A fun wedding tradition quickly turned into an unexpected wrestling match when a bouquet toss sparked a showdown among guests at a wedding.
The incident occurred at a reception in Ljubuški, Bosnia and Herzegovina on September 9, which saw three women fiercely battling over the good luck charm.
Hilarious footage, filmed by a guest, shows the tradition beginning innocently enough, with a crowd of women counting down as the bride teases the launch of her bouquet.
After finally throwing the flowers behind her, three women attempt to grab the bouquet at the same time – ensuing chaos.
One woman tumbled to the floor, pulling the other two down with her, and the scramble was on.
A fun wedding tradition quickly turned into an unexpected wrestling match when a bouquet toss sparked a full-blown brawl among guests at a wedding
A man on a microphone tried to defuse the situation, suggesting they simply repeat the toss, but the would-be brides were too determined.
The trio, dressed in silver, blue, and black gowns, were seen rolling on the floor, dragging each other across the room in a desperate bid to claim the bouquet.
Baffled guests looked on, some nervously laughing, others in shock, as the women remained locked in a tug-of-war, completely ignoring those attempting to break up the melee.
In the end, it appeared the woman in black emerged victorious, using her legs to pin the other two down to secure the prize.
The bizarre brawl, which has now gone viral, left onlookers amused and confused, as reported by What’s The Jam.
One local commented, ‘If I were a guy at that wedding, I would have quietly disappeared,’ while another added: ‘What pathetic women. But I’m curious about how it ended, who won in the end and what they looked like after all that.’
A third said: ‘Once they’re on the floor, it becomes a matter of principle to not let go.’
Others joked the women could easily win wrestling medals at the Olympics, given their determination.

It comes after a guest at an upcoming wedding was left fuming over reception arrangements made by the bride and groom.
The attendee took to Reddit’s wedding shaming subreddit to gripe about the situation, dubbing it the ‘most bizarre “reception” idea ever.’
She went on to explain: ‘My husband has a friend who is getting married next year.
‘He and his fiancée have booked a fancy mansion in an expensive area for the ceremony and dinner.
‘However, the venue doesn’t allow music after 9 PM and, to save money, they actually aren’t having any music at all.’
