Despite being booked and busy with her upcoming Becoming stadium tour, Michelle Obama still found time to bless one Chicago couple on their wedding day by officiating their wedding vows.
As if our forever first lady needed another job to add to her already stacked resume, video footage obtained by TMZ shows Mrs. Obama happily leading the couple in the recitation of their vows. One excited attendee was so taken aback, she rushed to her Instagram to post the moment. Even though the video has since been deleted, it was still obtained by TMZ.
“Holy Moly," user Tina Newman wrote on her Instagram story. “That moment when Michelle Obama officiated at your [cousin’s] wedding!”
“I promise to stand next to and support you through all of life’s trials and trails," Obama can be heard saying in the video before having the bride repeat after her.
The lucky couple is Joel Sircus and Stephanie Rivkin, who reportedly has strong ties to the Obama family. Robert S. Rivkin, Stephanie's father, is the deputy mayor of Chicago while her mother was appointed Director of the President’s Commission on White House Fellowships during Barack Obama’s presidency.
Perhaps this was just a favor for a family friend, but if Mrs. Obama were to ever make this a thing, we’d getting married 24/8.
