Nothing wrong with that until they awkwardly insisted he sing along.

You could tell in the cringe-worthy video below the man just wanted the entire ordeal to end quickly but that wasn't going to happen.

He politely resisted at firstbut as thecamera remained on him, it was evidenthis gentle protesting wasfutile.

Eventually, Bon Jovitook the microphone and joined the wedding band, left alone at moments to keep it going.

His smile only looked slightly forced.
