This is the adorable moment a poorly baby was bridesmaid at her parents' wedding - from her hospital bed.

Karim and Louise Rezaie, from Devon, celebrated their wedding alongside their six-month-old daughter Layla who is currently having treatment in hospital due to a rare genetic condition.

Layla was born on Christmas Day but has been receiving treatment ever since, and so Bristol Children's Hospital arranged a wedding blessing to take place in the ward on 21st May.

And the photos are so adorable, with little Layla dressed in a very cute bridesmaid dress.

Karim, 38, said: "We'd always wanted to get married with Layla our daughter there.

"It was obviously a beautiful with the amount of effort they put in. We initially imagined having the chaplain come down and just do a wedding by the bedside, but the play team really put the effort in.''

Layla suffers from CHARGE syndrome, a random genetic mutation that has affected her eating, vision, heart and other complications.

Karim, a psychological therapist, said: "The whole day was made very magical.

''A huge tremendous effort was put in by the playmate workers into arranging decorations and music, getting in touch with our relatives, and getting videos recorded for people who could be there."

To make the day extra special, a number of people volunteered, from a professional photographer to a hairstylist.

"It was a really special day but obviously it was bittersweet.

"Layla was there, and it was fantastic but we were reminded how poorly she was but it was still great for it to happen.

"The doctors have said it could take weeks or months before we can take her home."
