A wedding ended in tragedy after a groom died suddenly during his celebration last week, according to video and news reports.

Ashraf Abu Hakam was dancing with his bride at their wedding in Aswan, Egypt, on Thursday, Sept. 25, when he collapsed, the Daily Mail reported, citing published video of the incident.

The video shows Hakam dancing with his wife while waving a Saidi stick, a prop used for the traditional Egyptian Saidi dance.

He then apparently collapsed on the dance floor in front of horrified guests.

Attempts were made to revive Hakam but they were unsuccessful, according to Gulf News, a United Arab Emirates news outlet.

Hakam suffered a cardiac arrest and died within moments of collapsing, the outlet reported.

He was remembered on social media by a friend as being “full of life” and “excited for his future,” according to Gulf News.

Hakam’s death took place days after a similar tragedy surrounding influencer Adna Rovčanin-Omerbegović, who died shortly after falling ill on her wedding day on Sept. 15.

The 26-year-old wed her husband in Ilidža, a town in Bosnia, on Sept. 13 but she became sick shortly after the wedding festivities and was rushed to a local hospital, where she died, local newspaper Dnevni Avaz reported.
