Jilted bride turns it around

Kudos to the woman who, upon learning that her fiancee was cheating on her, nixed the wedding and turned the would-be reception into a charity benefit. 

Jilted bride turns wedding into charity
I'm really just trying to turn it around and make something positive out of it," said Kyle Paxman.

Paxman, 29, had planned to celebrate her nuptials at the Basin Harbor Club on Lake Champlain on Saturday. When she found out about her fiance, she called off the 180-guest wedding and the four-year relationship.

She and her mother canceled the band, photographer and florist, but learned they would not be reimbursed for the reception and block of rooms they had reserved. So they turned the reception into a benefit for the Vermont Children's Aid Society and CARE USA, an international relief organization that aims to combat poverty by empowering women.

With resiliency like that, Kyle's going to do just fine.
