This photo shows a smiling mother of the bride posing for a family photo with her husband on their daughter's wedding day shortly before she collapsed and died from a heart attack.
Marli Rosa Castro Conde, 69, died only hours after the wedding ceremony in Ivaipora, Brazil, took place on Saturday, 2nd August.
At the beginning of the party, she posed for pictures with her daughter Bianca, and her own husband Devanir, to mark the joyous moment.
Family members said Marli had been in high spirits throughout the day, greeting guests and celebrating with relatives.
The photo taken with her daughter and husband was one of the last images captured before she collapsed.
According to her daughter-in-law Lucimar Ribeiro, Marli fell ill suddenly without any prior symptoms.
Paramedics were called to the venue and attempted first aid at the scene, but she was pronounced dead shortly afterwards.
Lucimar said: "It's very sad that it happened at such an important time for the parents and for the bride. Marli was a wonderful person."
Marli was the mother of three children - Bianca, Marcio and Elvis - and had two grandchildren. She had been married to her husband Devanir for 51 years.
Her niece paid tribute on social media, saying: "It still hasn't sunk in, she was so beautiful, happy, and radiant. I still can't believe it."
The funeral took place at the National Chapel of Ivaipora on Sunday, 3rd August.
