(CNN) A bride-to-be, a 32-year-old Londoner and an Australian nurse are among the victims of Saturday night's terror attack in London.
Three men rammed a van into pedestrians on London Bridge and stabbed people at nearby businesses, killing at least eight.
Many of those killed and injured were targeted as they enjoyed a night out in Borough Market, a popular part of London packed with food stalls, high-end restaurants and bars.
A journalist, a French doctor and an off-duty police officer are among the 48 wounded.
CHRISSY ARCHIBALD, 30
Chrissy Archibald, described as beautiful and loving, was with her fiancé, Tyler Ferguson, on London Bridge when the van hit her.
They "tried everything but were unable to save her," Tyler's brother Mark Ferguson said in a Facebook post.
Local news media report that the 30-year-old died in her fiancé's arms.
"I am heartbroken that a Canadian is among those killed," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a statement. "Canadians stand united with the British people."
Archibald's immediate family said in a statement she had worked in a homeless shelter until she moved to Europe to be with her husband-to-be.
"She would have no understanding of the callous cruelty that caused her death," the Archibald family said, requesting that people honor Archibald by working to make their communities better.
"Volunteer your time and labor or donate to a homeless shelter. Tell them Chrissy sent you," the statement said.
SEBASTIEN BELANGER, 36
Sebastien Belanger, from France's Loire Valley, was identified as being among the dead Wednesday.
He had been missing since Saturday after getting "lost in the panic," according to friend Robin Colleau, who said they were dining at a restaurant near London Bridge when the attack unfolded.

KIRSTY BODEN, 28
Kirsty Boden, an Australian nurse who worked at Guy's and St Thomas' hospital in London, was killed while trying to help the injured on London Bridge.

"Helping people was what she loved to do in her job as a nurse and in her daily life," the statement said.

We are so proud of Kirsty's brave actions which demonstrate how selfless, caring and heroic she was, not only on that night, but throughout all of her life. Kirsty -- we love you and we will miss you dearly," the family wrote.
In a statement Tuesday from the NHS Foundation Trust, Dame Eileen Sills, chief nurse at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital said Boden was highly thought of at work.

The Spanish government expressed its condolences to his family and applauded Echeverria's bravery during the attack.
"Ignacio Echeverria's actions during the attacks are an example of solidarity," it said in a statement. "His courage to defend a helpless person makes us remember the need to stay together in the fight against terrorism, against the (ones) who make violence and terror their only way of expression.

In a tearful address, McMullan delivered a strong message of defiance: "While our pain will never diminish it is important for us to all carry on with our lives in direct opposition to those who would try to destroy us."
"Remember that hatred is the refuge of small-minded individuals and will only breed more," she said. "This is not a course we will follow despite our loss."
"From his friends that were with him that night, they want everyone to know what a generous and caring friend he was. Words will never be able to match his essence, there will only ever be one James."
