What a time to be alive, in love…and getting married in the day of Instagram!

One newly married groom celebrated tying the knot with the woman who stole his heart with an epic dab right at the altar, and social media is loving it.

After swapping “I dos”, but before sealing the deal and kissing his bride, the groom channeled his inner Cam Newton and showed of his dance moves much to his new wife’s enjoyment.
