Always the bridesmaid, never the flower girl.

We all get a little restless at weddings, but we usually just wait it out.

This wasn't the case for Chloe, the flower girl at a May wedding in Melbourne, Australia.

Chloe, the 3-year-old niece of Katie and Tom Quirk, made a run for it as the couple said their vows.

After noticing her daughter sprinting behind the couple, Chloe's mother hilariously chased after her, as seen in the clip provided by Burgess Videos below.

As Katie Quirk told The Daily Mail, "I was facing the direction Chloe was running from, but because I was looking at Tom all I saw was this flash of white all of a sudden in my peripheral vision."

That wasn't all she saw moments later, her now sister-in-law gave chase in order to catch her daughter.

While Chloe's dash interrupted the wedding, the ridiculousness of the situation makes it an extremely memorable moment.

Mrs. Quirk told The Huffington Post that she "had to repeat that part of my vow three times because I was still giggling and the guests were still laughing. So you can say I’m extra committed to this marriage.”

We wish a happy marriage to the Quirks and a future as an Olympic runner to Chloe.
