Bride of the Year Charity Event 2013...

Every year we support a wonderful charity event,  a great opportunity for brides to wear their wedding dresses again while raising money for Surf Lifesaving and the St Johns Ambulance.

The idea is that the brides enter the event and raise money by selling tickets to family and friends, and an auction is held on the night from goods donated by sponsors and by family and friends. This together with the bridesmaids section and the grooms getting on stage, makes for a wonderful and fun night.

This year 18 gorgeous girls entered, they were not only gorgeous, but were supportive and friendly towards each other. The judges had a huge job to pick the winners, we did not envy them their job. The winner received not only sponsors prizes, but also got a trip for her and her husband via a local travel agent.



The event is organised by these two lovely ladies, Nicky Taylor and Heather Walden from Designer Flowers here in Pukekohe. They spend months organising and encouraging the girls to participate, giving up hours of their own time to make sure that it is a success.
