Groom Stuns Stepdad By Taking His Last Name On The Altar

A groom gave his beloved stepdad a beautiful surprise on the altar when it was revealed he’d secretly changed his surname to his so he and his wife would be taking it in marriage. For Mike Holbrook, 26, from near Lexington, Kentucky, stepdad John Reece has been the only father figure he’s ever known, as John came into his life when he was very young. Despite building a father-son bond over the years, Mike never got the opportunity to change his last name, and so he thought his wedding day would be the perfect time to announce the gesture. Ahead of the ceremony, Mike legally changed his last name to Reece, while he and his now-wife, Nikki, 31, also had to hide decorations that stated their new surname. Then, on October 12, at Boone’s Trace National Golf Club in Richmond, the couple stood on the altar as the officiant said, "Instead of presenting to you this day Mr. And Mrs. Holbrook, I now present to you, for the very first time, Mr. and Mrs. Reece.” The gesture not only took John by surprise, but large numbers of friends and family, who were also brought to tears by the gesture.
