Proclaiming marriage vows is an emotional experience for many couples but what made Brian Scott's wedding ceremony even more special was that he recited a separate set of vows to his stepdaughter, Brielle. He got down on bended knee and promised always to tuck her in at night, to love and protect her, and to show her how a man should treat a woman through his relationship with her mom.
The groom, a NASCAR driver, married his wife, Whitney Kay, in McCall, Idaho, on a snowy day in January of last year. But it wasn't until recently that their wedding video went viral, with over 918,000 views as of publication.
The couple's cinematographer, PenWeddings, writes on YouTube, "Brian came into Whitney and Breezy's lives a couple of years ago, and his love for both of them is almost tangible. There were many amazing moments over their wedding weekend, but nothing touched us more than their sweet notes and vows to one another...except perhaps for Brian's vows to Brielle. If that doesn't bring you to tears, I don't know what will."

In an interview with The Huffington Post, Scott revealed that he was surprised by how choked up he became while expressing his feelings towards his stepdaughter. "It really all just hits home in that moment...It affects you more than when you write it or plan for it or practice it. You get engulfed by it," he says.
Ten months later, the Scotts welcomed their son Joseph into the world. "Just being there for [the kids] and enjoying family moments together and playing with them and hearing them laugh and seeing them smile — all of those things are so much better than any of the negative aspects people like to bring up about having kids. It’s not baggage — it’s great addition [to my life]," he says.
Congratulations to the happy couple!
