A BRAZEN thief has left a bride sobbing after he snatched $100,000 in wedding gifts during the reception.

An unidentified wedding crasher was caught on camera stealing a large box filled with cash, checks and gift cards at the lavish Californian wedding.

Nadeen and George Farahat were celebrating their wedding with family and friends when the thief struck, unnoticed by security guards.

Seen in a video filmed by one of the 300 guests, the man - dressed in all black - was caught in the act.

ABC7 reported the man spent at least 90 minutes at the Los Angeles reception before the theft took place.

Bride Nadeen said she was left devastated after the theft was discovered.

"As soon as we found out what happened, you know, the music shut down, everything immediately stopped," she said.
