There were plenty of Instagram-worthy moments from Sunday night's Oscars: Kate Upton photobombed Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann, J. Lo and Meryl Streep took a selfie. But we bet you probably couldn't guess the one photo that garnered the most Likes of them all, with a whopping 719,000 people who double-tapped (and counting):

MY MOM IS MY DATE! So excited for the OSCARS!

It's Ansel Elgort and his lovely date, his mom! According to Instagram, it was the social media platform's most liked photo of the night -- and though we couldn't predict it, we can obviously see why: it's adorable.

Elgort, who presented at the Oscars, wasn't the only one who brought along his mother as his date. Emma Stone and Dakota Johnson opted to hit the red carpet with their mamas, too.
