A bride and groom in Boston made a jump back in time on their wedding day, when a group of people dressed in traditional colonial clothing from the Revolutionary War era crashed their photoshoot.

Footage captured by Greg Whitmer shows a group of individuals wearing attire from the late 1700s in the streets of Boston when they spotted a bride and groom taking pictures on the sidewalk.

“The group of people then joined the bride and groom spontaneously to take a wedding photo together,” Whitmer told Storyful.

“I did not know anyone in the video. And the bride and groom did not know the group of people that they encountered in the moment. It was all a totally spontaneous moment on the streets of Boston.”

A rowdy deer broke into a Christmas store in Jonesborough, Tennessee, on Friday, December 5, before getting wedged in a chair and escorted outside.

The Jonesborough Police Department said on Facebook that officers were called to Gabriel’s Christmas and More early in the morning to usher out the rogue deer.

“Only in Jonesborough would one of Santa’s Reindeer come barreling through the front door of Gabriel’s Christmas, clearly three sips too deep into the Holiday Spirits and making terrible life choices,” the post said.

“Once inside, he took a grand tour: sniffed the ornaments, inspected the garland, side-eyed a nutcracker, and galloped around like he was trying to remember where he parked the sleigh.

“Jonesborough PD showed up, made contact and said, ‘Sir… Although it’s almost Christmas, you can’t act like this in a Main Street Christmas establishment,’ and gently escorted our tipsy legend back outside once he decided to wedge himself in the middle of an easy chair.”

The deer ran off into the night once he was freed.
