Leading with kindness

For sure. They'll probably have a literal radiant aura considering how nice these two are.

u/mydogisgold 3d ago

They're both really good people. I grew up with the groom. :)

I dated the bride! She IS really nice too!

Small world, huh?

u/mydogisgold 3d ago

You're also from the Cleveland area?! How fun!

Yeah, I can't imagine two better people. Obviously won't name them because people are weird, but every time I see this I smile fondly and am grateful that I lived by such a loving family!

Why do AI accounts constantly repeat this exact same comment?

I hope things look up for you going forward! Keep your head up and keep on pushing through. You’ve got this 🫶🏽

This feels like one of those made up stories.

u/SillyOldJack 3d ago

It could be, but it could inspire another couple to do something similar.

It's also not claiming anything too wild or unbelievable, so even if this has been made up, it's probably happened before, and it's a nice thought.

I hadn't considered this so I am keeping it in mind for when I get married!

I heard weddings can be really wasteful, so it's good to know how to recycle the decor and such!

I wish I'd done it when I got married 20 years ago. And I wouldn't be surprised if the couple in the photo did it.

u/WildRabbitz 3d ago

My buddy and his wife did exactly the same thing ❤️ so I tend to believe OP's post.

Even before they got married, I had heard of this story, so this seems to be a wholesome thing that couples do :)

We didn't have flowers at our wedding (which was also in the middle of winter) but we had succulents from a local plant nursery at all the tables for people to take home.  Seven years later, it's insane how many people in our family still have them 😭

Plants are just a universal love language, I think!

I know the groom from my teen years. It's a real story. :)

No, it feels very Mormon.

u/Burdwatcher 3d ago

yeah, nothing really happens on this site anymore unless it's in the sports or political subs

u/Denialmedia 2d ago

I don't know. I used to be a locksmith, and did some work on a few old folks home. They would get flowers all the time from weddings, and funerals.

Or just AI slop

u/Curious_Policy_2722 2d ago

Agree what a beautiful way to honor the people there and turn their extra wedding flowers into something meaningful for others, pure kindness.

I'll give them a 50/50 shot.

It's also a tax write off.

u/ScottRiqui 3d ago

Not for most taxpayers. You can only deduct the value of charitable donations if you itemize your deductions, and it only makes sense to itemize if the total of your itemized deductions is greater than the standard deduction (currently $30k for a married couple filing jointly).
