Kristina Hamilton, 42, who has Diffuse Systemic Scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease, recently had her dream wedding with fiancé Chris Swanson, 43.

Wish Upon a Wedding, a nonprofit that grants weddings to couples facing terminal illness, selected Kristina for their program. Local vendors donated more than $50,000 worth of services for their special day at Trinity Oaks of Matthew’s Hope in Cocoa, FL.

Nearly 50 guests attended the celebration, which featured catering, music, photography, and transportation – all donated by generous vendors.

The newlyweds, who have a combined seven children, are now focusing on building their blended family. Kristina continues to battle her incurable condition while raising awareness through her blog “Still Standing: Kristina’s Journey”.
