A Manatee County man found a South Carolina bride after a photo canvas mix-up.

Matt Gregg of Ellenton ordered a picture he wanted printed on a canvas of his motorcycle, but when he opened the package on Wednesday, there was a picture of a bride.

After calling the the company, he was told they could only tell him she's from South Carolina.

Gregg said the company promised they would reprint the canvases and make sure they both received the right one.

Regardless, Gregg wanted to reach out to the South Carolina bride to mail the picture he received of her.

He posted a plea on Facebook, hoping someone will help him get in contact with her. Since then his post has been shared more than 88,000 times.

His search paid off. Early Friday morning Gregg posted he found the bride thanks to the Facebook community. Her name is Paris Boyd and the company, JazzyJae Creations Photography, she hired was the one who originally ordered the canvas. 

Gregg wrote he will be shipping the photo he received to the photography company and wishes Boyd and her groom "the best in marriage."
