A video of a groom surprising his penguin-loving wife by hiring a penguin as the ring bearer for their wedding has gone viral.
Joey Keilty, an electrician from Wirral and Liverpool who is known as ‘JK Electrical’ on TikTok, surprised viewers, his wife, and their wedding guests with an unforgettable moment.
Although Joey typically focuses on his job in his account, the electrician changed things up by sharing a video from his wedding, featuring an unexpected guest.

As the men walked, a tiny penguin waddled beside them, causing the crowd to let out a collective “Aww.”A pink ribbon adorned the penguin’s neck, serving as the wedding bands for both Joey and his wife. The unexpected ring bearer added a touch of surprise to the ceremony.
In his caption for the video, Joey shared that we had an unexpected ring bearer at our wedding ceremony – a penguin, much to the delight of my wife who loves them. The video quickly gained over 60,000 views as viewers expressed their excitement in the comments.
“One individual asserted, “I would INSTANTLY PASS OUT,”in reference to the ring bearer and their cuteness. Multiple others expressed their anticipation for their significant others to plan something similar; “I am sending this to my partner RIGHT AWAY so we can renew our vows and have a penguin present!”
“One user expressed their desire for a penguin, stating that they would have been extremely happy if they were able to have one. Another user, who is getting married next year, also saw the value in having a penguin as part of their future plans.”
While some viewers were gushing over the penguin’s adorable “wee pitter-patter,”others were curious about how Joey’s wife reacted to the ring bearer. Although there is no video available showing her response, Joey provided some information to Newsweek.
“He explained that he had arranged the surprise because penguins were his wife’s favorite animals. She was pleasantly surprised and his guests also greatly enjoyed the gesture.”
