Weddings are not only one of the most significant moments of one’s life, they’re also the most stressful. Seeing her groom’s nerves get the best of him, Heidi Zherelyev decided to pull a photo prank on him to brighten up the mood. “His palms were sweaty. He was trembling,” Heidi told 12news. And as the pictures show, it really helped!
As soon as the groom Val turned around to take the first look at his bride, it wasn’t Heidi that met his gaze. It was her brother, Eric. The groom’s reaction was captured by photographer Nichole Cline and we’re so glad she did! Scroll down below to check out the hilarious prank.
