Hide AdFootage shows the emotional moment a 99-year-old man escorted his daughter down the aisle at a wedding blessing in his care home. The daughter and her partner held their wedding ceremony in Cotswolds, but the bride’s dad was unable to be there in person due to health complications. His care home The Spinney in London offered to host a wedding blessing, so he could walk his daughter down the aisle. The couple’s family members, some of the father’s fellow residents and workers at the care home all attended the blessing.
We watch the moment a room full of wedding guests erupt with laughter when a groom mixes up his words at the altar. The nervous groom said to his bride he would "laugh at you when you’re sad", after confusing the phrase “comfort you when you’re sad”. The couple, from Essex, said the event was a “moment to remember”, with the groom adding that their family and friends definitely saw the funny side.
