A lot of little girls dream about what their wedding day will be like. They always imagine what they will wear, what the band will play, and, of course, who their groom will be.
On Sarah Ray’s big day, she did something no one expected. Keep reading to know more.
Sarah Ray was all set for her big day in Tennessee. She was dressed in her beautiful white wedding gown and was ready to say her vows and make her fiance her husband.
But as the wedding was underway, the bride received a call. She attended the call and, without saying a word, rushed out of her wedding. No one understood what had happened.
She left the church filled with people waiting to attend her wedding. Her groom, who was waiting for her to walk down the aisle, decided to forgive her for her hasty exit. Perhaps because he knew that she must have had a good reason for doing so.
A picture that was shared by hundreds of people showed the bride running on the road in her wedding gown. The reason for her abruptly leaving is very understandable.
When she was about to walk down the aisle, she received an unfortunate phone call that informed her that her father and grandmother had been involved in a car accident. She knew she could not abandon her family and decided to make a run for it.
She grabbed a pair of flat shoes, put them on, and made her way to her family. Since Sarah was a nurse by profession, her instinct to save lives kicked in immediately, and she knew she had to rush to be by her family’s side in case they needed medical attention.
When she got to the scene of the accident, she realized that everything was alright. She was calmed down by learning that her family had not sustained any harm, as she had feared.
Together with her family, she arrived back at the church, so the wedding could go on as it needed to.

I Enlisted a Pretend Partner for Our Family Meal – It Became the Most Rewarding Choice of My Life
Family gatherings were the worst for Lara, especially since her sister, Emily, began to make fun of her love life, or lack thereof. Determined to sit through her father’s birthday dinner, Lara decides to hire a boyfriend for the night. Little did she know that a romantic comedy would play out.
I love my family, but family gatherings used to be a nightmare for me. Every single time we got together, my sister Emily would find some way or the other to poke fun at my single life.
Last Thanksgiving, she took it too far and even set a place at the table for my “imaginary boyfriend,” complete with a hand-drawn face on a napkin. Everyone around the table laughed while I forced a smile.
“It’s funny, Lara!” she would say whenever I brought up the incident.
It was anything but funny.
Now, my father’s birthday is coming up, and of course, it was to be celebrated with a family dinner.
“There’s no way I can sit through another one of those events with my family,” I told my friend, Kate, when we met for coffee.
“I’m telling you now, Emily probably has something up her sleeve already,” I grumbled.
“Then just hire someone out for the night!” Kate chuckled, adding sugar to her coffee.
“Hire a man?” I exclaimed.
“Yes! My sister did it through an agency. She didn’t want to go to her ex-boyfriend’s wedding by herself, so she found the agency. Look, it’s all above board and the guys do exactly what you need them to do.”
“It’s not… sleazy?” I asked, trying to think of a better word.
“No, Lara,” she giggled. “And you know my sister. She’s so prim and proper! She wouldn’t have gone ahead with it if she didn’t think that everything was legitimate.”
Which is how I ended up hiring a date to the family gathering. I found Jake through the same agency that Kate’s sister used. He was charming, easy to talk to, and seemed to understand exactly what I needed.
We met a few times before the dinner to get our story straight, because the last thing I wanted was Emily to get wind of something fishy.
“So, the story is that we met at a mutual friend’s party, hit it off over their dog, and have been dating for three months,” Jake said, grinning. “Sounds about right.”
“Look, any story involving myself and a dog are winners,” I replied, opening our Chinese takeout for dinner.
“And I’m an architect with a passion for cooking, right?” he confirmed.
