It was an amazing evening at the Ravenswood Event Center on Wednesday March 24, where the official Chicago Chapter of Wish Upon a Wedding was launched. The space was filled to capacity with over 200 Wedding Professionals willing to share their talents and services with upcoming Brides & Grooms hoping to make their wedding wishes come true.
Chicago Chair, Ali Phillips spoke poignantly about this amazing charity which is the only wedding wish granting organization that produces weddings & civil union ceremonies at destinations across the United States for individuals facing life-threatening illness.
The most touching (and tear filled), part of the evening was the video produced by I Do Films which documented the journey of Chicago’s first wish recipients Beth and Nick (who also attended the event), who will become husband and wife on April 18, 2010, thanks to this generous organization. The video was truly an inspiration to all and exemplifies the true meaning of unconditional love.
Wish Upon a Wedding relies on the generosity of professionals from the Wedding and Hospitality industries to provide goods and services for our Wish Recipients. By calling on our database of regional Wish Granters, we are able to make wedding dreams come true. From caterers to photographers, and from DJs to cake designers, {and everything in between}, we need you!
