Their wedding singer was Ed Sheeran

Kya and Matt were short on money, and the wedding they wanted kept slipping out of reach. more

Things were worst in the stretches when Matt was out of work. Still, they were a happy family, and they had started planning a big wedding, right down to the guest list. Then Kya lost her mother, and the big day was put off with no new date.

Matt knew how much a dream wedding meant to her, and as time passed it looked less and less likely. So he got in touch with KIIS 1065, a radio station in Sydney, Australia, and asked for help giving her the wedding he felt she deserved. The station invited them onto The Kyle and Jackie O Show, the morning program hosted by Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O.

Matt's request for help puts the couple on the air with The Kyle and Jackie O Show.

On the air, the hosts thanked Matt for reaching out. They talked about the hard time Kya had been through, and how she was raising two kids while trying to keep the family afloat.

Then came the news. With help from their friends at the Sydney Bridal Expo, the station was going to throw the couple a $60,000 wedding, every bit of it paid for.

On the wedding day, Kya and Matt said their vows, in sickness and in health. After that, the newlyweds heard a few kind words. Matt was a lucky man, and Kya was lucky to have him.

It was time for the first dance. They had picked "Thinking Out Loud" by the British singer Ed Sheeran, and the hosts knew it, so they had organized what they called "a little wedding singer." The door opened and Ed Sheeran walked in. He stepped up to the microphone in a white shirt, purple tie and brown suspenders and sang while the newlyweds danced.

Plenty of people noticed the groom. One much-liked comment says everyone deserves someone who looks at them the way Matt looks at Ed Sheeran. The most-liked comment of all keeps a straight face. That wedding singer is really good, it says, and maybe someday he will be famous.
