#WeStillComing Wedding Photo Turns Out to Be a Disappointing Hoax

Recently, a wedding photo went viral featuring a few surprise wedding guests. It was thought that a bride-to-be accidentally sent a wedding invitation via text to a couple of strangers - who decided to show up! The photo, however, turned out to be a disappointing hoax.

The bride was supposedly letting her friends know the address for her wedding photo-shoot and barbecue, but one of the messages was sent to a man she had never met. At first, the stranger responded in typical fashion with, "Who is this?" However, what happened next was a little more unusual. The man told her, "You have the wrong number but me and my boys will be there."

When the bride tried to rescind her invitation, the stranger ignored it, responding that "We still coming." The phrase spawned a trending hashtag on Twitter.

The real story: The bride, Amy, and her now-husband, Ian, got married at the Colony Club in Detroit, Michigan. After tying the knot, they took a trolley around town to take pictures at several locations, including the abandoned Michigan Central Station, where they encountered a rap group known as "7262". The couple's photographer, Adam Farkes, told The Washington Post that "They looked over at us, and we waved back at them and then we said, 'we are going to come over and dance in your music video.'" The group said 'yes' resulting in an awesome impromptu addition to their rap video. One of the attendees posted the photo on social media and the rest is history.
