“If one day you ever have a change of heart that you don’t love my daughter anymore, please don’t hurt her,” he tells the groom. “Just bring her back to me and give her back to me.”

“I just recovered crying from the ‘pls dont hurt her’ short clip and now I’ve got the full one. I’m bawling again,” another user said.
“The part that made me cry was the part where he told him that if he doesn’t want her anymore, send her back,” another shared.
