Neil Crossley, 60, was getting ready to walk his daughter Amy Totty, 30, towards the altar to start her new life as a married woman.
The bride looked stunning in an off-the-shoulder white dress as she got hitched at Holmfirth Vineyards in Yorkshire on October 4.
But in a moment of miscommunication between Neil and venue staff - her dad accidentally stole the limelight.
Neil began to walk up the aisle confidently - but he forgot one major detail, the BRIDE.

As he paced down the aisle to her husband-to-be Harry Totty, 29, without the blushing bride, people were left in hysterics.
He got right to the end of the aisle before venue staff walked up behind him to remind him the bride was meant to be by his side.
Fortunately, no vows were said between Harry and Neil in the mishap, and Amy was able to get her wedding moment.
The entire room was left in hysterics as Neil went back up the aisle to walk down a second time - this time with his daughter in tow.
