The Wedding That Almost Wasn't

Recently, Sarah Beavers and Charles Winder and 11 members of their wedding party were stranded at Los Angeles International Airport when ATA airlines went bankrupt and canceled their flight. They were on their way to Maui and would have had to shell out an additional $2,000 each to make it in time for their wedding.

Ellen teamed up with Travel Wizard and got them tickets -- and they made it just in time! Sarah is a nurse and Charles is a former Marine who works as a youth counselor. They are wonderful people and do great things for people in need, and we didn't hesitate to help out this deserving couple. Congratulations, Sarah and Charles! Here are some great photos of the event!

Ok. So being 7 months pregnant, this story had me in tears. Ellen you are such a wonderful person. I got married a year ago and i cant even imagine how upset i would be if that happened to me. You truly do more to people then you think you do. Every time you do something generous, your fans are watching and its truly inspiring. So thank you for making the world a better place!

Ellen,
I think this shows yet again what a wonderful, caring person that you are. Anyone's wedding is always one of the most memorable days of their lives, but you have provided this couple with an added special memory. I am so glad that you and Travel Wizard could make this happen for this special couple. You rock, Ellen, this is just one of the many reasons I am a fan. Congrats to the newlyweds!
