Many people believe that their wedding day will be the happiest and most significant day of their lives. Even if the day's major aspects are imprinted in memory for all time, the minor ones might be lost with time. The wedding ceremony must be preserved in its entirety, which is why wedding photos and movies are so important. One such couple was too excited when a monkey interrupted their photo shoot, leaving them both startled and laughing. The caption read: "Monkey crashes your wedding." 

When a curious monkey with a baby on its back chooses to disrupt the picture session, the groom can be seen whirling his wife for a romantic video. The monkey initially approaches the bride, who is scared and turns away. The monkey then climbs on the groom's hand with its baby and settles into his lap. It's as though the monkey wanted to be clicked as well. In the meantime, the composed groom holds them and smiles while posing for photos with them. Later, the bride becomes at ease around the monkey and gives it a kind touch. The primate and her baby follow along as the pair begins their photo session. Social media users have shared the video widely and left several humorous comments. People admired the pair for being kind and patient with the monkeys rather than shooing them away and adoring their healthy relationship.

One user said, "With the baby on her back. Girl you are officially a Disney princess I don't make the rules." Another said, "If your partner is charming the local wildlife you've chosen the right one. What greater endorsement is there than a mother animal bringing its baby into your arms?" Third said, "Monkey is declaring prima nocta, but with the Dude." However, this isn't the only instance where these amazing creatures have crashed a wedding. In Sao Paulo, Brazil, a furry wedding crasher not only stole the bride's big moment but also her groom's heart! According to The Dodo, Marlia and Matheus Pieroni had hoped for an outdoor wedding, but things had to alter because of the bad weather. The newlyweds relocated the celebrations under a tent to keep their guests and the bride's dress dry, which a tired and soggy street dog also appeared to think was a very good idea.

The stray entered the private gathering as guests and relatives started to take their seats. The muddy-pawed dog got even more desperate to attend the wedding as guests and ushers sought to send him outside. “As the ceremony started, to everyone’s surprise, it was the dog who came in when the bridal chorus began to play,” Marília told The Dodo. When it was time for Marlia and Matheus to make their vows, the unwanted visitor made his presence "official" by lying down directly on top of the bride's veil, despite the fact that he was once more talked out of the soiree.

If it isn't the most genuine, unadulterated expression of canine love, we don't know what is. And evidently, the pair shared those sentiments. Later on that evening, Marlia and Matheus decided to adopt the dog as their pet. It was their first joint choice as husband and wife. “We decided to adopt him because he is a street dog,” Marília told The Dodo. “It took us a long time to find him again, but yesterday, we were contacted and told his whereabouts.” The couple finally united with their long-lost love. They gave him the name Snoop, and we have a feeling that this is the beginning of a lovely friendship.
