We all love a good wedding story that pulls at those ever-flexed heart strings and this one will not fail to disappoint if, like the one million plus people who have already liked these photos on Facebook, you cherish the uncompromised bond between a bride and her father.
The following images were taken by Ohio-based wedding photographer Delia D Blackburn at Brittany Peck’s wedding.
The photo that has captured the hearts of thousands shows Brittany’s father, Todd Bachman, stopping her wedding ceremony to go back and get Brittany’s stepdad – because, blood relative or not, he believed that they had both played a significant part in Brittany’s life and should both have the honour of walking her down the isle.

Delia posted the image to Facebook saying, ‘Grab tissues... because you will need it as you look through these pictures. Todd Bachman, father of the bride, brought his daughter to the beginning of the aisle... he stopped the procession while people were confused at his actions and he walked up to his daughter’s stepfather.
‘Todd reached out his hand and grabbed Brittany’s stepfather and pulled him down the aisle to walk their daughter down the aisle together. NOT A DRY EYE at the ceremony… including me!
She concluded with this rather lovely sentiment, ‘Families are what we make them... make it about your kids and not your ego. Congratulations Todd Bachman on showing your kids what true love really is... love for your children. Please share so that we can spread kindness throughout!’

And that’s exactly what happened as this touching story has quickly gone viral. While one Facebook user shared the story, she left the comment, ‘She’s one lucky girl to have these two men in her life.’
We couldn’t agree more.
