Weddings are a very big deal in Nigeria. Brides want to look their absolute best. We know that we definitely have a market for wedding gown rental. Currently we have five wedding gowns that we have purchased from second-hand stores in the U.S.
The ladies I work with had a wonderful time trying them on. They are all dreaming of the day they will wear one.
Here are a few specs on what we're looking for:
* gowns from the last 20 years that are still in good condition
* no plunging necklines or completely open backs.
* we also need veils and any other accessories.
Most of the wedding gowns we have are size 5/6. We could really use some that are larger. You can contact me by clicking on "View my Profile" and then clicking on my email. I will be in the U.S. this summer and would love to bring a lot of wedding gowns back with me.
Tell your friends. Get the word out! What a great way to get some more life out of that beautiful wedding gown. Your gown will be a blessing to many women in Nigeria as well as a blessing to this ministry.

Come visit us when you're here--your mom and I found a GREAT second hand shop with lots of selection. They also gave us gowns at 1/2 price when we told them what we were buying them for!
Plus... we just love when you visit! :)
See you soon!
Love,
Melissa
