Minnesota Bride Pays It Forward With Party After Cancelling Wedding

If you've just cancelled your wedding-- only a few weeks before it was supposed to happen-- you probably wouldn't feel much like throwing a party, right? But that just what this Minnesota woman did.

In fact, Jenna Yorkovich threw a party-- but it wasn't for her friends or family; it was instead for the children, family and volunteers of the Ronald McDonald House in Minneapolis!

Now THAT'S paying it forward! According to this KARE-11 story, Jenna put an end to her planned nuptials (though the story didn't say why-- which I'm sure would be a good story!) just a few weeks before the big day was supposed to go down.
