A bride-to-be’s bachelorette party was ruined after she was allegedly assaulted by a stranger while waiting for a ride outside a Texas nightclub.

A fundraising page on GoFundMe revealed that Canada Rinaldi, 27, was brutally attacked just a month before her wedding, resulting in a concussion, a broken nose, three chipped teeth, and eight stitches to her face.

The attacker came from behind.

Recalling the traumatic incident, Rinaldi shared with the local Fox affiliate KDFW, “So I remember walking towards the back of the car, and then I remember waking up in an ambulance. That’s all I remember.”

The fundraiser was initiated by Kirsten McDowell, a friend who was part of the group celebrating Rinaldi’s upcoming nuptials. The donations are intended to assist with the expenses incurred during Rinaldi’s hospitalization.

“Just 24 hours earlier, she had told us she was having ‘the best trip of her life,”” McDowell wrote. “That happiness was ripped away from her in an instant, turning it into the most terrifying and traumatizing night she’s ever experienced.”

Rinaldi, who lives in Oklahoma, racked up $10,000 in medical bills, McDowell said. She continues to recover and is hopeful her injuries will be cleared up by the time her wedding comes around.

“It’s just shocking,” she told Dallas ABC affiliate WFAA. “It’s hard to believe. I feel like a lot of my experiences were taken away from me.”

Meanwhile, the suspect remains at large. She told WFAA she didn’t know the man, nor did she understand why he attacked her. Her bridesmaid, Kelly Peralta, said in an interview with the TV station that she tried to intervene and ended up getting punched herself.
