[Originally at 5-year-old girl with autism mistakes bride for Cinderella, has magical moment with kind stranger by CAITLIN O’KANE]
A 5-year-old girl with autism saw a bride taking wedding photos in New York’s Akron Falls Park last week and mistook her for Cinderella.
Because she has autism, it’s often difficult for Layla Lester to interact with strangers. But Cinderella is no stranger. Layla loves Disney, so when she saw a “Disney princess” at the park, she was thrilled.
She ran up to Olivia Spark, who was posing with her groom — or rather, Prince Charming. Spark took a break from taking wedding photos to chat with the little girl, who was excited to be meeting “Cinderella.”
“When she sees a princess, she’s going to love them because she loves princesses,” Layla’s mom told CBS Buffalo affiliate WIVB.
“I was flattered,” Spark said. “I was in tears that she thought I was a princess, and it just made my day absolutely more amazing than what it already was.”
After wedding photographer, Nicole Wickins, snapped some photos, Spark had to leave for her reception. “Bye! Have fun at the ball,” Layla told the bride when they parted ways.

That definitely made that little girl’s week. AND the bride gets some very cool pictures of legitimately being mistaken for a fairy tale princess. I would say that was a successful wedding photo shoot.
