Jos\u00e9 Victor Flach, a mechanical engineer in Brazil, arranged for his fiance, C\u00edntia Bonfante Pereira, a speech therapist, to have her students with <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/parents-balk-sibling-funeral-down-syndrome-aborted\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Down syndrome<\/a> walk down the aisle as ring bearers and flower girls.<\/p>\n<p>In April, the happy couple shared the video on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/B_D6AFvDEG1\/?utm_source=ig_embed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, which has since gone viral again for Down Syndrome Awareness Month. The bride and groom stood before the priest, who stopped talking, only for music to begin playing. C\u00edntia turned to see a procession of her students walking towards her. She was immediately overwhelmed with emotion as she waved to them.<\/p>\n<p>One little boy led the way, holding hands with another student, while beautifully attired little girls adorned with flowers in their hair walked forward carrying flowers and lollipops. Another pair even drove down the aisle in an electric car! When they reached the end of the aisle, both Jos\u00e9 and C\u00edntia greeted them warmly, one by one, with hugs and handshakes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/B_D6AFvDEG1\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;
