Few things can stir up trouble at a wedding like these three: a mother of the bride or groom wearing white, proposing to your partner amid the festivities and the notorious bridal bouquet toss that's been known to spark a scuffle or two. Yet, at Chloe Robinson's wedding, it was this very recipe for disaster that made it a memorable event for all her guests. A video—going viral on TikTok with more than 1.5 million views since being uploaded earlier this month—shows the heartwarming moment from Robinson's wedding when her mom was left speechless by a surprise proposal.

Robinson took eventful weddings to a new extreme during her bouquet toss when she tricked those waiting to catch the wedding bouquet. The video shows the blushing bride pretending to get ready to throw it before rushing over to her mom and handing the flowers to her. As you know, the bouquet toss—a tradition that has excited wedding guests for hundreds of years—is said to determine who would be next to walk down the aisle by whoever catches the bouquet. Although Robinson's family and friends were momentarily stunned by her actions, they erupted into cheers moments later when her mom's partner got down on one knee and popped the question.

Although it's generally considered a social faux pas to propose on someone else's wedding day, this beautiful proposal has fans "holding back tears," as the bride explained why she wanted her mother to share her big day. "She gave me away so I wanted her to match me," Robinson shared in a comment in response to one that reads: "How selfless of the bride on her day." This probably also explains why she must've had her mother also wear a white dress to her wedding. "Dear Mum, it's your time now," the newlywed penned in another comment.

The wholesome video is now flooded with hundreds of teary-eyed comments, praising the bride for sharing the limelight with her mother. "The way you just stepped back and let the focus be on her on your day, legit sat crying my eyes out you're beautiful," wrote one TikTok user. "How wonderful of you to share your special day with your mom. Congratulations to you both," commented another while a third added: "I don't get why anyone wouldn't want this one their day, it's beautiful."

"Honestly I wouldn't care if someone purposed at my wedding, it's x2 the fun," gushed another TikTok user as another observed: "So not a 'not on MY day', 'no kids rule', 'it's all about me'... kind of bride." Another TikTok user echoed these sentiments in a comment that reads: "I absolutely love this. Pure class and wholesomeness. Brides who are self-absorbed ruin their own weddings." Meanwhile, many admitted that the clip had brought them to tears. "You are such a beautiful human! Sharing your happiest day with your mum's happiest day, absolutely balling my eyes out! Congratulations to you ALL," wrote one person.

"Don't know if it's my pregnancy hormones but I can't stop crying, so cute," admitted another. "What a wonderful tribute to your relationship with your mother," commented one social media user. "As a wedding planner, this is one of the most honest and selfless things a bride can do on her Perfect Day.. congratulations," reads another comment.
