Wedding guests and netizens were left dumbfounded after a clip of a mother getting proposed to during her daughter's wedding went viral. In the TikTok video that has been viewed over 1.2 million times, user Chloe Robinson captured the moment when she pretended to throw her wedding bouquet to the crowd but instead gave it to her mother. "Dear Mum, it’s your time now," Chloe wrote in the comments of the video.
The bride, Chloe, in a custom that has thrilled for hundreds of years, was ready to throw the flowers behind her to the guests' cheering faces. It usually implies that whoever receives the bouquet will walk down the aisle next. Chloe quickly descended the stairs to present the flowers to her mother, who was startled by the sudden turn of events.
