Groom spent months learning sign language to include bride's deaf parents in his vows

When Zach was getting ready to read his vows, Hallie's parents had resigned to catching up on it later. They didn't expect their future son-in-law to spend months learning sign language just to include them in his vows. The absolute tear-jerker clip went viral on the internet. The reel featured the bride, Hallie, and the groom, Zach, standing together on their wedding day as the groom read out his vows. But what caught the attention of the viewers and made the clip extremely special was how Zach made his vows in sign language. The clip was originally posted by wedding filmmaker, @filmsbyry, on July 27, 2025, and instantly grabbed the attention of countless internet users, garnering over 3.4 million views and 380K likes so far. 

The caption of the wholesome clip explained the video in detail, stating, "Zach spent months learning sign language leading up to his wedding, so that on the day he married Hallie, he could sign his vows to her, making sure her parents and family felt every word. It was such a meaningful moment for everyone there." This deeply emotional gesture by Zach is indeed a testament to his love for Hallie. Zach did not stop at just memorizing the vows for his future in-laws; he also learned the sign language.  

In another clip, Zach can be seen presenting his ASL (American Sign Language) certificate as a gift to his in-laws. The certificate was not just a piece of paper but a symbol of dedication, unconditional love, and respect towards his now life partner, Hallie. Zach had spent months secretly learning ASL so he could communicate with his bride’s deaf parents to ensure they were included in the moment as he read his vows for their daughter. The parents, in return, could not contain their excitement and could be seen smiling from ear to ear. As the parents held the certificates in their hands, they expressed their gratitude with many thank yous and tender hugs.
