Lucia Baratta and her groom John Sessions traveled from Seattle, Wash. to Orkney in Northern Scotland a day before their wedding, only to find out that their luggage containing the wedding gown and everything they need for the wedding had been lost en route, Fox News reported.
When the owners of the Kirkwall Hotel learned about their dilemma, they posted a Facebook plea for urgent help.
A Request for help!! We have a couple staying with us who are due to get married tomorrow afternoon - Their luggage...

People began responding to the post within ten minutes, offering various items from heels to veils and dresses. Two-and-a-half hours later, the hotel posted that the appeal had been a success, saying, "Thank you to everyone who has offered bits and brought things down. We are completely overwhelmed by the kindness of people. We are sorted. Thank you again."
Sessions also commented on the video: “I'm really grateful for the dress that fit, but I would have been absolutely honored to wear any of your gorgeous dresses. I know they tell the story of your life, and it’s a story I’ll share too. All the love you’ve provided for me will never, ever be forgotten. I hope you know how much it means to me.”
