  • Status Update

    Angel and Nikita have had some amazing donations recently, both on the Givealittle page and also for the wedding itself - dresses, venue, drinks, flowers, cake and so on - and basically now the wedding is all organised and set - a huge thank you very much to everyone.

    Angel and Nikita were flown to Invercargill and fitted for their dresses, and even featured on The Project TV3 in a brief segment - did you spot them?

    They also featured in The Southlands Times - https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/96653380/terminally-ill-woman-gets-wedding-boost

    We'll post a full update after the wedding with photos and a shout out to all the vendors that have generously donated their time/services/products directly to the ladies thanks for the publicity of this page.

    Now that the wedding side of things is well underway I'd like to keep the page open another month, any new donations will be going straight to Angel's bucket list - so please do donate if you can!

  • Bucket list and a news article!

      25 August 2017

    Thank you to everyone who has donated so far, the initial goal was quickly reached and exceeded!

    Angel and Nikita wanted to pass along their gratitude to everyone through the page - they are just blown away with the generosity and it really has made them consider what other exciting options they can get done on Angel's bucket list!

    All donations received above the goal are going towards the wedding plans and to help achieve items on Angel's bucket list.

    The wedding itself is evolving and is looking like they will have a smaller private ceremony with a celebrant (rather than at the registry office), as well as getting glammed up for the day! They will be getting the marriage license early next week so we'll be sure to post an update when this happens.

    As a wonderful note Angel and Nikita have also been contacted by a news outlet, who are going to do an interview and photos for an article about Angel's bucket list, their situation and the page - we will definitely post a link to this article once it is available. How awesome is that!!
