Drama as 5 people struggle to wear gown for bride on wedding day (Video)

The behind-the-scenes struggle of a plus size bride to fit into her wedding dress caught attention online after the video was shared.
In the video shared online on Okobioko’s Facebook page, the plus-size bride was seen stressing a lot to wear her wedding gown.
About five people were seen in the video working together to put the bride’s dress on, but it was difficult. Devising a strategy, a paper bag was slung over the bride’s head along the way to help speed things up.
When the plus size bride finally put on her wedding gown, the people began to tighten it while she maintained her composure. The bride was later seen dancing with the groom at the very end of the clip, looking stunning in her dress.
