Hi there blog readers! I’m hoping you can help me out with something.
I first met with Sierra back in November. We got her floral vision down on paper and started the ball rolling. Shortly after I sent her contract, Sierra was diagnosed with brain cancer. She has had surgery to remove the tumor, and is currently undergoing chemotherapy and rehabilitation.
Sierra and Mack are still planning their fall wedding. Since Sierra had just started a new nursing job 3 months before her diagnosis, she obviously did not have adequate medical coverage for the care she needs. Add planning and paying for a wedding and, well– it’s a bit overwhelming.
That’s where you come in. My cost to do Sierra’s wedding flowers as we had originally envisioned them before her cancer diagnosis would be around $1200. I am planning to donate all of the design work, delivery, etc. But I’m hoping you can help me cover the rest of the cost. If you’re interested in being a part of helping this amazing couple’s wedding dreams come true, please get in touch with me via email at paula@paisleypetals.com.
Sierra and Mack are such an inspiring couple. They are fighting this disease with everything they have. Through it all, they remain positive and it’s obvious how deeply they care for each other.
