Lightning strikes as groom jokes about 2020 during vows

They say rain is a good omen on your wedding day, but what about lightning? This couple was surprised when the bolt of electricity flashed during their wedding ceremony.

Aaron Sawitsky and Denice McClure recently tied the knot in front of a small group in Massacheussets, USA.

As the groom was reading his written vows, guests were treated to a show. During his speech, Sawitsky says: “Let’s face it, 2020 has not been the best year.” Right on cue, Mother Nature cracks her whip and strikes lightning down right behind the wedding altar, as if in warning.

“Mother nature has one wry sense of humor,” Sawitsky wrote on Instagram. “Thankfully no one got electrocuted and we finished our vows before the rain started!”

Watch it happen:

Since the video was posted, it has gone viral. Many expressed what a memorable moment it is.

“Now, this is one of the wedding no one forget. Congratulations to you guys and I hope that the remaining part of 2020 is good for all of us,” commented one person.
