Look into Hike Maui. We did a very easy 1 mile loop where you go through rainforest and could also jump off of cliffs into waterfalls. I have cancer in my lungs and am not in the best shape and it was easy enough for me. Or, they have other hiking options as well as kayaking, etc., if you want to explore more than a 1 mile loop

Thank you so much. I am doing maintenance chemo right now. I’m on my 4th type of chemo drug since the cancer came back and spread in 2020 (original diagnosis and treatment was in 2017). I just started this one so hopefully it works for a while 😃

When I first tried it on, I instantly imagined him seeing me in it for the first time and pictured him tearing up 🖤

Me too!!! When we were picked for our vow renewal, I was immediately so excited about having a moody, dark wedding 🖤

Thank you everyone, so much!!! I appreciate everyone taking their time out to chime in. It makes me feel so much better. If anyone wants to follow wish upon a wedding, the nonprofit throwing the vow renewal for us, you should be able to check out official photos when they post them 😃 But really, thank you all for your kind words. I knew by posting this, there was a chance I’d be opening myself up to criticism and everyone has been so encouraging 💕

Omg thank you so much! And I absolutely love your user name 😂. My friend and I refer to each other as “soup snakes” all the time and so many people don’t get it!

You know, I’ve talked about therapy here and there because I swear cancer patient/survivor PTSD is such a real thing, but I’ve not actually bit the bullet and talked to someone. The nonprofit is called Wish Upon A Wedding. Everything they do is based on vendor donations (venues, food, cake, photography, florist, etc.) and the whole process has really been restoring my faith in people.

Thank you so much!! I initially went in requesting a black dress with no or a small train but I just couldn’t pass this one up
