A lot of little girls dream about what their wedding day will be like. They always imagine what they will wear, what the band will play, and, of course, who their groom will be.
On Sarah Ray’s big day, she did something no one expected. Keep reading to know more.
Sarah Ray was all set for her big day in Tennessee. She was dressed in her beautiful white wedding gown and was ready to say her vows and make her fiance her husband.
But as the wedding was underway, the bride received a call. She attended the call and, without saying a word, rushed out of her wedding. No one understood what had happened.
She left the church filled with people waiting to attend her wedding. Her groom, who was waiting for her to walk down the aisle, decided to forgive her for her hasty exit. Perhaps because he knew that she must have had a good reason for doing so.
A picture that was shared by hundreds of people showed the bride running on the road in her wedding gown. The reason for her abruptly leaving is very understandable.
When she was about to walk down the aisle, she received an unfortunate phone call that informed her that her father and grandmother had been involved in a car accident. She knew she could not abandon her family and decided to make a run for it.
She grabbed a pair of flat shoes, put them on, and made her way to her family. Since Sarah was a nurse by profession, her instinct to save lives kicked in immediately, and she knew she had to rush to be by her family’s side in case they needed medical attention.
When she got to the scene of the accident, she realized that everything was alright. She was calmed down by learning that her family had not sustained any harm, as she had feared.
Together with her family, she arrived back at the church, so the wedding could go on as it needed to.

Braless TV News Anchors Ignite Intense Public Debate
In a bid to boost viewership, Albanian TV station Zjarr made headlines with an unconventional approach: hiring young journalist Enki Bracaj, who delivered news segments without wearing a bra. Albania, a traditionally conservative Balkan nation where about 60% of the population identifies as Muslim, reacted strongly to the station’s choice, sparking heated debates and garnering widespread attention on social media.
Despite the initial backlash, Zjarr’s strategy proved remarkably successful. “In Albania, where political influence often manipulates the news, viewers were ready for a medium that delivered information ‘naked’—both literally and symbolically,” explained Zjarr TV owner Ismet Drishti in a 2016 interview with AFP.
Drishti emphasized that the presentation aimed not at sensationalism but at promoting transparency in news reporting. “We aren’t selling sex; we’re presenting the news as it is. This approach is both symbolic and effective for publicity.”
Enki Bracaj, then 21, quickly became a local celebrity after joining Zjarr in 2016. She explained that the idea to present braless was her own, inspired by her decision to wear an open blouse to her job interview.
“In this competitive industry, I just found a way to stand out,” Enki said, noting that her family was supportive of her choice. “To succeed, I knew I had to be bold and offer something different.”
When Enki eventually left Zjarr, rumors circulated that salary disputes were to blame, but the station felt she overstepped when she took a modeling opportunity with Playboy.
Her successor, 24-year-old Greta Hoxhaj, followed a similar style in her on-air presentation. “I worked in local television for five years with little recognition,” Hoxhaj said. “In just three months at Zjarr, I became a star.” She noted that her appearance on air was far more provocative than her everyday style.
Videos of these Albanian news anchors have since gone viral, igniting debate. While some viewers support their choice of dress, others argue that media outlets should prioritize professionalism and respect.
“Too many women on TV have necklines that are way too low,” one viewer commented. Another added, “It’s disheartening to see such tactics used just to gain screen time.”
Despite the criticism, Hoxhaj remains unfazed. “What matters is that I’m succeeding in my work and enjoying my newfound fame. I have a beautiful life filled with love,” she shared.
