When groom Billy Bastin, 26, got the signal to turn around for a “first look” with his bride-to-be, Sally, he got the shock of his life.
When groom Billy Bastin, 26, got the signal to turn around for a “first look” with his bride-to-be, Sally, he got the shock of his life when he saw his brother instead.
The close-knit family rallied and tried to keep their spirits up for the bride and groom's sake. Their sister, Lexi, 22, stepped into the line of groomsmen to take Johnny's place. The family had received notice of a"supply drop" for Johnny's submarine, which meant"there's no way the boat's coming back anytime soon," says Lea. “I cried for easily a week before the wedding simply because my whole family wasn’t going to be there.”"All of the sudden, starts giggling," Lea says,"She goes, 'Except he's here!' And she turned the camera and he was sitting next to her.
Lea knew she would need the bride's blessing before moving forward with the plan, and"she was all for it," Lea says. Sally wanted to see the moment when the brothers reunited, but she also didn't want to spoil her actual first-look moment, so she arranged for her photographer to be there to capture the surprise.Every wedding guest expected Johnny to be at sea, and"we didn't want anyone to scream out Johnny's name" if they spotted him, Lea recalls.
