An Ohio couple tied the knot in Covington during a special ceremony in front of a special guest.
This wedding centered on their 3-year-old daughter, who was born with serious health complications.
The new Mr. and Mrs. Wise exchanged vows surrounded by their sweet children. The magical night was also a miracle night because their little girl was there.
Doctors told the couple that the odds were stacked against baby Oakleigh.
“They told us that, you know, she may not be here for this. So it is definitely very emotional,” said dad Mike.
Mike and Samantha spent years making wishes in hospital waiting rooms and years wishing for more moments with their little girl.
Wednesday, when it came time to kiss the bride, Oakleigh was by her parents’ side.
The couple says Kenton County Magistrate Stephen Hoffman made their wish come true.
Hoffman was touched by their story. He says he wanted to surprise the couple with something special, so he planned the ceremony.
“I just wish that they have the best of life and everything they can do for their whole family,” says Hoffman.
This special occasion is proof that love conquers all.
“Have faith in your heart, because things can always turn around, and I think we’re proof of that,” said Mike.
Next week, the Wise family is getting another wish granted thanks to Make-A-Wish. The foundation is sending them to Florida for a Disney World vacation.
