A bride who teaches elementary school broke into tears at her wedding when her students surprised her with a stack of audio messages.
Isabella Mosur, 27, from Orlando, Florida, loves her job as a first-grade teacher, valuing the strong bonds she builds with her students.
Recently, Isabella’s work was noticed when she was voted as her school’s Teacher Of The Year, and parents started to take note of her efforts, too.
One mom, aware of Isabella’s upcoming wedding and how thoughtful she had been as a teacher, suggested to other moms that they should record a surprise message of thanks to be played on her wedding.
After planning a bridal shower for Isabella in the school, the moms then used the time she was off to record messages from their kids, compiling them and sending them to the wedding DJ and informing Isabella’s sister.
Then, on February 28th, at the World Equestrian Center in Ocala, Isabella sat with her new husband, Edwin Reyes, and the DJ announced that there were a few people who couldn’t make the wedding but wanted to send in messages of congratulations.
Isabella said she was very confused, as all her friends and family were able to attend, but as soon as she heard the first message from one of her students, she said her heart dropped.
What followed was a series of loving audio notes, bringing the stunned bride to wipe away tears of pride.
The moment was captured by the couple’s videographer, Miranda Kay Media, who saw her post on social media go viral.
Isabella said: “When our DJ announced that there were a few people that couldn’t be there that wanted to leave messages for us, I was very confused as almost all of our friends and family were able to attend.
“As soon as I heard my first student’s message, my heart dropped.
“I was completely caught off guard in the most beautiful way.
“Having my students be a part of my special day meant everything to me.
“Being a teacher is a huge part of my identity, and my students are my world.
“I was absolutely speechless.
“The response to the moment and the video has been overwhelmingly positive.
“I’ve truly enjoyed reading all of the kind words from family, friends, and even people I don’t know personally.
“I take a great deal of pride in my work, so being able to share that experience with others has been very meaningful.”
