Bride and Glory

Alfred Angelo and Operation Homefront join forces to help servicewomen to swap their fatigues for a gown

By CTW Features

It's never easy planning a wedding - even more so if you or your fiancé is stationed in the military or on a tour of duty. Recognizing this, Alfred Angelo is trying to make it a little easier for military brides.

The Fort Washington, Pa., dressmaker offers military brides a 15-percent discount on gowns purchased at Alfred Angelo-owned bridal stores; a $25 discount on bridesmaid dresses also is available if purchased at the same time as the bridal gown. All that's needed is a valid military ID - the bride's or her fiancé's.

Alfred Angelo also has donated gowns to military brides in need through troop-support group Operation Homefront.

Alfred Angelo operates bridal stores in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas and Washington.
