    Looking for a designer wedding dress at a deep, deep discount? Look no further! Wish Upon a Wedding, a wedding nonprofit dedicated to providing weddings and vow renewals to couples facing serious illness or a life-altering health circumstance, has launched Wish Upon a Dress, an online shop for discounted designer wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, cocktail attire, and accessories, including earrings, veils, capes and belts.


    Purchasing through Wish Upon a Dress not only benefits you with a designer look for less for your wedding, 100% of the proceeds go back to Wish Upon a Wedding.

    Wish Upon a Wedding Couple

    What Does Wish Upon A Wedding Do?

    Have you heard of Wish Upon a Wedding before? This amazing charity organization grants weddings and vow renewals to couples facing serious illness or life-altering health circumstances. A couple facing hardship can apply to have their wedding wish granted. Wish Upon a Wedding works together with the couple to find vendors in their area to plan their entire wedding from start to finish. 

    Wish Upon a Wedding will find a wedding planner, photographer, venue, cake designer, caterer, wedding dresses and every other wedding service the couple needs to throw them an amazing wedding in their area. I've been involved with Wish Upon a Wedding for years, making custom wedding garters for all of their brides so that they have a special wedding keepsake heirloom from their wedding day. 

    How Does It Work?

    For many years, Wish Upon a Wedding has been accepting wedding dress, bridesmaid dress, accessory and veil donations from wedding dress designers and bridal dress shops. They are able to provide these dresses free of charge to the couples who are granted wish wedding ceremonies.

    Now, through their new program, Wish Upon a Dress, they've decided to offer this excellent opportunity for drastically reduced prices on wedding dresses and accessories to the general public by selling Wish Upon a Dress Boxes with 100% of profits going back to Wish Upon a Wedding.

    1 - Choose A Style

    Go to the Wish Upon a Dress website and choose your bridal style. You can choose from bridesmaid dresses, party dresses, sashes, earrings, bridal veils, wedding capes, and wedding gowns.

    While you cannot select an exact item, you do choose from a variety of style options, including sequin, colors, sparkle, boho, ballgowns, lace and more. They even have bridal skirts and separates! How fun!? It's still a surprise for you what items you will receive, but since you select the style you know it will match your style. And their incredible prices (Think $25 for a bridal dress sparkle belt!) all for a good cause, we think that's a gamble worth taking!

    2 - Select Your Size

    You'll be able to choose your styles and sizes. Boxes include designer items so styles, sizes and customizations may vary. After you receive your items, you'll want to take your dress to a wedding seamstress to make it a perfect fit for you, just like any other wedding dress you'd purchase.

    3 - Enjoy Your Items

    Wish Upon a Dress boxes include 1 to 5 items in a box. Your box will arrive within 7 to 10 business days.

    *********

    Now, for the fun part!  Let's dive into some of our favorite finds from Wish Upon A Dress. Take a look at some examples of the amazing designer bridal gowns and wedding accessories included in their discount boxes. 

    Wedding Gowns

    Choose from styles like boho wedding dresses, lace wedding gowns, and ballgown wedding dresses. This is a unique opportunity to get designer wedding dresses at discounted prices. Select your style and choose your size - then your dress(es) will be handpicked and packed for you - and your wedding dress box will arrive straight to your door! No need to visit a bridal salon for your wedding dress try on.
