Bridal Dresses Needed for Charity

How long is your old wedding dress going to take up space in the back of your closet? You could sell or donate it to help charity.

, an upscale consignment shop in the Roswell Square that supports local charities, is holding a dress drive for its new bridal consignment shop, called I Do & I’m Done, which is slated to open by March a few doors down.

The dress drive will be Feb. 9, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 45 Park Square, Roswell. Employees are asking people to either sell dresses on consignment, with the seller’s proceeds going to charity, or donate outright. They’re looking for gently used and clean bridal gowns, mother-of-the-bride dresses, bridesmaid dresses, flower girl dresses, accessories and jewelry. If you bring in a dress, you will receive an additional 15 percent off shopping at Vintage & Vogue.

You just fill out a form, drop the gown and go. Or stick around and try cake samples from Gluten Free Cutie. And from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Roswell author Brandy Stanfield-Nagel, who wrote "," will be signing her new book.

I Do & I’m Done will offer gently used, new and vintage wedding gowns, as well as attire for bridesmaids, mothers of the bride and other accessories.
