This is quite possibly the most shocking video of the year, and it is definitely right in time to show the world what proper holiday spirit really looks like. Most people would absolutely never do what this young woman has done, and that is what makes this video so shocking and heartwarming. This young woman is incredibly generous.

A bride-to-be called off her engagement a week before the big day, and this had to be a devastating moment for her. However, she has turned something that is very negative and sad in her life into a beautiful experience for someone else. She has donated her dream wedding to a couple she has never met. Kolbie Sanders, the girl in the video, is 24 years old. She turned heartbreak into generosity by offering up her $3,500 venue to strangers after she split with her fiancé, whose name is Skylar Cotton. The University of Texas at Tyler student told friends on Facebook that she had just 24 hours to find a couple prepared to get married at a moment’s notice. The winning couple would be getting married at Belle Vue wedding venue in a week. She was inundated with messages from hundreds of husbands and brides-to-be desperate to win her big day.

She even had people commenting and messaging her to recommend other people and friends they knew could greatly benefit from winning this once and a lifetime gift. The young woman’s audience was able to watch the drawing to find the lucky, lucky winner by watching this exact video. Our former bride recorded the entire experience. When the video begins, she shows a large bowl with a top, possibly a strainer of some kind, that she has placed all of the names in. She wrote every person’s name on a slip of blue paper or post it note. She then put all of the slips into the bowl. Right in front of the camera, she shakes up the bowl. At one point, it looks like one of the slips are about to fall out of the bowl, but when she shakes it again, the slip goes back in.

After vigorously shaking the bowl full of names, she then completes the last step that all of her viewers have been anxiously waiting for. She reaches in and pulls out the lucky winner. The name of the young woman who has won the wedding’s name is read out loud. This would have to be one of the best moments of this woman’s life, except for the actual moment she says, “I do”! The young woman in the video graciously shows her audience the slip with the winning new bride’s name on it, and she even mentions that she had several people recommending this exact woman’s name. Obviously, the right person has won the ultimate prize!

The world needs a constant reminder of how to show other people love and compassion. This woman has certainly done that! Hats off for this lady!
