After sharing his vows with Jessica, the groom, Jefferson, looks past her shoulder at Giovanna and asks her to step forward. He lists all of the things he believes he should do for her as her daddy. “Gi,” he nicknames her, “If I could ask God anything, I would ask that he give you me as a daughter… I would be the proudest father in the world, for having such a beautiful, intelligent and educated daughter as you.” Little Gi smiles the biggest smile she can muster.
