Lot's of new dresses....

Many thanks to the many brides from across the US that have reached out about donating their dresses. I have about 5 enroute from all over the country. I am thrilled at the constant interest in this 'little endeavour' and appreciate all those who contact us...whether to donate or to buy.

I also want to thank Diane from The Perfect Wedding Guide for promoting us and supporting us!!! If we can get enough donations, we have been ask to be the "headliner" at the Perfect Wedding Guides Fall show. This means we can sell our gowns there, which means we'll leave with lot's of $$$ to donate to kids and families touched by cancer. So spread the word...dig up those dresses...reach out to local bridal salons and tell them about us...help us spread the word so we can make this event and make a difference in the lives of many!!!

Seeking Dresses.....Send 'em on in!!!

We have (with pretty much no advertising at this point) been getting noticed out there!! My inbox is full with brides seeking dresses from us. That said....we are in need of donations...both from individual brides as well as from Bridal Salons that would like to support our cause. Please pass on what we do to friends, family, co-workers, strangers on the street!!! Our demand has exceeded our supply and we would like to make all our hopeful brides smile!!!

Thanks for your support!!!

Good Karma up for grabs....

I have been collecting a few dresses over the last few months and have decided it is time to offer them up for sale. I'll be posting some pictures here and will be posting on Craigslist as well (search for Charity Wedding Dress and you'll find us...)

If you are interested in learning more about our stock, email us and we can send pictures to see if we have a match in stock for you. Remember 100% of the profits go to kids with cancer so you can get a great dress at a great price for a great cause!!!!

Thanks to an amazing bride in South Florida...and Brenda...

What makes The Brides Project such an amazing project to have the privilege of being a part of is all the amazing people you get to meet, and all the wonderful people that jump in and lend a hand.

This week a lovely bride from South Florida contacted us about donating her stunning wedding dress. Being that we run operations out of Ann Arbor, Mi, this made getting that dress a challenge. In comes Brenda Remus a dear friend living in South Florida who not only offers to pick up the dress and ship it to me, but also takes the bride out for breakfast as a thank you!! WOW!!

My thanks go out to the bride for her donation of a fabulous dress...which will be posted for sale soon....and to Brenda for truly going the extra mile!!! We could not make The Brides Project work without people like either of you!!!

A sweet little package from San Fran....

I was out picking up a wonderful dress today (thanks Lisa), and came home to a package on my front step. This package contained a simply lovely dress from a bride in San Fran. What makes this package even more special is that the bride had contacted me before her wedding day to say that after her wedding she wanted to donate the dress. She was able to share her plans with her family and friends at her wedding ...we made up a little sign for her to post at her reception...and then here is the dress today. Thanks Liana for your commitment to share your dress with us (and for cleaning and shipping it to us), and for hopefully starting a trend of brides planning to donate before the big day even is upon them. Here is a sneak peak of this beauty...and we have several precious dresses all donated by amazing brides! Thanks to all the brides that have already shared their dresses with us. And to those that are about to come. :)

The Brides' Project, Toronto, Canada

This past weekend I travelled to Toronto to visit the original Brides' Project. It was truly inspiring to see how busy they were. In the short time I was there I saw several brides trying on dresses, and a few find the one of their dreams. I also saw two dresses come in for donation and one bride called her order in via phone. I am excited about all this happening as we grow here in the US. Thanks to all those who have donated dresses already, and to those that keep my inbox buzzing daily with offers to donate. Michigan has been great this past week with inquires all across the state. I'll be doing some driving to get these pre-loved dresses to join our collection, but it is worth it!

If you found this site and were hoping to buy a dress, check back in the new year. We are almost where we need to be to start selling our amazing dresses. They will all be available online (to be shipped anywhere) as well as available in Ann Arbor, for those who are local.

If you have a dress to donate, please contact us...if not, please email us and ask how you can help. We have many needs. We are 100% volunteer based so all the help and support we can get is truly appreciated.

Thanks!!
