— -- There was no llama drama for this bride and groom at their wedding after party —- only a whole llama fun!

"We crashed the llama party, the llamas did not crash our party," Alexis Kluger told ABC News of the surprise animal encounter back at the hotel after their big day. "They were totally into it. They were like, 'Come hang out with us.' We all decided to go play with the llamas because they had music going all night and they were partying all night with their llamas."

As fate would have it, there was a llama convention happening at the same hotel where the newlyweds were staying the weekend of their wedding in Flat Rock, North Carolina. The couple didn’t know about the events coinciding with the most magical day of their lives until they called the hotel to try to block off more rooms for their guests, to no avail.

"We called and asked, 'Can we block off more rooms?' and they said there was a llama convention and they’ve already blocked off the rest of the rooms," Alexis’ husband, Drew Kluger, said.

Still, the couple had no clue just how up close and personal the llamas would become —- they were the wedding after party’s main attraction.

"We had a big wedding and afterward we all went back to the hotel in Flat Rock and Drew’s uncle Jeff got us a party room," Alexis explained. "He got a bunch of liquor and food and music. Someone came in and said, 'There’s llamas outside,' so we went out to the lobby and there were a ton people with like eight llamas in the lobby. We were both a little tipsy at this point and just didn’t know what to think."

Naturally, the whole wedding party decided to party with the llamas and their owners.

"It was really surreal," said Alexis. "We had no idea what was going on. They had a DJ and were playing all these pop songs. These families have llamas and they all get together for a big reunion every year."

The party-turned-petting-zoo made for Reddit gold when Drew’s cousin posted the hilarious photos to the social sharing site.

"The llama people were just super friendly," said Drew. "If it wasn’t for them inviting us to come hang out with them, those pictures and the most memorable night ever would never have happened."

The happy couple said they’d like to return to the hotel next year to reunite with their new friends from The Southern States Llama Association at their annual reunion.
