Three hours later, my fiancé’s car was hit by another car. THANKFULLY he’s not severely injured apart from some back and neck pain, and he was found to be completely not at fault (good news for insurance); but our car is totalled. Like, 100% unsalvageable.
So now we are emptying a significant amount of our wedding savings for a new car. We both have student debt and I have law school on the horizon, so we’ve nickel and dime-d our wedding savings, and now we have to spend it all on a down payment on a car. I was ready to tell the photographer that unless she would accept only a 25% deposit instead of her usual 50%, we would have to wait about 6 months to book her, which I feared meant that we would lose to her another wedding.
She immediately told me that she was more than happy to take 25% and that she was so happy that we were booking with her! She inquired all about my fiancé to make sure he was okay. I cried because I just felt that was so generous of her!! I’m still crying about it tbh.
I’m so floored by her kindness that I just had to share! Does anyone else want to shout out a wedding vendor who went above and beyond, or who helped you in a time of need?
