This bride pranked her groom by sending her brother for the ‘first look’ in her place, and you should see his reaction! Bride Heidi Zherelyev was preparing to have her first look photo shoot with groom Val, but everyone noticed that he was very nervous. To lighten the mood and ease her groom’s jitters, Heidi and her brother Eric decided to pull a prank. Eric dressed up in an old wedding dress, sprayed himself with perfume, and went to meet the groom instead.

“I was watching everything from the window of the bridal suite,” Heidi told the Metro. “I was trying so hard to be quiet but I couldn’t. It was just too funny. I’m so glad we have it all caught in photos.”

Eric told the Metro that, “When he turned around it was hilarious. We messed around and had a little photo shoot of our own.”

Honestly, Heidi and Val should frame these and hang them on a wall. They’re great!
