Bobby Cook and Ciara O'Donnell seem to be breaking age-old traditions as the couple decided to swap wedding roles. The wedding saw Bobby walking down the aisle wearing a white gown and a tiara, and on the other hand Ciara waited for him in her three-piece suit. The couple from Swansea, UK became the talk of the town and the internet for their role reversal in their wedding.
Speaking to international media Bobby said the plan was born when Ciara refused to walk down the aisle on her wedding day since she had a lifelong dream of getting married in a suit. Bobby even took her family name, he added. The couple kept their plan a secret from nearly all the guests until the big day. The pan came as a surprise to the groomsmen who had no idea that they would be wearing gowns. Though, the bridesmaid knew that she had to don a tuxedo. Bobby said that he did not let his friends try the outfits on before as he knew that they would have backed out. He added that his friends, however, loved the outfit and cried tears of bemusement when they saw the dresses.
T-Rex bridesmaid
Another bizarre wedding that the netizens saw was with a T-Rex bridesmaid. The bride's sister surprisingly wore a dinosaur costume for her wedding. Speaking to a UK media publication, Christina said that her elder sister Deanna Adams gave her near and dear ones the option of wearing anything they felt comfortable to her wedding. She shared that about a year ago her elder sister from Nebraska reiterated the same thing to her telling her that she wanted her to be the maid of honor and that she could wear anything she felt comfortable into the ceremony.
Deanna knew that Christina is not fond of wearing formal dresses and that Christina wouldn't have a lot of money to buy something really nice. Considering this, her elder sister gave her the liberty of not sticking to a prescribed dress code, said Christina. But who knew that the freedom of choosing one's own dress would lead to getting a T-Rex costume instead! Christina shared that she initially wanted to buy something that she could wear more than once and not just for the wedding. Later, she resorted to dressing like a dinosaur. When she shared the idea with her sister, she was ok with it much to her surprise!
