It turns out that Bill had a very good reason for skipping the ceremony – he was attending his son’s wedding in Philadelphia.

Murray also reportedly hung out in Philadelphia for the wedding weekend, and the actor infamous for showing up in random public places didn’t disappoint, with Philadelphians tweeting their Bill Murray spottings.

Actress and close friend Kelly Lynch tweeted a picture of Murray at the wedding with the caption, “Another reason I 3 #BillMurray – he wins an #Emmy but is at his son’s wedding #priorities“.

And one more from the band – “Tonight I got to sing for the ONE AND ONLY…” Felicia Graham, who performed at the ceremony, shared a photo with the actor on Instagram, saying he joined the band onstage.

Luke is Bill’s second son from his first marriage to Margaret Kelly, whom he Wednesday in 1981.
