Couple Chooses ‘Flower Grandparents’ Instead of Flower Girls, Creating a Heartwarming Moment

When Faye Plunkett and her husband planned their wedding, they decided to do a few things differently. One of their choices touched the hearts of their wedding guests—and millions more—after Faye shared a video of the moment.

Instead of traditional flower girls, the couple chose flower grandparents. The groom’s grandparents, both in their 80s, held baskets of flower petals and gently tossed them as they walked down the aisle. In the viral clip, Faye’s husband gets emotional watching them.

Faye captioned the video: “This is your sign to have flower grandparents instead of flower girls at your wedding.”

Faye shared that “There were lots of tears” and not just her husband’s. One viewer noted, “Something about an older married couple laying the way for a new one is just perfection, actually.” Faye responded, “I love this so much.”

Another viewer commented, “You’re the richest person in the world if you get this.” Faye answered, “I think my partner was feeling very rich in this moment.”

Faye shared another sweet moment just before the ceremony began. Not only did they have flower grandparents, but the groom hugged everyone as they walked down the aisle. Faye wrote, “This wasn’t planned but it made for the BEST moments and photos.”
