I am so thrilled to say I just granted my first wish for Wish Upon a Wedding. I was contacted by the Chicago Chapter about five weeks ago and asked to be the wedding planner for their third wedding wish. This was an extra special wedding for an amazing couple. I had the pleasure of getting to know Nick and Bahar on a very personal level. They have touched my heart and my life in so many wonderful ways.
I am so honored to be one of the many wish grantors that came together to make Nick and Bahar’s wedding the most amazing day ever. To learn more about all of the wish grantors be sure to check out the Wish Upon a Wedding Blog. We will be posting pictures and details from the big day soon so stay posted!
Wish Upon a Wedding provides weddings & vow renewals for couples facing terminal illness and other serious life-altering circumstances. By giving the gifts of dream weddings & vow renewals, they are able to grant some of the most intimate and heartfelt wishes of these people’s lives, and help them share this important day with close family members. The foundation was created to celebrate the courage, determination and spirit of these couples by granting their dream wedding wishes. Their hope is that chosen recipients can inspire others couples facing similar situations to find hope and strength.
All wedding wishes are granted at completely no charge for to the couple. This is made possible by the generosity of the wish grantors and donations. If you are moved by what Wish Upon a Wedding does for these amazing couples please consider making a donation. There are many different ways to help including making a donation in lieu of favors on your wedding day or donating your air miles. You are also invited to attend the first annual Blissful Wishes Ball on November 1st at The Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel. It will be a magical night filled with great food, fun and top notch entertainment from The Larry King Orchestra.
