When Eric and Maegan Walber fell into the water during their wedding photoshoot on a dock at the Bay Pinte Inn, Eric Walber swam for shore, rather than rescuing his dunked bride.

The entire bridal party got a soaking when a dock at the Bay Pointe Inn on Gun Lake in Shelbyville, Michigan, collapsed.

However, the new Mrs. Walber gracefully took it in her stride and laughed.

Her only concern was a falling down gown and finding her footing while wearing the heavy dress.

“I came up laughing,” she told 24 Hour News 8.

“I was like, <<Oh, man, that really just happened. I can’t believe that actually just happened>>. Your wedding party falls into a lake at your reception. You can’t plan that,” she said with a laugh.

Thankfully, her modesty was protected by a bridesmaid, who also tried to steady her friend.

The scene was captured by Anne Oppenhuizen of Inspiration Video.

The wedding party had just finished eating dinner when the photographer told them that if they wanted photos on the lake, now was the time to go.

“We were out there for probably 30 seconds, standing on the dock, and it started to lean and tilt,” said Eric Walber.

“We went right under,” he added.

Afterwards, the soaking wet bridal party got a standing ovation from other diners at the restaurant.

And Maegan Walber’s evening wasn’t completely ruined as she had the dress that she’d worn to the rehearsal dinner the night before to change into.

“It makes for a good story,” she said.

“We’ll be telling our grandkids.”
