Bridal Event at Filene's Basement

East Coast brides might want to check out events at the Washington, DC Filene's Basement on Friday, August 8, or the Boston Store on Friday, August 20. I've never been, but they're supposed to have thousands of great name-brand and designer dresses, originally priced between $800-$8000, now only $249 and $499. The sale starts at 8 am, but you'll either want to arrive well before then to be first in line, or later in the day when some of the chaos has died down.
