Tom Hanks crashes yet another wedding as he surprises stunned bride during photoshoot

Tom Hanks surprised a bride during her wedding photoshoot - leaving her completely stunned.

The Castaway actor, 65, creeped up on the beautiful bride as she was getting snaps taken with her bridal party.

The Hollywood star tapped the bride, Grace Gwaltney, on her shoulder as she posed for her wedding photos at the Fairmont Hotel in downtown Pittsburgh on Saturday.

Lifting the lid on the magical moment, the stunned bride admitted that she thought she was 'seeing things' when she turned around to see Tom standing behind her.

"He was like, 'Hey! I'm Tom Hanks. I would love to get a photo with you' and I immediately froze and was just looking around," she told People.

"I didn't know what to do," she added.

The amazed bride went on to joke that she felt as though Woody from Toy Story had joined her wedding party as she gushed over the actor's recognisable voice.

"You see him and then he starts speaking and he was like, 'You look so beautiful. I'm so happy for you.' He was talking in my ear. I was thinking of Toy Story," she told.

Wedding photographer Rachel Rowland, who watched the special moment unfold in front of her eyes, told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that the bridal group erupted into screeches when they laid eyes on the Oscar-winning actor.

"They started screaming and were pretty much in shock," the photographer revealed.

Rachel went on to reveal that Tom didn't outstay his welcome, and was gone as quickly as he appeared.

The wedding photographer described the actor as 'sweet' and 'fun' as she recalled the incredible moment.

"We all lost it. The bridesmaids shuffled out of the limo, and he posed with photos and congratulated everyone, and then as fast as he popped in, he was gone. It was just so sweet and fun," she added.

Tom was in town to film the upcoming movie, A Man Called Otto, at the time.

It's not the first time the actor has crashed a fans wedding as he's now got at least three ceremonies under his belt.
