But no one was injured in the crash and the bride and groom could see the funny side.
Photographs show a white sedan crashed into the side of a bank, and the happy couple and entourage speaking to police on the side of the road while laughing.
It is understood the couple were married at St Peter's Anglican Church in Queenstown.
They were on their way to get their photographs taken at the picturesque Moke Lake when the crash occurred.
Police told the Herald: "There were no reported injuries. Police are making enquiries into the circumstances of the crash."
