Wish Upon a Wedding is a nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization that provides weddings and vow renewals to couples facing terminal illness or other serious life-altering circumstances, regardless of sexual orientation. Often, couples facing such situations do not have the energy, time, money, or resources needed to plan their wedding. Wish Upon A Wedding organization takes care of all the details, offering couples a chance to relax and enjoy a very special day while surrounded by the love of their closest family and friends.

By celebrating the courage & spirit of these couples, they help create lasting memories that will be cherished for years to come. It is their wish to instill a sense of hope and strength in other couples who may be facing similar situations. Wish Upon A Wedding officially launched in January of 2010, Wish Upon a Wedding currently has over a dozen chapters to serve Wish Applicants.

Below is two of the 17 launched chapters with 4 more chapters in the works to be launched.

::UrDreamPlanner Grant::

 The word "Love", has a strong meaning in my heart. Maybe it's experiencing it first hand what it feels like to be loved and in love or maybe it's the feeling I get when I see other couples having their first dance gazing into each other's eyes with love! I truly believe it is combination of both that makes me love, LOVE!

As the owner of Beautiful Beyond Dreams, LLC I gave myself the mission from the start to create dream weddings for couples who truly cannot afford it. The new pricing of BBD makes it hard for those couples with a smaller budget to want to invest. However, I didn't want to exclude these couples out totally!

The UrDreamPlanner Grant is something that I've just started and right now is on a smaller scale, but the vision for this is HUGE! The UrDreamPlanner Grant is named after my twitter name @UrDreamPlanner. The wish granting will start this year beginning this summer for one in love couple!!

Below is all the information you need to know.
