EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Touching wedding-dance tribute to bride's late father goes viral

 
Video: A bride, who lost her father before her wedding, received a special surprise during the father/daughter wedding dance: her brothers and grandfather sang and dance in his honor. Now, the video has gone viral and the family visits TODAY to talk about its impact.
Countless wedding videos crop up on YouTube, but one is so touching that it’s still going viral a full two years after the bride tossed her bouquet.
On Monday, that bride, Andrea Stockton, came on TODAY to talk about her continuing viral fame — and announce some big news.
The, video, titled "Bride's Special Dance," opens with Andrea Stocking getting ready for her first dance at her wedding reception. Then her brother announces a surprise — one that has to do with their father, who had succumbed to pancreatic cancer earlier that year.
“We’re missing someone pretty important this evening that would be obviously here for the dance with his little girl,” Nick Middleton announces, pausing to take a breath and brush a tear from his eye. He then explains that he recorded himself singing the song “Butterfly Kisses,” and that that recording will be playing as each of the men in the family takes a turn dancing with his sister.
A stunned Andrea stares in open-mouthed shock, and then starts to sob.
Two years later, that video can still make Stocking weep, and it's as big a hit as ever on YouTube, where it has racked more than 4 million views. “I’m absolutely shocked,” Stocking told Natalie Morales Monday on TODAY, where she was joined by brother Nick as well as her husband, Luke Stocking. “All of America, apparently, loves to watch me cry."
She added: “It’s really about the amazing gesture that Nick did. And it’s shocking every time. It keeps coming back.”
Stocking admitted that even now it is difficult for her to watch the video because she becomes so emotional.
