Parents can have their disputes, but when they overcome them for the sake of their children, they show their true parenting chops. At Brittany Peck's wedding, her biological father stopped the ceremony to invite Peck's stepfather to join them in their walk down the aisle – a gesture that none of them will ever forget.
"He came up to me, reached out and grabbed my hand and he said 'hey, you've worked for this as hard as I have, you deserve this as much as I do, you're gonna help us walk our daughter down the aisle,'" step-dad Todd Cendrosky told WKYC in Cleveland, Ohio. Peck's biological dad, Todd Bachman, said, "What better way to thank somebody than to assist me walking our daughter down the aisle?"
Their 14-year relationship has had its troubles; "It hasn't always been peaches and cream by any stretch of the imagination," Bachman said. Fortunately, they were able to put their difficulties aside for this unforgettable day - and the beautiful moments were all captured on camera by wedding photographer Delia Blackburn!
