Cathryn Copeland held her wedding to husband Conner Wood in a hospital so that her mother, who was dying of cancer, could see her married before she passed away. 

The couple had initially intended to tie the knot on November 1st, but moved the date to late October when they found out about Cathryn’s mom’s condition. She had been battling the disease for 11 years and had very little chances of survival according to doctors.

Cathryn’s mom decided that her last wish would be to see her daughter married properly and to be present at the wedding. To achieve this, Cathryn and Conner decided to hold the wedding in a garden adjoining her mother’s hospital. Her mother was dressed and present to see her daughter off at the small 75 member wedding ceremony.

Two weeks after the wedding, Cathryn’s mother passed away having lost the final battle to cancer.
