President Obama Crashed a Couple's Wedding and Of Course It Was Incredible

​Have a seat, Vince Vaughn. Our Commander in Chief just became the greatest wedding crasher of all time. 

When Stephanie and Brian​ (who chose not to reveal their last name to the press) picked a date and location for their wedding, they had no idea it would bring them close to President Barack Obama. As they told ABC 2, they were aware the president would be golfing in the San Diego area where they were planning their nuptials, but didn't think they'd actually cross paths.

Brian and Stephanie were getting married at the ​Torrey Pines Golf Course​ in La Jolla. They assumed the president was golfing at another course, but when they spotted secret service SUVs, the realized he was closer than they thought. Then, they got a huge surprise. 

The final putt of President Obama's golf game just so happened to be behind their wedding altar. When he was finished with the game, he walked right up to their wedding party and started shaking hands with excited guests who were waiting for the ceremony to start. Brian and Stephanie were hidden away in a bridal suite inside, watching everything from a window. When Stephanie saw him shaking hands she decided to make a dash to get his attention, running out onto the course in her heels and dress (and followed closely by Brian).

​"I was just hoping that they'd notice my wedding dress," she said.​​ ​"And it would just be the last chance....You don't get this chance very often so why not just go for it."

Stephanie said she was in tears while the crowd cheered her on. When he finally met up with her, he congratulated the newlyweds on their wedding. Then he offered the groom some important advice. 

​"He saw my foot on the train of the wedding dress and he says oops 'can't put your foot on the wedding dress there.' Little piece of advice, pretty funny," Brian said.​

Wedding photographers Jeff and Erin Youngrens caught the entire experience on camera and told the story of how it all happened on their blog:

​Suddenly, I realized that I didn't want to be caught behind the camera and completely miss a life moment – I HAD to shake this man's hand. So I grabbed myself a spot in the line, and the President reached out his hand – to ME. In disbelief, I shook it with my best hand shake that I had been practicing for years and stammered, "It is such an honor to meet you Mr. President." He has a GREAT handshake.[...]​President Obama, you are my hero for taking a moment to make this a day when a beautiful couple not only got to marry the love of their lives but have the moment of their lives. Thank you – beyond words. Thank you!

He couldn't stay for the whole wedding but managed to make their wedding even more magical. 

​"To see a sitting president, I was just crying going up there," Stephanie said. "It was awesome."
