Showy bride's surprise performance at Las Vegas ceremony chases 'shy' groom away

Here comes the bride — and off goes the groom!

Singer and content creator Ortal Edri posted a video on TikTok of her Las Vegas wedding held at Graceland Wedding Chapel. The ceremony featured her live renditions of Elvis Presley’s classic “Can’t Help Falling in Love” and Mariah Carey’s “My All.”

With the bride’s powerful voice and an Elvis impersonator adding to the spectacle, the “camera-shy” groom quietly faded into the background, capturing the attention and reactions of viewers online.

In her caption, Edri mentioned the surprise performance for her “shy husband,” noting she had to “chase him down the chapel” since he had vanished during the performance.

Edri told People in an interview, “My husband is quite shy and not fond of the spotlight, unlike me who thrives in it.”

“Honestly, he had a bit too much to drink before the ceremony and was slightly tipsy. That, combined with the pressure and excitement, left him just reacting in the moment,” she shared.

She also said that the awkward vibe was mostly due to the last-minute marriage ceremony.

The bride revealed in the interview, “From the time Shamir proposed to our wedding day, everything happened very quickly,” disclosing that her fiancé proposed just days before they tied the knot in Las Vegas.

Watching the cringeworthy video was enough to send people straight to the comment section to share their unsolicited opinions.

“I understand you’re getting married, but is he?” wondered one TikTok user, while another wrote: “Imagine being shy and your wife comes out here hooting and hollering.”

“The phone in his hand like he was calling for help, but it was too late,” said a commiserating commenter, prompting another reply to offer a helping hand: “Bro, blink twice if you need help.”

While some users busied themselves over-analyzing the duo’s dynamic and celebrating the bride’s confidence, a majority of TikTok comments attempted to summon popular comedy creator Madison Humphrey, who swifty recreated a parody of the viral moment — with Edri’s superimposed vocals.

Despite all the noise, Edri maintains that she and her husband loved their spontaneous Sin City ceremony, and some viewers did concede in the comments that her songs were a sweet gesture — they certainly indicated her “Burning Love” for him in true Elvis fashion.

As nervewracking nuptials go, this awkward watch barely skims the surface.

At the very least, Edri didn’t have a wedding cake smashed in her face by a moody mother-in-law like another recent bride — though the buttercream-laden bride’s new hubby also seemed to flee the scene, much like the Sin City singer’s.
