While bridal gowns may be beautiful, they often come with a hefty price tag. Portland’s thrifty brides who would like to save some money on the dress for their big day will soon have a chance to do so, all while helping women in their community.
Z100 and Brides for a Cause have joined forces to bring this year’s Dress Dash. It will showcase over 500 dresses, all of which will be priced at or below $150. Other attire and accessories will also be on offer, and admission is free.
This popular fundraiser tends to attract a lot of attention, and its planners noted that some start arriving as early as 5:00 am. The sizes that will be available range from zero all the way to 24, and there will also be slips and other accessories being offered at a deep discount as well.
Guests at the sale can browse through the dresses, and a dressing room will be on site so they can make sure they are the proper fit. Both volunteers and seamstresses will be donating their time for the day, and anyone who selects a gown will be able to take it home with them. A printing services provider in the area can supply inexpensive signage for an event like this, which can help in ensuring it will meet its fundraising goals.
Portland’s Exchange Ballroom will be the place to be for brides on a budget. This chance to snag a dress at a bargain price while helping the community will be held on February 9.
