Chelsey Mahlke thought she had agreed with her new husband Darin on the song for their first dance. But he switched things up without telling her and…… it was an amazing heartwarming moment! Darin found a 70-year-old long lost recording of her grandmother, Janiece Bellanger singing the 1947 Judy Garland song “Somewhere Over The Rainbow”.

Janiece, who was Chelsey’s best friend, sadly passed away back in 2005, at 71. Had five children and four grandchildren, and recorded the cover from her bedroom when she was 14-years-old.
Chelsey said ‘We had our first dance planned for later on but when we walked in, the wedding planner handed Darin the microphone.” also adding ‘It was a complete shock,’
