9/11 was one of the most tragic events in American history, and it is still impacting the world today in many ways, big and small.

This beautiful bride-to-be was just a child when she lost her father, who was a firefighter, on 9/11, but he was definitely there in spirit on her big day.

She made this video that shows her in a beautiful wedding dress, walking out of her hotel. The caption says, “My dad couldn’t show up to my wedding because he was taken from us on September 11th. So look who did…”

As she walks outside, she sees a firetruck with a bunch of firefighters.

The caption reads, “New and retired firefighters from my dad’s firehouse, Rescue One.”

She is clearly touched by the fact that they are here for her. It is a heartwarming moment.

The caption then switches to, “I finally understand why they say, ‘It’s a brotherhood.’ I know my dad was smiling down, knowing I was taken care of.”

What a wonderful way to show up for this young lady who lost so much.

The video ends with the caption, “Thank you for never forgetting, FDNY.”

What a wonderful way to show support for her.

It is so sad to think about how much so many lost on that day, and their loss continues to be felt today.

Watch the video below for yourself.

Just make sure you have tissues nearby.
