Free Wedding Gowns for Military Brides
11/08/2008 through 11/16/2008
Heidi Janson is the founder of Brides Across America, a non-profit organization uniting military brides and bridal salons throughout the country for a common purpose to support our troops and families. After spending more than twenty five years in the bridal industry, it was time to take a stand and do her part. Military Brides don't always get their dream wedding. Some brides have to give up their wedding due to their fiancees getting deployed quickly. In other cases, brides have a civil ceremony and then await years for their fiancee to return home to finally have their wedding day. Heidi wants to make a difference and help those troops that are fighting for our country.
