MCCALL, Idaho – This NASCAR driver’s wedding video will move you to tears.

Brian Scott recited his vows to his bride, Whitney Kay, but then did something unexpected.

He got down on his knee and then also recited vows to Kay’s 3-year-old daughter, Brielle.

He looked her in the eyes and promised to love and care for her as well.

About 4:13 into the video Scott told her:

“I promise to always hold your hand and skip with you down the street and bring comfort to your life. I vow to make you say your prayers before you eat. I promise to read you stories at night, to always tuck you in real tight. I vow to show you how a man should treat a woman in my relationship with your mother. And above all else, I vow to protect you, care for you, and love you forever.”

The precious moment moved the guests to tears.

Scott told HuffPost Weddings the entire moment was “emotional and surreal.”

“It was really when I was reading my vows to Brielle that I got the most choked up,” he told the Huffington Post. “It really all just hits home in that moment — you’re there and dressed up and all the people around. You’re living in the moment. It affects you more than when you write it or plan for it or practice it.”

The Scotts now live in Charlotte, North Carolina.

They welcomed a baby boy last November.
