Bridal Gown Shows

These special events showcased a stunning array of over 200 bridal gowns, flower girl dresses, mother-of-the-bride dresses, and a limited selection of bridesmaid dresses.

Bridal Gown Shows

Say yes to the dress!

Land of Lincoln Goodwill Industries’ Bridal Gown Shows were a tremendous success, drawing a wonderful turnout of brides-to-be and their guests in search of the perfect wedding attire at incredible prices.

Across five special events, shoppers browsed more than 200 new and gently used bridal gowns in a variety of styles and sizes, along with flower girl dresses, mother-of-the-bride dresses, and a limited selection of bridesmaid dresses. Brides completed their wedding-day look by exploring a wide selection of accessories, including jewelry, tiaras, veils, and more.

Additional seating helped create a comfortable and enjoyable shopping experience for attendees throughout the events.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the Bridal Gown Shows such a memorable success. Proceeds from these events supported Land of Lincoln Goodwill Industries’ mission to empower communities through education, training, and employment services. We look forward to welcoming even more future brides to upcoming Bridal Gown Shows. Stay tuned to learn about more events!

I attended the event alone, yet the Goodwill team made sure I felt special and celebrated. I visited the Springfield Bridal Gown Event where I was able to find beautiful accessories without spending a fortune!
