Aleksandra had cheekily suggested to Ivan that he would be unbuttoning her dress later that night, which prompted a lascivious smile from the groom.
He then closed his eyes and edged in for a very slow smooch on the unsuspecting bride’s cheek.
‘I feel very uncomfortable right now,’ one viewer tweeted, while another wrote: ‘That kiss was so creepy!’

A similar comment read: ‘This show has put me through a lot over the years, but this has to be the worst thing it’s ever done to me.’

One Twitter user even posted a photo of Anthony Hopkins in his famous role as cannibal Hannibal Lecter to compare the groom to.
But despite Ivan’s strange moment and his resemblance to Marilyn Manson, the newlyweds did appear to share a genuine connection on their wedding day.
Other images from their official photo shoot showed them kissing romantically and gazing deeply into each other’s eyes.
