This best man proposed at his friend's wedding

It is an unwritten rule that a couple is allowed to be the centre of attention at their wedding. This best man, however, didn't get that memo.

An anonymous reader of Dear Prudence had this happen to her at her wedding.

She wrote: "My husband’s best friend proposed to his girlfriend during our wedding ceremony John (best man/officiant) stopped midceremony to propose to his longtime girlfriend, “Jane,” and reveal her pregnancy. I couldn’t even hear the vows my husband wrote or the rest of the ceremony over the noise of Jane’s happy sobs, her very surprised family who were also guests, and people seated nearby congratulating her. Even the videographer cut to her frequently during the ceremony, and you can’t hear anything over the chatter.

"When John gave his toast, he apologized for being caught up in the moment, and then proceeded to talk about he and Jane’s future with nary a mention of us. During the reception John and Jane became the primary focus of our guests. John even went out of his way to ask the band for a special dance for just him and Jane on the dance floor." 

Social media went absolutely crazy about the column, as you can see below.
