After His Girlfriend Catches The Bride's Bouquet, This Male Guest Sprints In The Other Direction

Sep 19, 2018

We've all heard of the concept of "cold feet," but what if you get them before you're even married? This boyfriend is the perfect example.

It all started at someone else's wedding. He and his girlfriend were at their friend's wedding. Chelsea and Matt Best celebrated their special day in Kettering, which is in the Northampton region of the U.K.

At the end of the event, Chelsea then threw her bouquet. That's a super old tradition. It means that whatever girl catches the bouquet will be the next one to get married.

Unfortunately, the boyfriend wasn't interested in getting married. So he just took off! As soon as his girlfriend caught the bouquet, he started running.

Rachel Besley looked beautiful in an orange gown. Out of all the other ladies, she alone was able to catch those flowers. She jumped for joy - until her boyfriend Daniel Gilbert decided to book it.

Poor girl! Guess she knows how her relationship stands. It seems like Daniel is quite the commitment-phobe.

For better or worse, this couple is actually in good company. The video started going viral after it was posted on Mail Online. Many commenters said that sadly, they'd be in the same boat.

Tossing the bouquet might be a tradition now, but it actually comes from a pretty weird source. They were originally meant as a distraction! Apparently, at weddings, people would try to touch the bride's gown and rip it off. The guests would be so busy trying to get those flowers that the bride could make her escape.

Of course, then she'd be able to spend a night of passion with her new husband. The wedding night is its own tradition! Most brides look forward to it...unless their boyfriend runs off first.

What's the weirdest thing you've ever seen at a wedding? Pass this on to your friends and loved ones and see if you can exchange funny stories.
