This was a wonderful cause! This past Friday and Saturday, March 6 & 7, The Henley Company, an Event Management & Concierge Firm, www.thehenleycompany.com, staged a charity Wedding Gown Sale at the beautiful Manchester Grand Hyatt, www.manchestergrand.hyatt.com, in downtown San Diego.

Proceeds benefited the Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation. Please visit this web site for further information: www.BridesAgainstBreastCancer.com.

Over the two days, hundreds of brides tried on gowns, tiaras and accessories as they shopped for their wedding. Gowns could be had for bargain prices ranging from $99.00 up to $699.00 with all proceeds going to charity. All participants in the show were volunteers. Various San Diego wedding industry professionals donated and displayed their services on the day, including linens, décor, floral, hair styling, gown cleaning & preservation, lingerie & undergarments, photography, jewelry, lounge furniture and DJ music.

Weddings of Distinction was proud to have three members involved in the show: host property The Manchester Grand Hyatt, www.manchestergrand.hyatt.com, lounge furniture courtesy of Plush Lounge Furniture Rental, www.loungefurniturerental.com, and Disc Jockey/Emcee and Music from Merrylin Brichmann of Artistic Productions, www.artistic-productions.com.

A beautiful bridal shopping day with a great cause!!
