"You know how the bride makes her entrance and everybody turns to look at her? That's when I look at the groom. 'Cause his face says it all, you know? The pure love there."

You might recognize this quote from 27 Dresses, and boy, does it ring true. That's why we rounded up our favorite photos of emotional grooms when they see (or hear) their partners for the first time on their wedding days, whether it's at the end of the aisle or during their first look. Check them out below (and we suggest having some tissues at the ready).

1. First look, first cry—same thing, right?

2. Let it out!

3. We can't decide what's more beautiful—the venue, or this moment.

4. Just one example of why it's a good idea to carry a handkerchief on your wedding day.

5. We'd love to hear these vows.

6. This is the definition of "tears of joy."

7. That "just married" feeling. *insert heart eyes emoji*

8. The moment he's been waiting for.

9. Have you ever seen anything sweeter?

10. We can't stop smiling at these two.

11. Proof that a "first read" can be just as emotional as a first look.
