A bride has given up on her dream wedding, and when you hear why you will not be able to stop the tears
|
Lisa Wilson and Robert Pentoja were supposed to get married, but for Lisa, the wedding would not be the same without the most important guest - her father.
David Wilson, Lisa's father, suffered from terminal cancer and his condition was very bad. So in order for him not to miss his daughter's wedding she decided to hold the wedding with him, in the hospital room.
She decided that the wedding won't be in the large hall they had planned on, and she no longer wanted to have a large guest list.
Instead, she wanted her wedding to be meaningful for her and Robert's families - and most importantly, for her dad.
There in the room, along with other family members the couple exchanged vows and held the ceremony.
Lisa couldn't imagine her wedding without him, so she and Robert exchanged vows in her father's room. And after that, Lisa and her dad shared the first bride-father dance together.
“I asked him, I said, 'Daddy, I want to do my father-daughter dance with you'. He said, 'I can’t dance,' and I said, 'You don't have to. I want to dance with your hands,'” Lisa told CBS.
What happened next did not leave one eye dry.
