CÃntia and José were standing at the altar when the doors at the back of the church suddenly opened. As José beamed, a group of his bride’s students began making their way down the aisle.
The look on CÃntia’s face was absolutely priceless as she realized what was going on. She instantly began to weep as each adorable child appeared to surprise her, all dressed in their best wedding attire.
Two of the younger kids even brought some extra style with a tiny electric car!

Once the little ones reached the altar, CÃntia and José stopped to say hello. You can see the love CÃntia has for her students as she gently touches their faces and shares a special moment with each of them.
Later, the bride said the big surprise was one of the best parts of her wedding day!
“I love my profession so much and having the opportunity to have some of the children with us on this day was inexplicable,” she explained. “The emotion overcame me in a way that I thought my heart would not be able to handle!”
