Watch the moment teary christening guests realise they are attending a surprise wedding.

When Joe, 27, and Tori Taylor, 25, invited friends and family to the christening of their six-month-old son Billy only a handful of people knew about their heartwarming planned surprise.

The newlyweds have revealed upon entrance to Studley Parish Church, in Warwickshire, Joe told guests that his soon-to-be wife was "running late" as they took to their seats."

Then just moments later Tori walked the aisle to their shock.

The couple, from Studley, came up with the idea to combine their son's special day with their wedding day whilst planning Billy's celebration, saying it "just felt right"."

They have since said the moment was "magical" with Tori revealing the audible gasp when loved ones saw her walk down the aisle gave her "goosebumps"."

Tori said: "It wasn't easy (to keep the secret) but no one was asking questions which helped. "

"Our friends and family really had no idea."

"Only one friend joked that we might be 'the type to do a surprise wedding' but otherwise no one suspected a thing. "

"The atmosphere in the church at that moment they all realised, is something we'll carry with us forever."

Joe and Tori have told they came up with the surprise whilst planning their son Billy's christening.

They had been planning to tie the knot ever since Joe popped the question and said combining the moment "felt right"."

Joe said: "We were already planning our son's christening for July when the idea came to us - why not get married during the same ceremony."

"We've always wanted to be married simply to be united as a family, without the stress or fuss that can come with a traditional wedding. "

"We decided to keep it a surprise, only telling our parents, the maid of honour, and the best man. "

"The people who would be there to celebrate our son were the very people we'd want to witness our marriage -so it just felt right."

The couple revealed only their parents, the best man, and the maid of honour knew about their secret plan.

Tori said: "We told them our idea right from the start, they were all very supportive of us getting married this way, they loved the idea of the surprise."

Though to the shock of the newlyweds, they have revealed that planning the event in this way was "surprisingly easy" only taking them three months setting the date for July 19 2025."

Tori said: "No guests were expecting a wedding so there was zero pressure and no set expectations. "

"It turned into a relaxed, stress-free experience which was nice."

When the day arrived the couple have told Joe welcomed guests to the church as if it was just a christening, but was coming up with "excuses" for why Tori was running late. "

They said it "wasn't easy" keeping the surprise a secret but "no guests were asking any questions" which they said helped keep their lips sealed."

Then 10 minutes after the 95 guests had taken their seats, Tori walked the aisle with her dad, Bill.

Recalling the moment Tori said it was "magical"."

She said: "It was honestly more magical than we ever imagined. "

"The audible gasp from our family and friends gave me goosebumps. "

"Our friends and family were shocked in the best possible way - they were emotional and so happy for us."

"But most of all our grandparents' reactions meant everything to us. "

"Having them there on such a meaningful day was incredibly special, and seeing their surprise and emotion is something we'll never forget."

The couple worked alongside wedding videographer Karl Mitchell, 32, to capture the emotional moment.

Karl, from Stockport, in Manchester, said: "Seeing that moment when the penny dropped for the guests and the emotion just filled the room - you can't script that. "

"Also knowing that it was so important to Tori and Joe to have those reactions on film made it even more special as the person capturing it all."

"Keeping it a secret was definitely a challenge but also really exciting. "

"A few guests were curious on the day about what I was doing, so I had to think on my feet and when they asked me, I said I was filming promo material for the church."

"I have filmed a lot of special moments over the years but this was the first time I had been part of a surprise wedding like this. "

"The ceremony is always quite heartfelt anyway but this one was something else."

"It honestly gave me goosebumps."

Following the wedding Billy was christened and the family enjoyed celebrations at their reception.

Karl has since posted the clip onto social media page, Mitchell Films, and it has since clocked over 600,000 likes.

He said the

reaction to the video has been "overwhelming"."

He said: "I have had messages from people halfway across the world saying it moved them to tears."

One person commented on the video saying: "I'm not sure what is more beatiful, the fact that they are getting married or the fact so many people turned up for them."

Another said: "Can you image being so deeply loved by that many people? They will carry that forever."

One other person commented: Crying for internet strangers.

Another person commented: "How lovely, it brought a tear to my eye."

Tori said: "We're so grateful to Karl for capturing this once-in-a-lifetime moment so beautifully."

"It's something we'll treasure forever."
