One woman's children made up almost the entire bridal party at a wedding.
"When you birthed the whole bridal party," Trina Neale titled a video with more than 6 million views between Facebook and Instagram. In her viral post, Trina, 47, demonstrated how her five children made up almost the entire bridal party of her second eldest son's wedding, which took place on Nov. 9.
Trina, the mother of the groom, started the video. In order behind her was her 8-year-old son George, the ring bearer; 14-year-old daughter Tenleigh, a bridesmaid; 10-year-old daughter Teaghan, a flower girl; 21-year-old son Ashton, the groom; and 27-year-old Jonathan, the best man.
The cute group video was quickly filmed as they were leaving the SpringHill Suites by Marriott and on the way to Ashton's wedding. He got married to bride Melissa Link.
At the wedding venue in Maryland, Trina looked around and came to the realization of how special it was to have all of the family together.
"There are not many words to describe such a moment, only emotions," she exclusively tells PEOPLE. "It warmed my soul beyond measure to see my little babies all coming together joyfully to celebrate this monumental occasion with their brother."
Seeing everyone getting ready for the big day together, from the best man finishing the lacing on the bridesmaid's dress to the groom adjusting the tie just to the right on the little ring bearer, was Trina's "favorite moment as a momma."
"That was when I teared up and in true proud mama style, amongst the mess and the confusion, I whipped out my phone and snapped a candid picture," she says.

She continued: "Then as we all rode the elevator down together, dressed to the nines, I looked around at my little wedding party and thought, 'Wow! Look at God. This, this right here is life at its fullest.'"
Trina believes her family moment represents what most people can only hope to experience.
"That truly was one of those moments we live for and aspire to have. But to get to them takes sacrifice," she says. "It takes time, patience and a load of love but when it falls into place your heart will explode with emotion."
