Little girl mistakes bride for a real-life princess, and the photos are adorable

A stranger interrupting your wedding photos isn’t something most brides hope to encounter on their big day… except in this case.

This bride from Seattle, US, was posing for photos following her wedding ceremony, when a two-year-old girl and her mother walked by.

The two-year-old was overjoyed as she thought the bride was the princess from her favourite book.

Luckily, the bride and groom were happy to take a break from their photoshoot and spend a few minutes chatting to the starstruck toddler.

The couple’s wedding photographer Stephanie Cristalli was on hand to capture the heartwarming moment, which the groom later shared on Imgur.

“My wife and I got married last February, and during the photo shoot this little girl and her mom happened to be walking by,” he wrote. “The little girl thought my beautiful wife was the Princess from her favourite book (the one she’s holding).”

The groom also revealed that his wife had given the child a flower from her bouquet.

He also shared a romantic snap of the two of them at their wedding.

Since they were posted two days ago, the photos have received over 630,000 views and hundreds of positive comments about the couple’s unique wedding day story.
