Rukmini was actually a Queen of Krsna. She wrote a letter to him telling him of her love for him, and he came to her marraige ceremony and kidnapped her and married her. She originally was going to marry a Prince named Sishupala, whom Krsna later killed; it was Rukmini's evil brother, Rukmi, who arranged for her marraige to Sishupala.
