Bridesmaid walks down aisle with suited man and then people spot who he is

Weddings are delightful celebrations that bring tremendous joy and excitement. The happy couple spend their special day gazing adoringly at one another, the beverages typically flow freely, emotions may run high during the heartfelt speeches, but once the dance floor beckons, everyone's ready to let loose and celebrate after such an exhilarating day.

However, what would your reaction be if a genuinely famous person turned up at a weddingyou were attending? When bridesmaids make their way down the aisle, they're typically accompanied by one of the groomsmen - regardless of whether they're romanticallyinvolved or not.

So when one lady served as a bridesmaid at her mate's nuptials, she never anticipated being partnered with an incredibly attractive gentleman (and celebrity!).

Looking absolutely stunning, the woman was attired in a pale green satin gown, with her makeup and hair styled flawlessly.

However, it was her aisle buddy that set people talking once they recognised his identity.

The attractive gentleman appeared exceptionally smart and was sporting a double-breasted stone-hued suit with a matching tie.

It was actually Niall Horan, 32, from One Direction – and observers were astounded by what they witnessed.

X user @sammy1714 posted a photograph of the duo proceeding down the aisle together, writing: "Imagine being a bridesmaid at a wedding and the groomsman you're paired up with is Niall Horan".

Niall Horan grabbed the microphone later on in the evening, delivering a karaoke performance at his mates' wedding celebration.

@b****zone61 shared on Instagram: "Later at the reception, he slipped back into familiar territory, taking the mic to deliver a surprise performance.

"Blending celebration with song, Niall turned the evening into something even more unforgettable, proving he can light up a stage just as easily as he can walk down one".

Guests were stunned when Niall made his way down the aisle, with many having no clue he'd be there. One quipped: "This is the kind of stuff that happens in my dreams".

Another penned: "The bride must be very in love with her partner because best believe that if Niall Horan was at my wedding, I'm inviting HIM to stand in the front with me".

A Niall admirer jested: "Do you think Niall does weddings like - as the groom? Cause this is my formal invitation for him to lock in".

But the only girl Niall is expected to wed anytime soon is his girlfriend Amelia Woolley, whom he started seeing in 2020.

The pair keep their romance mostly out of the spotlight – but they have been photographed together at occasions such as Wimbledon.
