A woman known as a serial wedding crasher for crashing weddings and stealing gifts in both Alabama and Mississippi has died, according to an obituary.

According to the obituary, Sandra Lynn Sanford Henson died Feb. 8 at the Magnolia Regional Medical Center in Corinth, about 15 minutes from Henson’s home in the small town of Rienzi, Miss., roughly 60 miles west of Florence, Ala.

She was 57 years old.

In December, Henson pleaded guilty to two counts of theft of property after she was arrested for crashing two weddings and stealing gifts in Lauderdale County.

Henson was sentenced to 31 months in state prison, fined a total of $12,500 and ordered to pay restitution of $570 and $650 to the two couples from who she had stolen wedding gifts. She was also sentenced to two years post-release supervision.

Henson’s attorney said at the time Henson was suffering from multiple medical conditions, having already suffered three heart attacks, a stroke and kidney failure, according to WHNT in Huntsville. Henson’s cause of death was not included in the published obituary.

Ultimately, the judge suspended most of Henson’s jail sentence, ordering her to serve two weekends in jail.

Henson’s career as a serial wedding crasher appears to have begun when she was convicted of stealing from a wedding in 2017 and sentenced to probation. In 2019, Henson was charged with two wedding crasher theft cases in Florence in 2019.

In those cases, Henson was charged with two counts of theft — one misdemeanor and one felony — although court records suggest those charges may have ultimately been dropped.

Florence police were contacted in the wake of the 2019 arrest by a dozen people from different weddings in Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi, each telling police they saw Henson at their receptions, helping herself to gift envelopes and money from purses inside the wedding party changing rooms.

Her proclivity for the wedding thefts earned Henson the nickname “Mid-south Wedding Crasher,” according to Memphis TV station ABC24.

Over the next two years, she would be charged in multiple other cases, ultimately leading to a conviction and a five-year prison sentence in Mississippi after a judge in Tennessee revoked her probation. Henson had pleaded for leniency due to health problems, but the judge said if she was healthy enough to crash weddings, she was healthy enough to go to prison, according to the Memphis report.

The Mississippi Department of Corrections database shows Henson was due to remain incarcerated until January 2025. It does not indicate when or why she was released.

Last October, Henson was again arrested, this time in Pontotoc County, Miss., after crashing and stealing from a wedding there. She was charged with petit larceny, trespassing and disturbing the peace. That case was still pending when she pleaded guilty in Alabama in December.
