A bride's big day became even more memorable when an elephant invaded the wedding ceremony and put her head in its mouth.
After the Australian woman tied the knot in the Thai resort of Phuket, she walked up to the exotic uninvited guest.
But when she was a few feet away, the three-year-old Indian elephant wrapped its trunk around her and pulled her towards its mouth.

The surreal moment was met with screams of laughter from guests and by-standers.
And it did not do the bride – who had travelled from Melbourne for her wedding – any damage other than a dose of bad breath, as the elephant soon let her go.
The comic scene was captured on camera by Australian filmmaker Abraham Joffe.
"She wasn't injured," he stated.
"It just licked her face and breathed down her throat."
"She just got this horrible elephant breath in her lungs. everybody was laughing. She was a bit shaken up."
"She was a little bit embarrassed but they were all pretty laid back, being Aussies. It wasn't a prim and proper sort of day."
