Wedding gown sale (and donations): Brides Against Breast Cancer

I just learned about a wedding gown sale that also supports a good cause: Brides Against Breast Cancer –part of Making Memories.  If anyone has heard about this before, let us know about your experience!

Sale

This organization conducts a nation-wide tour where they sell donated gowns to raise money for their cause.  Gowns are priced from $99 to $799 (except couture gowns could be higher).  Half the gowns are new gowns donated by designers and the other half are donated by former brides.

Donations

Now, if the wedding is over and you just don’t know what to do with your gown, you can get a tax deduction if you donate it to this cause. In particular, they are looking for gowns created no more than two years old, or four years old if couture. You mail your gown along with a form to the organization. It seems pretty simple.
