Weddings are usually remembered for tearful vows, blinding décor, and upbeat dance routines but one recent wedding went viral for a completely different reason. In a clip that’s now making its way around social media, a mature rhinoceros strolled into what looked like a wedding reception rather nonchalantly, catching guests off guard and becoming the center of attention in an instant.
The bizarre experience has been caught on camera and posted by the Instagram account ‘nepalinlast24hr’, gaining thousands of views and comments within hours. The date and place of the incident, however, are not determined.

Internet Bursts Into Laughter
Of course, social networkers replied in typical internet fashion with jokes and sarcasm. One called the rhino a “Wild card entry,” another said, “That’s what they mean by making an entrance.” A third joked, “When the invitation states ‘everyone is invited’ and nature brings it seriously.”
Others maintained the levity. “Looks like he came to bless the couple,” one fan posted, to which another responded, “Forget baraatis — this was a barah-ton entry.” Another cracked, “Hope they had a return gift waiting for him.”
From Blessings to Dance Floors
Others also surmised where the wedding would be held, with some speculating that it could be near a jungle or forest preserve. “When your wedding is too near the jungle, this is what you get,” one observer commented.
Throwing in some additional chuckles, someone pictured the rhino set to party: “Perhaps he was seeking the dance floor,” while someone else celebrated the moment with, “The actual VIP has arrived.” One viewer simply couldn’t resist making light of the dress code, saying, “That rhino clearly didn’t receive the memo concerning formal wear.”
The incident also gave rise to a fresh brand of wedding jitters, with one writing, “New fear unlocked: wildlife crashing my wedding.” While envisioning the DJ’s dilemma, another said, “Imagine being the DJ and trying to keep the vibe going during that!”
While the enigmatic rhino’s visit was brief, it left quite an indelible mark — one that neither the guests nor the internet is likely to forget in the near future.
