We've seen GoPros put in many interesting places to shoot unique point-of-view footage, but this could be one of the best uses of these tough, portable cameras yet. Photographer Ben Horne (right) and his bride stashed a GoPro Hero2 inside her wedding bouquet, and captured fantastic, wide-angle HD footage of their big day from a personal perspective.

"The wide-angle, first-person viewpoint of her walking down the aisle is something we can look back on many years from now. We let it run for much of the day, and captured a lot of great moments," Horne wrote.

He added that no one noticed the small, black camera lens in the bouquet, which made the flowers-eye-view footage all the more candid and natural.

See the sweet video results below. And if you're interested in creating the same effect at a wedding, check out Horne's clip on how he created the bouquet-cam below that.
