This Saturday!!!  Find Your Wedding Gown for Under $400 at the Annual Goodwill Wedding Gala

Monday, March 11, 2013

This week is truly a dream week for all of you bargain-seeking brides. If you are looking for a steal on a wedding dress, join us bright and early on Saturday morning for the annual Goodwill Wedding Gala.

If you are not familiar with the Goodwill Gala, here's a quick rundown:


The Goodwill Wedding Gala is the ultimate way to save on your wedding dress. The Gala will take place from 6am to 10am on March 16 at the Goodwill Store in Rivergate located at 2101 Gallatin Pike North in Madison, Tennessee.

The dresses:
You will find bridal gowns, bridesmaid dresses, cocktail dresses, mother of the bride/groom dresses, flower girl dresses, and more from Alfred Angelo, Allure, Eden Bridals, Mary’s, Watters Brides, etc. Most of the gowns are sample dresses donated from local bridal stores and have never been worn.  No wedding gown will be priced over $400!! The sale will also include accessories such as veils, jewelry, shoes and more!

The organization:
Proceeds from the sale of these items will benefit the mission of Goodwill, which is to provide employment and training opportunities for people with disabilities and others who have trouble finding and keeping jobs.

The inside scoop:

  • Be sure to arrive early - last year there were 350+ brides in line at 6am to get their dream gown for less!
  • Wedding cake from Crumb de la Crumb will be served. 
  • Attendees will be treated to refreshments provided by C&K Catering.
  • Rhonda Patton Weddings will provide inspirational wedding designs. 
  • Pre-owned wedding gowns have been cleaned by Nicholson Cleaners.
  • Brides can register to win several prizes from restaurant gift cards to local hotel stays.
