Jordan and John Groom, both 29, recently renewed their vows in an emotional ceremony in California, organized by the nonprofit Wish Upon a Wedding. The celebration came as Jordan continues her battle with can.cer, offering a moment of joy amid hardship.

“We wanted a moment of brightness for our family and friends to remember,” Jordan shared. The event was filled with love and support, highlighting the strength of their bond.

A longtime friend said, “I know it sounds cliché, but I’ve never seen a couple that embodies love as much as they do.”

PEOPLE senior writer Johnny Dodd, who has been covering Wish Upon a Wedding since last year, attended the event and spoke with those closest to the couple. The ceremony stood as a powerful reminder of love, resilience, and the importance of cherishing life’s meaningful moments.
