A groom's brutally honest wedding speech exposing the 'secret' about the night he first met his wife has gone viral on TikTok.
Ian Young, 37, from Glasgow, decided to surprise his new wife Katie, 34, by sharing the embarrassing story with all their wedding guests.
Standing up in front of the crowd at Lochgreen Hotel in Troon, Ian thanked Katie before telling his gobsmacked guests he wasn't the only man who caught his now-wife's eye that night.
Ian sets his guests up by telling them that the couple shared their first kiss at Glasgow bar Oran Mor - but his wife can be seen holding her head in her hands.
He said: “I do feel Katie and I need to be a little more honest with you all today.
“David the celebrant mentioned that we met for the first time at the cricket club, got chatting and shared a kiss later that night.
“Whilst that is true, we left out a few bits along the way.”
The video pans toward Katie and shows her squirming as their guests begin to laugh.
Ian continued: “After that, I apologised for my lack of chat and although she’ll deny it to this day, she said to me, ‘Why don’t you take my number and we can meet up another time.’
Embarrassed Katie can be seen interjecting and tells the crowd: "I swear I didn't!"
Continuing on Ian quips: “A bit thirsty if you ask me – but I was so out of practice that I didn’t even take her number and instead went outside to get us a couple of drinks being the gentleman that I am.
"I went to the bar, bought the drinks, went back outside to give her her drink, only to find her snogging another guy.
“I realise now this is a fairly common occurrence for Kate,
“In true style of my own, I just downed the two drinks and went back on the dance floor.”
Speaking to the Record this morning, Ian explained how the happy couple were approached by their videographer who wanted to upload the video online.
He said: "It all just happened after our videographer messaged us last week and said he was planning on uploading some of his stuff onto social media and would we mind if he used our wedding speech.
"We agreed and didn't think much else of it and then it just exploded really. The reaction has just been really crazy and the last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind with all the comments and reactions.
"People have been so nice in the comments and said some really lovely things about Katie's dress that my mum made so it has just been a really nice experience for us all.
"The whole thing we meant tongue in cheek and people certainly seem to have seen the funny side of it all so we are really pleased."
The hilarious footage shared by Knoxland Films on TikTok has already amassed 1.5 million views since it was published on Sunday.
Delighted Tiktok users lined up to show their appreciation for the video in the comments section.
A woman said: "Imagine sleeping on the couch on your wedding night."
One person commented: “Imagine filing for divorce during the reception – never a good idea to embarrass the partner at the wedding.”
Someone else said: "I really want to know how they got back in touch after the groom went to the dance floor."
