Why an American wood duck for the prompt “bride”? Well, in German the name is “bride duck” (Brautente).
But also – I was waiting for a chance to show off this beautiful bird.

It is – but I don’t know why somebody would call it “bride duck”, it looks like a warrior to me, something east asian, like a samurai with a helmet.
