This Bride Had the Most Amazing Reaction When Her Groom Called Off the Wedding

From Cosmopolitan

When a Sacramento, California, bride's wedding was called off by her groom-to-be at the last minute, her family made the most of an incredibly crap situation.

KCRA reports that last Monday, Kari Duane got a call from her daughter Quinn that Quinn's would-be husband got cold feet and canceled the wedding. After consoling her daughter, Kari immediately sprung into action. You see, much of the $35,000 wedding had already been paid for and it was too late to cancel. Two things they had to use or lose? The wedding location and food.

So, Kari decided to welcome homeless people to their gorgeous venue at Sacramento's Citizen Hotel to enjoy the four-star feast originally meant for wedding attendees. The new guests were served heaping plates of appetizers, salad, cauliflower, gnocchi, salmon, and tri-tip steak.

"When you're going through a hard time and a struggle for you to get out to do something different and with your family, it was really a blessing," said Rashad Abdullah, a man who came with his wife and five children.

The bride-to-be found it too painful to attend (understandable), but Kari was happy that she could make something positive out of what could be an altogether awful situation.

"I feel a lot of heartache and heartbreak for her, but I will take away something good from this, I will," she said.
