Melanie Cannon and Eddie Hanna lost a lot of money when their first attempt was abandoned following the death of Melanie’s grandmother.
The second postponement came when they found out the dog they had rescued together from the Halifax Humane Society was suffering serious health defects.
The couples vet said the young pup, the runt of the litter, had the worst case of liver shunt he had ever seen and was facing a lifelong need for expensive treatment and medication.
They decided that rather than give up on their dog, named Koda, they would once again forgo their wedding plans and use the money to pay for his care.
now it is third time lucky for the couple as their community rallies round to make sure their dream wedding finally happens.
Led by the Halifax Humane Society, local vendors offered to donate their goods and services to see Cannon and Hanna tie the knot on Saturday.
'It really hit home with our entire staff,' said Miguel Abi-hassan, Halifax Humane Society's executive director. 'We felt we needed to be able to do something to turn that around.'
Amber's Jewel Catering is throwing the after party at its Ormond Beach reception facility for the soon-to-be Mr and Mrs Hanna and their 75 guests.
Flowers, photography and music are among the things being taken care of by local businesses and Cannon said she feels blessed to have found happiness at the end of tragedy.
'It's amazing that you go through life and have these experiences and obstacles and people reward you for doing the right thing,' she said.
