Running of the Bulls...No it's Brides!

Last night I went to Filene's Basement in search of some silver evening shoes. I was amazed of what I saw when I walked in.

Hundreds of wedding dresses with caution tape around the area and anxious brides leaning over the caution tape, planning their route this morning at 8am when the doors opened. Yes, this was the running of the brides. Have you ever seen this on the news? It's crazy! One of the cashiers told me all of the gowns are generally cleared within 6o seconds of the brides running in! They even had shirts that said "I survived." I really didn't believe that it would be worth it to actually go running for a gown...well let me tell you, IT IS!!!

Even though I am already married, I too was leaning over the caution tape oohing and ahhing at all of the beautiful gowns! My mouth dropped when I saw a Vera Wang dress for $699!! Dresses ranged in price from $249 to $699. The original price of these gowns was anywhere from $900 - $9000!

I think it would definitely be worth your while to go check it out, if you can handle all of the people. You may find the gown of your dreams for a fraction of the price. Now, that's what I call a good deal!
