While they stood at the altar for their church wedding, a groom suddenly gave his bride a slap in the face.
The unexplainable moment was captured in a video shared by @esthernice2 on TikTok.
Before the slap, the groom appeared to lean closer to his wife as if trying to give her a kiss. But he didn't eventually kiss her and settled for a slap.
It is not clear what may have inspired his action as the audio of the video was not understandable and the clip didn't exceed 17 seconds. Mixed reactions have trailed the viral video.

In the short video lasting just 19 seconds, the bride was the first to land her man a slap and everyone present was stunned by her action.
As to what caused the hot slap, it appears the groom was force-feeding the bride and she tried to stop him. She slapped the man and he slapped her back which resulted in a fight that attracted wedding guests.
