A Tennessee couple found a way to involve their one-month-old baby into their wedding ceremony by attaching the infant to the end of the bride’s wedding train.

After the bride, Shona Carter-Brooks, posted photos of her gown to Facebook, she began receiving backlash for her decision, according to KSDKTV. 

While some in attendance supported the baby train, many social media users suggested calling child protective services.

In a post, responding to negative comments, Carter-Brooks wrote:

The newlywed continues to defend her actions, saying her daughter Aubrey was in no danger and that she was “well secured” to the train.

The dress is believed to have been purchased at a local David’s Bridal.
