This is the touching moment a newlywed couple surprised the bride's grandparents by dressing up in their wedding outfits - after they couldn't make it to the big day.

Anna Rietti married Joey DeLay on July 20 in Chicago, Illinois in the presence of their friends and family.

But Anna's grandparents, George, 100, and Annie, 87, weren't able to travel from Great Neck, New York, after their flight was affected by an IT outage.

Anna had planned to visit her grandparents less than a month later for grandma Annie's birthday - and took this opportunity to spring a surprise.
