Adam Sandler: Wedding Singer turns wedding crasher

The Hollywood star offered his congratulations to the couple on their wedding day

Kevin and Alex were never in danger of forgetting their wedding day, but now they will have a permanent reminder of a surprise twist - a shock cameo from Adam Sandler.

The Hollywood star was enjoying lunch with his family in Montreal when he crossed paths with a couple having their wedding photographs taken.

After a brief conversation, it came to pass that the bride and groom, dressed in a white gown and a sharp tuxedo, were photographed beside a mustachioed man in a white T-shirt and red shorts.

The photo was shared by a friend of the family on Reddit, where it has been upvoted more than 27,000 times.
