Give in Celebration is a unique way to celebrate your big day while supporting Cancer Research UK’s life-saving work. It’s a great way to remember someone who can’t be there or celebrate someone who can.
You can support Cancer Research UK in two ways on your wedding day with our alternative wedding list or wedding favours.
With a Give in Celebration page, you can request donations instead of gifts to raise funds for Cancer Research UK’s life-saving work. It’s a unique way to support the charity that can be used as well as or instead of a traditional gift list.
How it works
Personalising your Give in Celebration page is quick and simple. You can personalise your page by uploading photos and writing your own message, as well as selecting page themes to match your wedding style. Then invite guests to donate to your page and leave you a personal message.
Jane and Dave’s story
When Jane first met Dave, he’d just finished chemotherapy. “He came up to talk to me in a bar,” explains Jane. “He told me about his cancer on our first date – after that, there wasn’t really much we couldn’t talk about.”
Jane has sadly been touched by cancer before, too. “Dad died from cancer in 1996. 13 years later we were all very emotional again on my wedding day when Mum gave me away. I mentioned Dad in my speech, and led a toast to everyone who couldn’t be with us.”
“I saw an advert for Give in Celebration in a wedding magazine and I put it to Dave, who agreed it would be a good idea. We did our page together, and it was actually a really good way of telling each other’s family and friends about why it was so relevant to both sides,” says Jane.
“We had a fantastic response from our guests. Everyone thought it was a brilliant idea.”
