Canceled wedding turns into meal for homeless


ANCHOR: WE'RE BACK WITH A LIVE
LOOK AT THE SATE CAPITOL TONIGHT
FROM OUR SKY CAMERA ATOP THE
CITIZEN HOTEL.
THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE VIEW
FOR A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING TODAY.
KATHY: BUT AFTER THE GROOM GOT
COLD FEET, THE WOULD-BE BRIDE'S
FAMILY WAS LEFT WITH A VENUE,
BUT NO WEDDING.
KCRA THREE'S TOM MILLER SHOWS US
HOW A HEARTBREAKING SITUATION
TURNED INTO A NIGHT THEY'LL
NEVER FORGET.
TOM: THE TABLES ARE SET, FOOD
HOT OUT THE OVEN, AND ONE BY ONE
THE GUESTS ARRIVE.
THESE AREN'T THE MEN WOMEN AND
CHILDREN THE DUANE FAMILY
ORIGINALLY PLANNED TO HOST, BUT
THEY'RE HAPPY TO DO IT
NONETHELESS.
WHEN I FOUND OUT ON MONDAY
THAT THE WEDDING WOULD NOT BE
TAKING PLACE, IT JUST SEEMED
LIKE, OF COURSE THIS WOULD BE
SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD DO TO
GIVE BACK.
TOM: EARLIER IN THE WEEK THE
WOULD-BE GROOM GOT COLD FEET AND
CALLED OFF THE WEDDING.
RATHER THAN CANCEL THE 35,000
DOLLAR OUTING, THE BRIDE'S
FAMILY INVITED THE CITY'S
HOMELESS FOR A ONCE IN A
LIFETIME MEAL AT ONE OF
SACRAMENTO'S FINEST HOTELS.
I THINK IT IS VERY GENEROUS.
TOM: THEY CAME WITH THEIR
FAMILIES, GIVING THEIR KIDS A
RARE NIGHT OUT.
WHEN YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A
HARD TIME, TO DO SOMETHING
DIFFERENT, IT WAS A BLESSING.
IT IS SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU
WOULD FIND THAT THE FOUR TELL --
FOUR STAR RESTAURANT AT THE
HOTEL.
PLENTY TO GO AROUND.
120 PEOPLE WERE INVITED BEFORE
IT GOT CANCELED.
STOMACHS AND SMILES ARE
EVERYWHERE.
THE NUMBER STILL PAINFUL.
THEIR 27-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER CHOSE
TO STAY HOME.
I FEEL A LOT OF HEARTACHE AND
HEARTBREAK FOR HER, BUT I WILL
TAKE AWAY SOMETHING GOOD FROM
THIS, I WILL.
TOM: TURNING A NIGHT THAT WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT THEIR
FAMILY, INTO ONE THAT TAKES CARE
OF OTHERS.
IN SACRAMENTO, TOM MILLER, KCRA
THREE NEWS.
ANCHOR: WHAT A GREAT WAY TO TURN
A BAD SITUATION INTO A POSITIVE
SITUATION.
AT LEAST NOW FAMILIES HAVE THE
CHANCE TO ENJOY IT.
PART OF THE 35,000 DOLLAR
WEDDING PRICE TAG INCLUDES A
NONREFUNDABLE HONEYMOON AS WELL
SO TOMORROW MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
