It’s emotionally and financially draining specially when it’s someone batting the dreaded big C and trying to live a normal life and have a wedding of their dreams. This year through the Celebrity Wedding show, will make your dream a reality. It will also create an opportunity to showcase the various programmes that support cancer patients through the Indira Cancer Trust”. said Dr. Lanka Jayasuriya Dissanayake, Chairperson/Trustee Indira Cancer Trust.

We take this opportunity to wish Pramith and his team and all stakeholders a successful event!”. said Arosha Perera, Director Sales for Conference & Events Hilton Colombo.

Behind every cancer diagnosis is a family, and behind every statistic is a story. As someone who unfortunately lost their father to prostate cancer, I know first-hand the pain and devastation that cancer can cause. For children battling paediatric cancer, the challenges are even higher and the impacts are truly heart breaking. As the founder of the Roshan Mahanama Trust, I’m proud to support the ‘Celebrity Designer Wedding Show’ organized by Bride and Groom Wedding Magazine in aid of the Indira Cancer Trust.
