Bride's wedding dress catches fire mid-ceremony: a fiery twist to the big day
On a supposed day of blissful celebrations, disaster struck for one bride when her dream wedding turned into a blazing inferno. Instead of throwing rice, guests were forced to throw buckets of water as the bride's gown went up in flames during a marriage ceremony, SSP reported.
Captured in a jaw-dropping TikTok post by L.A. wedding artist and content creator, Bailey, the incident depicted a shocking moment in which the newlywed couple, surrounded by lit candles lining the aisle, found themselves engulfed in a fierce blaze. The video attracted over 434,000 views as it highlighted the unexpected twist that left everyone in awe.
Bailey expressed her relief that no one was injured, emphasizing the fear and terror experienced at that moment. In the caption of the viral video, she revealed that she had been recording footage to accompany her painting timelapse when the catastrophe occurred. The priority was ensuring everyone's safety, and Bailey even rushed to grab a bucket of water to douse the flames.
Sadly, this isn't the first instance of fire crashing wedding ceremonies. Another bride, in her elegant brunette attire, narrowly avoided a fiery disaster when she accidentally brushed against decorative candles on her path to the altar. It serves as a reminder that not all wedding day combustions are accidents. Take the case of professional stunt doubles-turned-life partners Gabe Jessop and Ambyr Mishelle, who intentionally set themselves ablaze to celebrate their holy matrimony.
A recent inebriated celebrant brought an unexpected fiery spectacle to a couple's barnyard reception, unintentionally scorching floral centerpieces during a tipsy dance break.
Fortunately, Bailey reported that the fiery incident she witnessed was swiftly extinguished. Despite the dress being slightly damaged, the remarkable bride continued to smile through the ordeal. Interestingly, it was later discovered that several fire chiefs were among the attendees, and the bride trusted their expertise to manage the situation.
