Synopsis by Hal Erickson
On Her Wedding Night is when young society bride Helen Carter (Edith Storey) abruptly becomes a widow. In fact, she is on the phone with her new husband Denton (Denton Vane) when he is shot and killed. The sole witness to the crime, Italian immigrant Carlo Picalli (William Dunn), is so shocked by the experience that he loses his memory, at which point he is "adopted" by Denton's best friend Henry Hallem (Antonio Moreno), who also appoints himself Helen's protector. Together, Henry and Denton manage to uncover the murderer's identity, whereupon the grateful Helen agrees to marry Henry, who of course has been in love with her all along.
