A groom's unconventional wedding vows have become a social media sensation after being shared by the videographer who captured the memorable moment.
Traditionally, wedding vows serve as a heartfelt expression of profound love and emotion, a space for the bride and groom to share their deepest feelings in front of their nearest and dearest.
But for one groom, humor took center stage - and people aren't happy!
Jonathan Pajak, a videographer known as @lensculture on TikTok, recently posted a clip from a wedding he filmed featuring the groom, Michael, as he delivered his rather risqué vows to his bride, Destiny.
Prior to the ceremony, Pajak asked the groom, "Anything you want to say to your future bride?"
Michael responded cheekily, "I hope we have a lot of sex." He then initiated his vows by whispering, "You're screwed," followed by, "Only two things are required to keep me happy: Keep my belly full and my b***s empty. While you’re amazing at half of it, we really need to get you some cooking lessons."
Check out the video below:This post has since garnered over 19 million views, triggering a tidal wave of reactions in the comments section. While some expressed shock and disapproval at the groom's bold choice of words, it's vital to remember that every couple's dynamic is unique.
"I can't believe he said that," commented one person, stunned by his audacity to crack such jokes in front of their friends and family.
"Pardon?! In front of loved ones? In [front] of his parents?! That's HORRIFYING," somebody else wrote.
"That's actually disgusting.. i would walk right out of that wedding if i was the bride," one person added, with another commenting: "That's just... wow. I'm sorry for her."
Echoing similar sentiments, another added, "I'm not even kidding I would have walked away from that altar." Several viewers branded the situation with 'red flag' emojis, while one said, "I would have ended it there."
Despite the criticism, bride Destiny reassured everyone in the comments, "So [I'm] the bride and no, this isn't a red flag [...] we have been together for 10 years now and decided to get married right before our 10th year."
Indeed, amid all the skeptics, some viewers supported the couple's unique vows, emphasizing the importance of context.
In the full version of the video, Michael did share some genuinely heartfelt words with his bride, expressing, "With you and the girls by my side, I feel like I can conquer anything. You all make my life worth living; giving every breath of every day a purpose."
However, he returned to his joking demeanor with a risqué comment, which earned him a stern "Michael!" from his mother. What are your thoughts on Michael's unconventional vows? Join the discussion in the comments!
