1. Movies
Movies always have a life struggle that many of have to deal with, but movies always tend to over dramatize it to make for a more appealing movie. In the case of step parents, it always seems like the end of the world type of battle between enemies.

The wedding was made extremely special by this gesture. There was supposedly already tension between the two dads before the wedding, probably because they disagreed who got the honour of giving their daughter away. So when the wedding had started, Biological dad Todd Bachman suddenly stopped and ran straight for Todd Cendrosky made everyone almost panic at this sudden change. But soon they all realised what he was actually tried to do which made the wedding extremely special and emotional. The wedding Photographer Delia Blackburn was interviewed by BuzzFeed and said, “Everyone was a little bit concerned because there had been tension.”

5. All The Tears
Being a step parent as well, Blackburn said, “The groom was extremely happy…the bride, she was in tears because this was a little bit of a struggle for her. I had to tell myself to hurry up and get the shot because I was losing it.” Not one person that wedding did not shed a tear. It was quite an emotional union.
