Donating your Wedding Dress

I get asked this question all the time "what do I do with my wedding dress after the wedding?" There are so many gown preservation techniques out there. If you are a bride who is not particular about preserving your dress, one really great option is to donate the dress.

Brides Against Breast Cancer™ contributes to programs for cancer patients and their families. Their outreach and educational efforts during our "Tour of Gowns" bridal shows around the country help ensure that people impacted by cancer have the resources and information they need in their battle with cancer.

You can help contribute to programs for cancer patients and their families.

At this time, the are in need of contemporary gown styles, slips and veils dating from 2009 until the present day. Each gown that arrives at their organization is carefully prepared for their upcoming “Brides Against Breast CancerTM, Nationwide Tour of Gowns” sales. The thousands of generous donations they receive from designers, manufactures, bridal shops, and individuals worldwide, enables Brides Against Breast Cancer to provide wellness and educational services to anyone affected by breast cancer.
