Understandably the couple were thrilled by their wedding surprise, and the bride later told The New York Post; "We were in the midst of shooting and he just sort of walked up to us and introduced himself saying, 'Hi, I’m Tom Hanks. ' It was a great New York minute."

It is not the first time Tom has crashed a couple's wedding; the Daily Dot reports that the actor surprised another bride while he was filming Forrest Gump in South Carolina in 1992.

Tom reportedly beeped his car horn at the bride as she prepared to enter the church on her wedding day and ran over to tell her: "Hey, I'm Tom Hanks, and I just wanted to say good luck!"
