A video clip of a touching moment has gone viral, featuring a bride dancing with a life-size cardboard cutout of her late mother on her wedding day. The bride, 27-year-old Nathalie Mulkahi from Hertfordshire, England, wanted to find a way to honor her mother on her special day, so the family brought in the life-sized cardboard cutout of her mother.
The video shows the bride stepping onto the dance floor with her father, Colin Thomas, 69, for the father-daughter dance. The heartfelt video quickly gained traction on TikTok, amassing 104,200 views within a few days. Mulkahi told the Daily Mail, "The whole family was there when my mom passed away; it was the saddest day of our lives."
After her mother's death, one of Mulkahi's sisters decided to purchase the life-size cutouts to include their mother in future family events. Mulkahi added, "My mom would usually stand in the corner watching everyone at my sister's house; we all decided she should be at the wedding." During the wedding, the couple had their first dance together before the bride's father, Colin, stepped in to dance with his daughter, including their late mother’s cutout in the special moment.
