Homeless earn party

AN Indiana woman who called off her $30,000 wedding threw a party at the weekend for the homeless at the swanky event centre she had booked for the reception.

Sarah Cummins told the Indianapolis Star she called off the wedding a week ago, but declined to give a reason.

She was left with a non-refundable contract for the Ritz Charles in Carmel and a plated dinner for 170 guests.

Cummins said rather than throw away the food she decided to contact area homeless shelters.
