Sarasota Brides and Formalwear gave away 12 dresses at Brides Across America Monday, July 15, a nationwide charity that provided free wedding gowns to military brides. To qualify, brides must be engaged and on active duty in the military or have a fiance who is on active duty in the military. The bride or their fiance had to have been deployed in the last five years to Iraq, Afghanistan, Bahrain, Libya, Qatar, Kuwait, Korea or Japan. This was the second year Sarasota Brides and Formalwear put on the event and they will do so again next year.
