UPDATED: How Philly-Area Bridal Salons Are Helping Alfred Angelo Brides
The out-of-nowhere closure of Alfred Angelo stores has left brides and bridesmaids across the nation stranded without dresses, Philadelphia-area girls included. Thankfully, our local bridal salon community is stepping up to help those in need with steep discounts, free rush shipping, an extension on the National Bridal Day Sale, and even the occasional comped dress. Read on for where to shop if you’re in need of a new dress.
