From a bride who ditched her wheelchair to walk down the aisle to a tear-jerking first look that had us reaching for the tissues, we can’t get over how beautiful each of these heart-warming weddings was.
As the year comes to an end, we thought we’d take a look back on all of the most inspiring and heart-warming weddings that we shared on our Instagram in 2021. Warning: Get the tissues ready because these special wedding moments are guaranteed to hit you right in the feels.
Jenni & Cameron
At this dreamy California wedding, the bride’s brother stole everyone’s hearts with his killer performance to Billie Jean by Michael Jackson. Jenni’s brother has autism and isn’t comfortable public speaking, but he wanted to be included in the toasts and spent hours learning choreography and lyrics before the big day — how amazing!

Chelsie & Jay
After being paralysed from the waist down following a car accident in 2010, Chelsie Hill (CEO and founder of the Rollettes wheelchair dance team in Los Angeles) had always dreamed of walking down the aisle on her wedding day. Chelsie’s dream became a reality as she swapped her wheelchair for leg braces and a walker when marrying Jay Bloomfield in beautiful Huntington Beach, California.
