The furry wedding crasher was seen tucking into the dessert station at the crisis-hit nuptials after the ceremony had been hit with a downpour in the beautiful Colorado wilderness.
Brandon Reimers and Cailyn MacRossie-Martinez were married in Boulder, Colorado on July 31 and had to endure sodden weather before the famished furball made an appearance at their reception.
Cailyn recalled being told by her new husband about the animal's abrupt entrance and unceremonious destruction of their desserts and turning to see the brown beast making the most of the opportunity.
Cailyn told Insider: "The bear was on top of the dessert table, just plowing through the dessert bar.
"My brother and his best friend were filming it. Security eventually came through and shooed it off."
The couple told Insider that despite the adversity of their experiences, they would not change a thing about their wedding day.
They noted that only a few attendees of the ceremony managed to join the bear's sweet feast before his demolition job.
The couple remarked: "I would say there was a lot of shock and awe throughout the night, but I think that's what enhanced it."
