On December 19, 2021, Karen and Dan gathered with loved ones to renew their vows on the breathtaking grounds of Chateau Noland in San Luis Obispo, CA.

Karen and Dan first met online in 2013. They connected and began chatting. When they finally decided to meet in person, they hit it off and began dating.

The couple married in 2017 and wanted to start a family. Unfortunately, due to two bouts of childhood leukemia, Karen was unable to conceive without the help of IVF. It was while they were going through the process that she noticed a lump in her breast. While her doctor initially didn’t think much of it, a mammogram and ultrasound revealed the worst. She was diagnosed with cancer – again.

We were moved by this beautiful love story and thrilled to grant Karen and Dan’s wish for a vow renewal.

Esther and Ernesto first met by happenstance a few years ago at a local restaurant. After dating for several years, they decided to start a family together but were forced to give up on that dream when Esther was diagnosed with an aggressive form of hormone-fueled triple negative breast cancer in early 2018. 

Wish Upon a Wedding fell head over heals for this sweet couple and was thrilled to grant them their magical wedding wish.

Esther and Ernesto were living the life they loved and were making plans for a family when cancer reared it’s ugly head. We’ve loved getting to know this sweet young couple and cannot wait to grant them the wedding of their dreams in just a couple of days.
