WHEELCHAIR BOUND BRIDE SURPRISES GROOM BY WALKING DOWN THE AISLE
Written by Brittany Styles on November 19, 2021
29-year-old Chelsie Hill was involved in a car accident, in 2010, that left her paralyzed from the waist down. Since becoming paralyzed, she became the CEO and founder of the Rollettes, a wheelchair dance team in Los Angeles. So cool! She has become quite popular, and an advocate for wheelchair users, with 167,000 Instagram followers.
Chelsie had been dreaming of her wedding day since she was a little girl. She imagined herself walking down the aisle on her wedding day, and standing eye-to-eye with her groom; something she thought was no longer possible. With the help of leg braces and a walker, she made it happen! The best part…he had no idea she was doing this, and was completely shocked and overcome with emotion! I dare you to not cry. Insider has the full story.

“After my accident, I wasn’t sure if I would ever find someone who truly loved all of me. You have accepted me fully, honored me, and adored all the parts of me,” Hill told Bloomfield in her vows, as she shared on Instagram.
Chelsie also had a special reveal with her bridesmaids. She did the same with her dad, and they also did a pretty sweet father/daughter dance!

“I want to stress that there’s nothing wrong with sitting down in your chair,” Hill said. “But for me growing up, I always imagined myself walking down the aisle.” “And I just wanted to feel that — not that my disability has taken anything away from me — but I just wanted to feel that heart to heart and stand up there eye to eye with him,” she added. “That was just really something really important to me personally.”
