Wedding donated via facebookWhile a British couple was saving for and planning their dream wedding, the groom was suddenly diagnosed with throat cancer. All their income had to be funneled toward medical expenses. They could no longer afford a beautiful wedding.

With her fiance's health quickly deteriorating, the bride-to-be reached out on Facebook and posted a video on YouTube asking for donations.
