Emotions run high at most weddings.
Our photographer captured a picture of my sister Rachel delicately wiping a tear from her cheek as she watched.
Sometimes, a wedding is more than just a joining of two people who love each other.

Sometimes a wedding moment holds so much emotion that you might’t watch it without crying.
That’s how I felt when I saw these.
“You have made us a truly great family.”

Then she saved the letter for over 20 years, giving it to Zugg on her wedding day.
Blackledge gave her daughter the letter as she prepared for her wedding.
Then she gently took the letter in her hand and read it.
He cried for a week straight until my wedding, to my mom.
Most weddings join two families the bride’s and the groom’s.
But Bachman’s actions healed the divide in the bride’s own family, as well.
“I go back tomorrow,” Daniel told his sister.
“You look beautiful.”
“I was kind of confused,” Sarah said in the video.
“Because people were acting really funny.
No, they were just waiting for her wedding day to get that much better.
Stocking toldTodaythat she still can’t watch the video without crying.
“I don’t watch it when people show it and his mom likes to show it a lot.
I leave the room.
As soon as I hear Nick’s voice, the waterworks begin.”
The bride and groom said their vows in Go’s hospital room.
Everyone cried as May held his hand in both of hers, and family members fanned his face.
He couldn’t stop crying the entire time she approached him, her face covered with a sheer veil.
His best man embraced him and said, “Stand up, stand up, stand up.
This is your moment, man.
You look at her.”
They also decided to wait to have sex until they were married.
Annabel said, “I’ve never seen you cry like that before.”
Just being in a relationship where the person loves you for who you are.
Not because of what you’ve done for them, not because you deserve their love.”
That kind of love is truly something to get weepy about.
His words brought her to tears
Tonight I was photographing Adrian & Roslyn at sunset.
Can you tell her why?"
When Adrian whispered the answer in Roslyn’s ear, she wept tears of joy.
Then, even though Day couldn’t hear Adrian’s answer, he began crying, as well.
Day told theHuffington Post, “It wasn’t for me to hear.
I had him whisper it in her ear because it’s for her ears only.
As of today, the photo has over 62k shares and 273k reactions on Facebook.
Brown climbed into her grandmother’s bed with her, embracing the woman who had helped raise her.
Brown told ABCthat not having her grandmother at her wedding was very difficult for her.
“It was the equivalent of not having a parent there.
This woman helped raise me and become who I am.
She’s been there for everything.”
To finally hug her lifted my heavy heart.”
She and about eight other family members had joined the bride and groom in Harris’s hospital room.
He wheeled her onto the dance floor, one of his hands in both of hers.
Then Rebekah burst into tears as well.
Luke handed her a tissue and continued wheeling her around the dance floor.
That’s when Luke watched the entire dance for the first time.
I tell it to everyone: ‘It’s a void that can never be filled.’
Growing up and getting older enhances the power of those feelings."
She went from having her own gymnastics gym, to not being able to walk.
She and John Springhower reconnected soon after.
The two had attended the same high school but had never dated before.
Everything just seems to feel so good."
A celebration of love
Most people plan their weddings for months in advance.
