You all need to agree that father is a very important part of a woman’s wedding day. Whether it’s the moment he walks her down the aisle, or the father-daughter dance, father figure is very special.

Nicole Cortez’ father gave her a big wedding surprise by signing to the song ‘I Loved Her First’ by the band Heartland to show her how much she means to him. Although Nicole is not deaf, she is a sign language interpreter and was surprised and delighted that it took her father the entire year to learn to sign for this amazing tribute.
