Neustockimages/Getty A bride made an unforgettable entrance when she nearly took a tumble down the aisle at her wedding, causing wedding guests to react in shock "You could hear chairs squeak, silverware clink, and a few guests straight-up yelling, 'OH MY GOD!' like it was a football match," one wedding guest remembered in a post on Reddit The poster and fellow Redditors praised the bride for "owning it like a queen" by laughing off her stumble and continuing her walk down the aisle A bride nearly took a tumble down the aisle on her wedding day. In aposton Reddit's "Wedding Drama" forum, one of the wedding guests remembered "the bride's grand entrance... and even grander fall." Naturally, all eyes were on the "breathtaking" bride as her wedding processional music played and ceremony doors opened — but no one expected her to suddenly stumble. The "excitement building" for the bride's big entrance quickly turned to horror as family and friends of the bride and groom watched her trip in what felt like slow motion. Pixdeluxe/Getty "Everyone turns, phones out, gasps and smiles…" the wedding guest wrote. "And then right as she takes her first step onto the ballroom floor, her heel catches on something. Time slows down. She slips not a full crash, but enough of a stumble that she grabs her bouquet with both hands to steady herself, and a loud 'OH!' echoes across the hall." The guest clarified that it wasn't just one individual who loudly gasped at the bride's wedding nightmare. "The entire room collectively reacted," the Redditor noted. "You could hear chairs squeak, silverware clink, and a few guests straight-up yelling, 'OH MY GOD!' like it was a football match," the guest recalled. Luckily, the bride didn't panic and instead recovered "gracefully" by laughing it off. She gave the audience a "little twirl" and kept walking "like a queen" down the aisle to meet the groom, who would later joke in his speech at reception: "She fell for me, literally." "But wow… for a moment there, it was pure wedding drama," the guest concluded. "It ended up being a funny memory, but I swear, that 1.5 second slip felt like a full-length film."

"This is honestly the kind of moment that turns into a legendary family story," the top comment reads. "One second you're a vision in white, next second you're fighting gravity with a bouquet in hand. Props to her for owning it like a queen. Not everyone can fall and still rise like royalty." Another Redditor wrote: "Kudos to your cousin for the recovery and laughing it off. Plenty of brides let something like that ruin their entire night." Read the original article onPeople
