"Everybody was on the phone call and all of a sudden this guy starts slowly walking over. He stopped and he's saying 'Hello' to us and we're saying 'OK, you alright?'"
She added: "I think he was waiting for us to recognise him. I noticed he had a really nice camera and I was thinking 'Oh, he must do photography'. But I thought 'I can't know this guy. I'm in New York, I don't know anyone in New York.'

"And she turns around just as he's walking away and said 'Oh my God" Mark Ruffalo!' And then he turned around and was like 'Hey!' He came back over then. He was absolutely lovely. He was so nice."
Klaire concluded: "It was amazing that we got married in Central Park. It was so magical and the whole day was beautiful and then Mark Ruffalo turning up and being in pictures with us, it did make it extra special."
