Hey everyone,

It's with a lot of humility that i'm writing this to you. As many of you know, my parents were tragically affected by the pandemic in Brazil resulting in their restaurant being shutdown for over a year. Since the start of wedding planning, we had hope and expectations that things would essentially get better by this summer and my parents would be able to come for my wedding. Unfortunately with the increase of Covid cases in Brazil things only got worse for my parents, to the point that they cannot afford to make a trip to the US. The feeling of not having my own parents at my wedding is devastating and heartbreaking, i could not accept this reality but choose to seek help. So here am i doing something very uncomfortable for me that is to ask for help, all i want is for them to witness the biggest day of my life and to bless me in this new journey. If you feel in your heart to contribute to make this happen please do, i will be forever thankful and it's going to make my wedding day very very special. Because of current travel restrictions, my parents will have to quarantine in Mexico for 15 days before they can enter the US, so I've made this total budget including airfare tickets + quarantine hotel for the 3 of them (Mom, Stepdad & Little sister). Since they are required to quarantine for 15 days, they would have to leave very soon in two weeks so that they can make it in time for the wedding. Anything you give will be highly appreciated and 100% of collected funds will go straight to their travel booking. Thank you in advance for considering giving, this is going to bless and mark our family forever.

Much love,

André.
