A Bride’s son gave an emotional and heartfelt speech to his stepdad during their wedding celebrations capturing the hearts of people online and leaving guests in tears.

Jesus Gonzalez, 14, surprised his mother by getting up to deliver the speech, something she says she was not expecting.

The video took place in Valley Springs, California, on June 10, as Orlando Abujen, Jesus’ stepdad, married his biological mother, Berta Alicia Mancha.

Orlando came into Jesus’ life three years ago, and they formed a deep bond together by playing online video games.

So, on their wedding day, Jesus ensured Orlando knew just how much the bond meant to him.
