Probably a grandfather? Or an older dad... Either way, bless him - I want to give him a great big hug!
Perhaps an older bride? Or she was raised by her Grandfather?

I feel you, November's (we celebrate Father's day in Nov) have been difficult since dad passed. Lately I found out I feel rather passionate about him not being able to walk me down the isle. I had no idea I cared that much. Not that I'm getting married in any near future, but I believe you know what I mean.

Ah what a blessing for an elder to witness this amazing gathering, I also do wedding photography its always a bless to capture those happy moments here is my work https://tcproductions.co.za/
I'm moved. During my wedding, my father was crying much as well. Here are my wedding photos: http://www.ngstudio.ca/blog/71-havin-and-nuray-fantastic-outdoor-wedding-photoshoot
Can someone gather all these dads for me so that I can give them a great big group hug?
Tears are no longer the reserve of Women... coz I think someone is cutting onions in my house without my consent. Bless You Dad
Joy is the first word that came to my mind too. It's so lovely.
Load More Replies...This is the first one I've seen that isn't crying (Yet) I wanna hug them all :)
Great lighting, especially on the veil and the Father's face.
Load More Replies...Dads love their daughters, don't they? This is so beautiful to see.
All these women are so lucky. I for one know my father will never look at me that way, because 1) I don't want to marry and 2) he is a deadbeat who cut me out of his life many years ago. I never had a father figure growing up or to this day.
I'm so sorry. My Dad was about the same. But my Grandfather was my Father figure. He would have been 101 if still living.
Load More Replies...Hey guys, there are many like us out here making our own families. Keep your head up and keep those who love you close. It's bittersweet seeing this side of reality for some lucky daughters. I hope the best for all of you 💙
This is a really beautiful and honest image. It derserves to be higher up the list!
When you know she will always be your little girl even if she is going to be married
Surely, many of these are grandfathers, not fathers. Who gets married when their dad is so old??
It is actually her father. I took the picture! He was a great character. Sadly he died not that long after. At least he got to see his daughter up the aisle. chriswrightphotography.co.uk

Probably pretending that he has something in his eye. ;-) SO sweet!
Hes crying/getting something out his eye while she just laughs at him :) Thats what I'd do
Photo 1: That dress cost how much? Photo 2: Sob, I was going to get a new fishing boat, please hold me.
hahahahaa!!! thank you for this. i've been crying through each and every pic. i needed this break in this tsunami of emotions. :)
Load More Replies...Vintage treatment or filter, modern digital photo
Load More Replies...What a gorgeous photo this is! The delighted dad in the doorway, the mirror, the daughter’s reflection... it’s just perfect!
Nope....not giving her away. Taking her right back home again. :)
I'm sorry, I cannot not say it; He reminds me of that "You don't say" meme with Nicolas Cage. Yes, I'll show myself out. (Also, still a really good picture - Just can't unsee the meme.)
It's cute how the little girl on the left is looking at him too!
I thought this even before I saw your comment! #GreatMindsThinkAlike
Load More Replies...you are right Indian marriages are colourful.. Colours would have brought out more of it.
Load More Replies...How touching! You can see the tremendous love this father has for his daughter!
Two dads, so far, who appear to be wiping their eyes with their notes for their toast. This is so sweet. One expression on two faces.
He’s in awe by the beauty of his daughter in her lovely dress!! How sweet!
Lovely. I really want to see more of that dress. Looks lovely. :)
She looks just like her papa! Those adorable little noses! I just want to boop them. :-)
Dang that dress is beautiful! And she looks beautiful in that dress!
That lady in the back is doing what Oprah refers to as "the ugly cry", lol .
wearing your mother's shoes, and her apron as your wedding dress.
Load More Replies...As a man I can go from undies and a t shirt to super fly in a tux in about 3 minutes
Load More Replies..."Oh sweetie! You look gorg-" "HEY DAD!" lol. Still would put the pic in my album tho. Makes for a good smile.
Load More Replies...I have to say, of all the photos this is my favorite-the composition is exquisite and unique. You do not sacrifice the view of the dress and the daughters reaction for the fathers. It captures both in a beautiful way and it encapsulates the moment and it’s emotions for both. Well done.
You feel the love and the memories in their eyes. Totally agree with you.
Load More Replies..."Now you be sure and come to dinner every Sunday. Don't forget!"
Load More Replies...This is almost too perfect, the surrounding too beautiful, Dad too handsome, to be real.
That is an absolutely beautiful dress, I've never seen one like it, wow the details are so pretty!
I'm thinking this is a beach wedding. Dad has his boutonniere and his champers.
I hope they later photoshopped the things off the dressing table. Such a beautiful photo of the MOTB.
Load More Replies...Two firsts: Dad sees daughter in bridal dress and daughter sees dad wearing a kilt. Looks like Kennedy modern tartan.
Dad, speechless, and his grandson, totally copying his reaction. Mom enjoying her husband's emotional response. All so sweet.
He must be thinking that his wife and he sure did a great job! I love his expression! What a treasure this would be to have forever...
Nor was the shape, but maybe they had a theme to which it fit perfectly? (And maybe it was all better in color)
Load More Replies...wow, perfect moment, love it. check my website https://www.dawidmitoraj.pl
This article really breaks my heart. I grew up without my dad, so I got married without him. And now that I have terminal cancer, I know that my own children won't have their Mum at their own weddings. Life is so unfair.
I have seen so many types of wedding pics, pre wedding pics etc...I have never seen Father of the Bride first seen pics, I feel cheated all these years. Thank you to not only the photographers that caught these really honest pics, but a big thanks to the person that did this post, all the feels.
For those that have come straight to the comments section - bring a box of tissues if you're planning on reading the article
I was seven years old when my father abandoned me. I've never really known what having one is like. It just seems normal not to have one in my eyes.
He left before I was born so its good that I don't have any memory of him. Hurts less whenever I think about it.
Load More Replies...My dad and everyone else's dad are the best dads in the whole wide world. :)
He must be the secretive type. He will cry when he is alone. Some people dont like to show thwir emotions to others. Some people don't show it because they feel that if others see them crying, they will cry as well.
Load More Replies...They all look so incredibly proud. And you can see almost all of their eyes say something along the lines of; "Can't believe my baby girl is at this point in life now". Makes me sad I won't be able to see my dad one day pull the same face. But happy for these women they can. :-)
