When a groom is super nervous for the first look at his bride, what's the best way to help ease his mind? Prank him with his best man in a wedding dress, of course! Well that's at least what happened when Sarah Pukin, of Sarah Pukin Photography, went to photograph a romantic, woodsy "first look" in Canmore, Alberta, Canada, for Tina and Keegan.
While Tina waited in the limo, Keegan’s best man got ready to give his friend a big surprise.
Instead of Tina walking down to tap her groom on the shoulder, Keegan turned around to find his best man in a borrowed wedding dress!
"Keegan’s face was perfect — the reaction was priceless and the moment is now truly one of my fondest, as it was almost impossible to keep my composure as he walked down towards Keegan," Sarah shared on her photography website. "I remember saying 'Don’t turn around yet, she’s almost here.'"
The whole thing was orchestrated by Keegan's family and the dress and veil had belonged to his aunt.
When Q107 asked the bride who came up with the idea, Tina said:
"It was Keegan’s family’s idea. I thought it was hilarious … I get asked that a lot because a lot of people think that it may have taken away from my day but I didn’t feel like that at all."
Obviously, everyone had a big laugh about it and they even posed for some super adorable "couple" photos.
We can only imagine how hard everyone was laughing.
Congrats to the real happy couple, Tina and Keegan!
We're sure their big day was one that they won't soon forget.
