This sweet pose is reminiscent of a child, tuckered out from play, being carried to bed. Whether tender, romantic, or protective, carrying someone this way conveys deep, unshakeable affection.

One of the easiest ways to lift someone off the ground—or catch them as they fall from a tree or ladder—is the famed bridal carry, aka the princess carry, where one arm is placed under the person’s legs with the other supporting their back. While often used to indicate or foreshadow a romantic relationship, this gesture can also be used to illustrate close platonic bonds, major strength differences, or moments of vulnerability. Whatever the nature of the relationship, it can be undoubtedly sweet to observe the pair in such an intimate moment, don’t you think?

Would you rather be carried princess style or be the one doing the carrying?

Be it by a friend, a family member, or a significant other, being swept up in the arms of a loved one is one of the best feelings in the world, don’t you think? Although known as the bridal carry, this means of showing affection is universal and also serves as both a great workout for the carrier and a trust exercise for the one being carried.
