[Originally at Bride Runs Off In Middle Of Wedding Day For Sweetest Reason by SARAH V SCHWEIG]
A bride running away in the middle of her wedding day could be interpreted as a really bad sign.
But what got Carla Reilly Moore sprinting in August 2015 was far from cold feet.
By the time her wedding day had arrived, Moore was more than ready to take her vows to her future husband. Indeed, Moore had already been through quite a lot that year, 2015 — good and bad.
Moore had dreamed of starting a sanctuary for farm animals and she finally opened the doors of Happy Tails Farm Sanctuary in Kingston, Ontario, the year before.
“By 2015 the word had got out and our farm sanctuary really started to fill up with very deserving residents!” Moore told The Dodo.
As Moore and her fiancé were realizing the dream of having a sanctuary, getting accustomed to caring for so many animals, and were in the middle of planning their wedding, which was to take place at the sanctuary, fate took a sudden turn.
“That same year, while driving to work, I was in a devastating car accident,” she said. “[This] caused lifelong damage to my back.”
Moore had to go through long and intensive rehabilitation. “I spent hours with the animals as it’s eased my pain and helped me along my path to recovery,” she said.
When the wedding day arrived, and Moore was much stronger, she knew that the animals would be a big part of the celebration.

I know, another story about weddings and animals. I can’t help it, I’m sorry. I honestly wish that there were more animal related wedding stories. So I’m doing my small part to make that dream a reality with these posts.
