Gender reveal guessing game montage from @chloe.shih

A visual scoreboard tracks the votes, building suspense until the final moment where the couple cuts the cake, but the video ends on a cliffhanger showing the guests' reactions without revealing the gender, prompting the audience to share their own guess.
