Erika Rodriguez was a bridesmaid at her sister's wedding when a wedding crasher showed up without an invitation.

Erika wasn't going to let her sister's wedding get ruined, especially not by a snake!

Watch her in action.

How did she learn how to deal with snakes?

She says,

I just grew up watching Steve Irwin, my role model.

And while she did pick up the snake correctly to avoid getting bitten, the snake in question was a just a gopher snake and not poisonous, so no one was in any danger.

Except the snake.

Imagine what would have happened to the poor thing if it had ruined the bride's big day.
