The 6-year-old cancer survivor stole the show when she delivered a touching speech to the gathered family and friends, which included plenty of fellow National Football League players and celebs like Holly Robinson Peete.

Leah Still has already shown she can beat cancer – and now we know she can dominate the dance floor, too. “Now that [the wedding] is officially here, it’s the beginning of our future and the end to a hard time”, Still said PEOPLE. “When the doctors gave her a 50/50 chance of surviving, we were not sure that we were ever going to get to that point where I was able to watch her walk down the aisle”. “We’ll make it through whatever is thrown our way”, Devon Still told E!

After that, Still (now with the Texans) and Joyce picked up the wedding planning where it left off when Leah started her fight.

Leah is the flower girl, and the couple reportedly waited two years to get married – until Leah was healthy. “But my dad had to practice a lot longer”. Fast-forward to May 13, 2016 and she’s happily dancing at her dad’s wedding! Aw!
