At the end of the wedding ceremony, the priest usually asks the witnesses: ‘If any of you know of the reasons why these two should not be married, name them now, or never say them.’

Usually everyone is silent, unless we are talking about cinema. Then it happens that the secret lover of the bride or the secret lover of the groom suddenly confesses his love.

But in this video, which was made during a wedding in Portugal, the wedding was interrupted by the groom himself.

The lovely couple, Jessica and Jefferson, were standing at the altar, surrounded by family and loved ones, when Jefferson began the speech prepared for the occasion.

He explained that he loves his future wife very much, but despite this, there is another girl who also has a place in his heart, and she is right in this room.

With tears in his eyes, Jefferson turned to the girl he loves.

Those present were shocked. Until they realized that Jefferson had turned to eight-year-old Giovanna.

Jessica had a daughter from another man, so she was simply amazed when Jefferson suddenly knelt down in front of her.

Anyone who has grown up in a family with children from different marriages, multiple fathers and mothers knows that it is difficult to build a close

relationship with someone who is not related by blood. But Jefferson wanted Giovanna to have no doubt that he wanted to be a good father to her.

Jefferson promised in front of everyone to love not only Jessica, but also Giovanna.

The original video is in Portuguese, but below is a translation of the promise Jefferson made to Giovanna:

‘If I could ask God for anything I want, I would wish that you were my daughter. I would be proud of all the fathers in the world,

having such a beautiful, intelligent and educated daughter like you … I will give you my love, always take care of you, always protect you and never let anything bad happen to you.”

Jefferson’s speech made everyone present cry and laid a solid foundation for a new family. Watch the video below to see that sweet moment with Jefferson’s speech and Giovanna’s reaction 🙂
