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!

Katie & Emmanuel

This emotion-filled first look (captured by the incredibly talented Moon & Back Co) had us feeling all the feels. Emmanuel and Katie married at The Pier in Geelong on a beautiful day filled with lots of laughs and happy tears.

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.

Shane & Hannah

After documenting their interabled relationship on YouTube for the past four years, Shane Burcaw and Hannah Aylward married in an intimate backyard ceremony with friends and family joining them via Zoom. This inspirational couple has been celebrated for their openness and authenticity while navigating the challenges and rewards of their relationship online.

Aveena & Alissa

To say we are obsessed with this gorgeous wedding would be a massive understatement! Alissa and Aveena’s heart-warming wedding photos never fail to brighten our day, and every detail was planned to perfection (including their clever way of keeping the kids entertained during the wedding reception).
