The Oscar winner delighted a bride on Saturday by joining her bridal party for photos outside the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Pittsburgh as he passed.
“He said, ‘Hey! I’m Tom Hanks. I’d like to take a picture with you,’ and I immediately froze and just looked around,” bride Grace Gwaltney told local news station KCRA. “I did not know, what I should do.”
“It’s his voice, I think. You see him and then he starts talking and he said, “You look so beautiful. I’m so happy for you,'” she added. “When he spoke in my ear, I thought of ‘Toy Story’.”
“We all lost it,” Rowland said. “The bridesmaids shuffled out of the limousine and he posed [for] Photos and congratulations to everyone and as soon as he got in he was gone.”
The actor is currently in the area to shoot the movie A Man Called Otto.
Gwaltney said she and her sister happened to be chatting about Hanks’ role in the film.
“He’s shooting his new movie and my sister and I were just talking about how much we love the book he’s shooting the movie for, so it was kind of like a circle,” she said. “It was frankly crazy because we were just talking about him.”
Tom Hanks has actually photographed a wedding reception before.
Last year he stopped by for photos after a couple tied the knot on the Santa Monica Pier in California. The bride said, “He treated us like family.”
