The clip was shared on the couple’s joint TikTik account. It was captioned: ‘This was such a perfect kiss.’
After exchanging vows – which weren’t captured on camera – the officiant said to Eli, ‘You may now kiss the bride.’
However, instead of embracing in a passionate smooch at that moment, the couple turned towards their respective bridal parties to prepare.
The 19-year-old’s suit is brushed down, his shoes are polished, aftershave is applied and he gets a mist of breath spray.
Although the bride isn’t shown during the video, she was also being prepped by her bridal party.
After getting ready, Eli dashes towards Colette and kisses her as the crowd erupts in cheers.
Speaking to Newsweek, the Colette shared that while the unique moment may have looked natural, they made sure to practice it many times.
She said: ‘It was rehearsed a few times we had to make sure we were doing the right things and making sure everybody knew what they were supposed to do.’
