Grieving Bride In Wedding Dress Sobs On Grave Of Dead Fiancé On Day They Were Supposed To Marry

Dressed in a flowing white wedding dress, Jessica Padgett bows her head as she kneels at her fiancé's grave on the day they were meant to tie the knot.

This heartbreakingly beautiful picture was captured on September 29, when Jessica was supposed to marry the 'man of her dreams', Kendall Murphy.

The couple tragically never got the chance to wed after firefighter Kendall, 27, was hit and killed by an alleged drunk driver in November last year.

But on what should have been their big day, 10 months after the tragedy, Jessica bravely wore her bridal gown and marked the date herself.


With her hair and makeup done, the courageous bride was pictured holding a bouquet of flowers as she paid an emotional visit to Kendall's headstone.

She tearfully knelt beside the grave, with her head resting on her hands, before being joined by other loved ones, who knelt down beside her.

“I wanted to be where he was at,” Jessica said.

The bride, who made "broken look beautiful" and "strong look invincible", also honoured her beloved fiancé in other ways on their wedding day.

In powerful images, taken by Loving Life Photography in Indiana, US, she smiles beside Kendall's firefighter gear and gazes at a picture of him.
