On 25 July, Jessica Ryan Smith and Kevin Kennedy Ryan said ‘I do’ in the heart of summer in Chicago, however their first kiss was interrupted when they heard a loud thud behind them. Kevin’s 16-year-old sister and the bridesmaid, Grace Ryan, passed out before she could see her big brother seal the deal on his nuptials.
Kevin told ABC News, that he had thought it was the hottest day of the year and his sister had collapsed partly because they had been in the sun taking pictures.
As the judge said, “you may kiss the bride”, Grace collapsed and the moment was captured perfectly by the couple’s photographer, Sean Cook.
The high school student’s high heels slipped off her feet as she fell face down with another bridesmaid disapprovingly looking on. According to her brother, Grace got up to her feet with a little help and was taken down to the bridal party room for refreshments, as the wedding continued without her.
Grace’s dizzy spell has broken the internet with over 2 million people viewing the picture, which was uploaded by her big brother on Imgur.
A wedding is never short on antics, however this image has to go on to be one of the most unusual moments captured. Her face was, luckily, hidden away, thanks to the newlywed’s kiss, but we bet she’s still dying of embarrassment.
