Groom Divides Internet After TikTok Video Of Him Spraying Bride With Champagne Goes Viral

Video of a groom spraying his new wife in the face with champagne during their wedding reception sparked a heated debate online.

We can all agree that weddings are atrociously expensive to plan and host, and sometimes they're equally expensive to attend when it's a destination wedding!

That's one of the key reasons that the new wave of wedding pranks, like grooms smashing cake into their wives' faces or grooms shoving their brides into pools, has received so much pushback. Granted, it comes off as disrespectful, but it is also a huge waste of money.


But a groom's recent actions left the internet debating whether or not it was enough to ruin the big day or get the groom canceled.

During what appeared to be an expensive destination wedding, the bride and groom were standing next to a beautiful, understated, berry-covered wedding cake, framed in with a lovely view of a lake.

The groom then held up a bottle of champagne and opened it, the couple giddily screaming as the champagne shot up into the air. The groom covered the mouth of the bottle with his thumb to make it spray.

The bride danced around it, until the groom turned the spray to target it at her face.

She held up her hands to block the spray before turning her back on it as wedding attendees cheers quickly changed to shouts of horror. The groom stopped spraying, took a long drink from the bottle, and then shook it up again, passing it to his wife to do the same back to him.

The video ended with her trying to spray him, but since the pressure was gone from initially opening the champagne bottle, she wasn't able to get a sparkly revenge on her husband.

The interaction was caught by the bride's new sister-in-law, Emmy, and because of the backlash, the video was taken down from TikTok. But not before the video was cross-posted on other platforms.

Redditor Brilliant_Bill9762 shared the video on the "Wedding" subReddit, asking:

"Groom sprays bride with champagne in the face. Ok or not?"
from wedding

The subReddit was miffed over the prank and could only imagine how disrespectful the marriage would be based on this.

"What on earth would ever make this okay???" - VirtualTea19

"Not okay. She will smell like champagne all day long and will probably feel sticky, too. She does not look pleased, either." - geekette1

"I was thinking of how much $$ that magnum of champagne cost and what an atrocious waste it is. Ugh." - thevelveteenbeagle

"If they discussed it beforehand and she was enthusiastically on board, sure. I think that’s unlikely." - pedanticlawyer

"That douchebag deserves to be thrown in the lake." - flirtybabyblues

"Looks like a destination wedding, maybe even in Lake Como or somewhere similar $$, I think she’s probably absolutely livid. All your makeup would be f**ked, your hair would be sticky, etc." - MmPeachPie

"I felt upset just watching this. I don't want to imagine if it was myself. This is just a high-end version of the face cake-smashing. Distasteful and messy." - TinyTurtle88

"Many people were saying, at least it's not cake smashing, but how is this different? In fact, it's just as bad. People are allured by the gilded glamour of the wedding at Lake Como, but if it was beer in a barn, would they also think this? My opinion." - Brilliant_Bill9762

"I’d be f**king pissed and getting an annulment." - x3whatsup

"I never understand why it’s the bride that has to be humiliated like this. Why not spray the groomsmen or guys in the family or something?" - One-Yard-757

Eric Rivera on X/Twitter agreed with the subReddit's feelings, reposting the video with simply:

"Come on, man. Like. No."

But the rest of Twitter thought the prank was much more lighthearted than the internet had given it credit for.








The wave of attention got back to the happy couple who was already on their honeymoon.

The groom, who was actively being "canceled" by a lot of people, had to set his Instagram account to private.

Before he made his Instagram private, the groom shared an unbothered, smiling photo with his wife in an Instagram story:

"Day one of honeymoon: I'm getting cancelled on the internet for having fun [with] my wife."

As the more positive people on X pointed out, the couple had already been together for eight years and likely knew what their partner liked and found funny.

Also, while the bride may have been "grinning and bearing it" in the moment, she may have also been genuinely happy to get the party started, especially when she got into position for the groom to pour champagne into her mouth.

We don't all have to like the same things, and that includes how our wedding days go.

Support stands at 33%, with opposition particularly strong among Democrats—98% oppose it, while just 1% support it.
