About Thelma

Our Founder

Thelma is the heart and soul behind Wedding Traditions. A cancer survivor with an indomitable spirit, Thelma has transformed her personal challenges into opportunities to give back to the community.

Her journey through cancer treatment gave her a profound appreciation for life's meaningful traditions and celebrations. This experience inspired her to create Wedding Traditions, a resource dedicated to preserving and sharing wedding customs from around the world.

Community Leader

As a church ambassador, Thelma actively works to build bridges between different community groups. Her faith has been a guiding light through difficult times and continues to inspire her work in bringing people together through shared cultural experiences.

Animal Advocate

When she's not researching wedding traditions or working with her church, Thelma runs a local animal shelter that has rescued and rehomed hundreds of animals over the years. Her commitment to animal welfare reflects her belief in compassion for all living beings.

The shelter operates entirely on donations and volunteer support, providing a safe haven for abandoned and mistreated animals until they find their forever homes.

Our Mission

Through Wedding Traditions, Thelma aims to celebrate cultural diversity while supporting her animal shelter work. Every visit to our website contributes to this dual mission of cultural appreciation and animal welfare.
