A bride channeled her inner Eminem at her wedding.
California bride Rizza-Belen Diaz surprised her groom, Josh Dodson, and their wedding guests when she opted to switch out generic wedding vows to describe her relationship in favor of the lyrics to the rapper’s hit song, “Lose Yourself,” at the altar.
The video of the vows captured by wedding videographers Jay and Mack films showed the moment the bride referenced the infamous lyrics from the Oscar-winning song featured in the 2002 film 8 Mile. She could be seen reciting the lyrics from a paper, “If you had one shot or one opportunity / To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment / Would you capture it or just let it slip?”
The groom could then be seen breaking out into laughter — along with the rest of the guests — as he caught on to the song. However, the bride didn’t stop there; she added her own twist on the lyrics.
“It looks like you captured it. So here I am, palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, no vomit on my dress but I do love your mom’s spaghetti,” she continued, as a quick clip showed his mom laughing in the audience. “I’m nervous, you’re nervous. But on the surface we look calm and ready.”
“All jokes aside, I’m happy you took your shot and didn’t let a chance blow. I’m so lucky because a Josh Dodson comes once in a lifetime, yo,” she jokingly concluded.
At the top of the video were the words, “I didn’t realize Eminem lyrics made for great wedding vows.”
Many people agreed, as the video garnered nearly 700,000 likes on Instagram and hundreds of comments from people who called the vows “creative,” “genius” and even “legendary.”
“She’s a keeper! That’s an Oscar award winning vow!,” one person wrote.
“These are the dopest vows ever. They probably be laughing non stop. Love this!,” one commenter said, while another chimed in, “That was freakin’ the most creative vow! Love it!”
This isn’t the first time a bride or groom have put their own spin on infamous lyrics. In May, a groom serenaded his bride to his own version of Barbie‘s “I’m Just Ken,” which also went viral online.
Some of the fun lyrical changes the groom made included belting out, “Cause I’m just groom / And I’m so in love with you,” and changing up the chorus to “he said ‘I do’ ” and “put that married hand in mine/ so hey, world that’s my wife, yeah I’m just groom.”
