<p>Local government official Sakib Al-Rabby said the bride was not with the group when the incident occurred on Wednesday in Shibganj in Chapainawabganj district.</p>
<p>He said the group had just left their boat to take refuge because of the thunderstorm when they were struck.</p>
<p>The area is about 150 miles north-west of Dhaka.</p>
<p>The annual monsoon is currently under way in Bangladesh. Each year more than 200 people, mostly farmers in their fields, are killed by lightning.</p>
<p>Experts say worsening air pollution and global warming are contributing to an increase in the frequency of lightning strikes in the country.</p>
