Yes. As Crystal walked out of the glen and across a footbridge over Dempsey Creek, the flower girl sprinkled rose petals at her feet while country western singers played guitars and sang love songs. The subject of the sentence preceeding that statement is the flower girl, not Crystal. The reader shouldn't be left to resolve such quandries on his own. Its very awkward phrasing.

And I'm a sucker for sentimental tripe.
I can be a sucker for sentimental tripe, myself. I like my sentimental tripe to be well written, however.
