Bride's Selfless Act Saves Stranger's Wedding Plans

Summary
- Bride Tayla Santos gave up her wedding date to refund another bride's $12,000 deposit
- Brigette Polster was shocked by Santos' generosity and wanted to thank her
- Santos and her husband Devon Mayo had a "dreamy, emotional, and beautiful" wedding

In November 2025, a bride named Brigette Polster was devastated to have her wedding canceled eight months before the big day. She had already made a hefty $12,000 venue deposit, which she was set to lose. However, Polster's luck changed when another bride, Tayla Santos, stepped in to take Polster's canceled wedding date on one condition - that Polster get all her money back.
Polster was overwhelmed with gratitude, saying, "That girl doesn't owe me anything. She doesn't owe anyone anything." Santos, a 30-year-old influencer, explained that she wanted to ensure Polster didn't lose her deposits, as she knew how much money goes into planning a wedding.
Santos and her husband Devon Mayo later had their dream wedding at the venue on October 11th, which they described as "the perfect mix of romance, vintage vibes, and just pure fun." The couple had actually already married in a private ceremony in January, and used the October event to surprise their guests.
Polster and Santos have remained in touch, and Polster looks forward to reconnecting with Santos in person someday. This heartwarming story showcases the power of kindness and generosity, even between complete strangers.
