Tom Hanks Photobombs Bride's Wedding Day Shoot

When a bride is taking wedding photographs with her bridesmaids, the last thing you would expect is to be is photobombed by a Hollywood superstar.

Well, to the lucky bridesmaids who were taking snaps outside the Fairmont Hotel in Pittsburgh US last weekend, Oscar winning actor Tom Hanks showed up along with his wife Rita Wilson, joining the bride Grace Gwaltney, before taking photos with her.

Describing this encounter as "crazy", Gwaltney said that she "immediatley froze" when she saw Hanks. 

“He was talking in my ear, and I was thinking of Toy Story", she said. 

“When it first happened we were all confused and it didn’t click for a second", the photographer Rachel Rowland said. "Most of us stared quietly for a second. Then we all erupted in screams”.

She continued, “He found me and asked me to take a photo with the bride and then yelled for all of the bridesmaids to get off the limo for the photo. He was exactly as you would assume him to be, joyful, funny, loud and kind".
