Stephen Harper crashes Ottawa wedding

"Three black cars all in a row pull into the parking lot. And someone jokingly says, 'I bet you it's the Prime Minister or something,'" Kelly wrote in her blog. "We laugh, and move on with our photo taking." (Photo courtesy of Laura Kelly)

"But then as the cars were preparing to leave the little parking lot (that couldn't have held more than 20 cars or so), they stopped. And 20 seconds went by. And wouldn't you know it, Mr. Stephen Harper himself came over to wish the Bride & Groom a happy wedding day!" (Photo courtesy of Laura Kelly)

Prime Minister Stephen Harper took a queue from President Obama's playbook and crashed an Ottawa wedding party's photo session. Photographer Laura Kelly quickly explains what was so funny in our favourite of the viral photos.

"Best part of the this whole interaction:
Harper: 'So, have you already done it?'
Pat (the groom): 'Nope, first time!'"

"Lol, Pat thought he was asking whether either of them had ever been married before, when really he was just asking if they had already had their wedding ceremony! Maybe you had to be there, it was hilarious." (Photo courtesy of Laura Kelly)

"He was such a great sport for offering to be in a couple photos with the whole wedding party. Now picture me with 2 security guards on either side of me taking this picture lol..." (Photo courtesy of Laura Kelly)
