Brittany Grigg has grown up being very close to her grandfather.  Her Grandmomma passed away when she was little, and Brittany promised her grandfather that she would always be there for him.  And she has kept that promise.

The bride was afraid that her grandfather would not be able to attend the most special day of her life because of everything going on so the plan was to get married in the mountains and then visit him on the way home.  A very kind Gastonia nursing home made it possible for Brittany and her fiance to get married so that her 95 year old granddad could witness it in person.  And it is the sweetest thing you will see all day.
