One of the most important details of a wedding is the bridal gown. With so many memories attached to it, we can only imagine how sentimental a bride can get after the ceremony. These days, some businesses even specialize in bridal gown preservation where one can house her dress in an acid-free box. We just know how much value\u00a0a lot of brides give the most important dress of their lives.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This is why we were so amazed at how TV host-model-teacher-lifestyle blogger<\/b> Patty Laurel <\/b>recently\u00a0made a big decision to auction off her designer gown (+ bridal makeup services, on-the-day wedding coordination, and cake pop giveaways!)<\/span><\/b>\u00a0in an effort to help the typhoon victims<\/b> in her mom’s hometown, Davao Oriental<\/b>. What makes Patty’s gown even more special is that it was a gift from her mom. This entry is our simple way of helping spread the word and look for more bidders.<\/div>\n

It’s touching to know Patty didn’t set a starting price and simply invited brides-to-be to bid for the gown based on their budgets. Just to give possible bidders an idea, the gown (Two by Rosa Clara LENA from the 2012 Spring Bridal Collection<\/b>)
\nis currently priced at a little more than<\/b>\u00a0Php 100,000<\/span><\/b> at the Rosa Clara branch in Greenbelt Residences. We do hope the gown will end up auctioned off at a good price. After all, 100% of the proceeds will go to the less fortunate. One rarely gets the chance to buy designer and contribute to charity at the same time.:) Not only that, the winning bidder will also get the following\u00a0additional values<\/span><\/b>:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
