That’s what people in the MadeMeSmile SubReddit found out after one user shared a video that showed one man taking up two wedding party roles.
"This guy played the role of a Flower man for his cousin’s wedding," the Reddit user captioned their 58-second clip.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The unidentified flower man can be seen walking out of a building and down a lightly decorated aisle. While he sashays to Frankie Beverly and Maze’s 1981 hit "Before I Let Go," the "flower man" reaches into his vest pockets and rhythmically spreads the petals.
He also threw in a few twirls before he took his place as the third groomsman at the end of the aisle.
