Guests at a wedding this past weekend were in for a treat when Dara Ó Briain, the iconic comedian from Mock the Week, made a surprise appearance. At 52 years old, Dara is well known for his stand-up comedy career and his appearances on popular shows like The Panel and The Apprentice: You're Fired!
Currently on tour in the UK, Dara was performing at Woolwich Works in London when he received a last-minute message from a guest at the nearby wedding. The guest, James Ballardie, took to Twitter (formerly known as "X") to invite Dara to come say hello at the wedding happening just on the other side of Woolwich Works.
To everyone's delight, Dara accepted the invitation and made his way over to the wedding. James shared a sweet photo of the comedian with the guests, and Dara even took to Twitter to share his well wishes for the happy couple. "Best wishes to Catherine and Matt," he wrote, "It is tremendous luck to be blessed by a passing comedian on your wedding day."
Fans couldn't get enough of this heartwarming interaction and took to social media to express their excitement. "This is ridiculously lovely! Congratulations to the happy couple," said one fan. And it seems the groom himself, Matt Koris, was also thrilled with Dara's appearance. "Thank you so much for dropping in," he replied, "what an amazing thing. Love your work. A class act."
But Dara isn't the only celebrity to make a last-minute appearance at a wedding. In 2023, Coldplay's Chris Martin surprised a lucky couple when he was chased down by the bride. And in 2018, Tom Hanks famously showed up at a wedding photoshoot in Central Park while out for a run.
