An emotional dad blurted out his daughter looked like a big paper towel during a first-look reveal on her wedding day sending them both into hysterics.
Dad Chuck Chamness shares a special bond with daughter Sally as she is his only daughter from four children, so he was already emotional ahead of her wedding in Telluride, Colorado.
Sally, 29, was the first of her siblings to get married, and the family wanted to capture the dress reveal moment on the big day, October 15, 2022, on a porch above the house where the family were staying.
As soon as Chuck, 60, set eyes on his daughter, the choked-up dad blurted out the off-the-cuff comment that she looked like a “big paper towel.”
The response, partly in shock at seeing his daughter in her dress for the first time, was in relation to the texture of Sally’s dress, which the bride pointed out she agreed with through her laughter.
Chuck then pulled the moment back after composing himself, confirming his daughter looked beautiful, while Sally couldn’t stop laughing.
Sally said, due to the laughs she and her family have, this humorous moment turned out to be the perfect alternative to the typical first-look shoot.
The couple’s wedding videographer, Summer Dawn Films, later shared the video on social media, where it received an outpouring of love and millions of views.

A paper towel company even reached out to Sally and her family, offering them free paper towels due to the wholesomeness of the moment.
Sally said: “I didn’t expect the first words out of his mouth to be about looking like a paper towel.
“But, I had to acknowledge that the dress had a bit of a paper towel-like texture, and he also said I was beautiful and I know he thought I was the prettiest paper towel in the world
“Our family has a lot of fun and laughs together so it was fitting and typical that the first look turned out to be humorous.

“Prior to the moment, the emotions of the day were high and my mom, dad and I were all tearing up a little in anticipation for the first look, so his comment provided well-timed comic relief.
“As you can see in the video, even though I loved my wedding dress, I found humor in his comment and even understood why he might have thought the fabric looked similar to a paper towel.
“It seems crazy to think millions of people have seen this moment and found it as funny as I did when it happened.”
