Elegant Wedding Show January 2012

Elegant Wedding Winter Bridal Show returns to Briarwood Mall in support of cancer charities Sunday, Jan. 20 from noon-4 p.m. with celebrity host WJR Radio Personality Annette Compo.

This annual event in it’s second year supports the AVON Pink Ribbon Campaign and The Brides Project, an organization whose mission is to provide every bride with the things needed for a beautiful wedding within her budget and to support cancer charities by donating all the profits from wedding dresses that are donated to the Cancer Support Community of Greater Ann Arbor.

AVON, The Brides Project and the Cancer Community Support of Greater Ann Arbor will be on hand with information hand-outs on their organizations and how the community can get involved with fighting cancer.

Wedding fashion shows will feature fashion showcases by The Brides Project and Men's Wearhouse.

Visit with 60 wedding professionals for brides and grooms planning intimate to elaborate budget weddings. Brides can win prizes throughout the day by participating in show contests and door prize drawings. Select brides will be featured in a cake dive for a Grand Prize Wedding Package.
