A farmer's bride in England has given guests a wedding entrance they are unlikely to forget, arriving at church not by car or carriage, but on the back of her favourite cow.
The ceremony, which took place in Somerset, saw Victoria Lee make her way to the church doors atop the beloved animal, dressed in her full wedding gown.
Rather than a traditional bridal car or horse-drawn carriage, she opted for a mode of transport that spoke directly to who she is: a farmer with a deep bond with her animals.
BBC reported that the bride, who farms alongside her family, wanted her entrance to reflect her everyday life.
The cow she chose was not simply a prop for the occasion but an animal she genuinely cares for and works with regularly.
Footage shared by BBC captured the moment she arrived at the church, seated calmly on the cow as onlookers watched in delight.
The animal appeared relaxed throughout, seemingly unfazed by the crowd, the cameras, or the occasion.
Guests were both surprised and charmed by the gesture, with many describing it as perfectly in keeping with the bride's personality.
The entrance quickly became the talking point of the wedding, with the cow drawing as many admiring looks as the bride herself. For those who know the couple, the moment felt entirely authentic rather than a stunt staged for attention.
The entrance stood as a reminder that weddings, at their best, are a reflection of the people getting married, and for this bride, life on the farm is not something she leaves at the gate.
