A bride chose to keep the tradition of waiting until her wedding ceremony before letting the groom lay eyes on her in her wedding dress for the first time. She did, however, give her younger brother Nick who has Down syndrome the honors of his “first look” and made it into an adorable, emotionally charged photoshoot. The touching pictures went viral and warmed hearts all over the internet.

Ashley Rice, now Ashley Sedar, from Tonawanda, New York, was planning her wedding to Brian Sedar when she decided to arrange the “first-look” photo session on her wedding day. She told Good Morning America that she had always been “intrigued” by the concept.
