The Blissful Wishes Ball~
Dinner & Dancing for a Worthwhile Cause!
Join us for a fun and sophisticated evening that you do not want to miss. The Blissful Wishes Ball will benefit Wish Upon a Wedding, the new nonprofit organization that has touched hearts and changed lives across the nation, by providing weddings & vow renewals for couples facing terminal illness or other serious life-altering circumstances.
Our foundation was created to celebrate the courage, determination and spirit of these couples by granting their dream wedding wishes. Our hope is that chosen recipients can inspire other couples facing similar situations to find hope and strength and to not put their wedding dreams on hold.

I am looking for transportation, DJ, musician and attire vendors in the DC area who might be interested in becoming "wish granters" for Wish Upon a Wedding. Wish Upon a Wedding is a non-profit that grants free weddings to the terminally ill. Our DC chapter has a wedding coming up next month for a wonderful couple that will break your heart. Unfortunately, it is common for us to get an enormous number of event planners and photographer wish granters and none for the above services which we need.
If you are interested in becoming a wish granter you can fill out the application here http://wishuponawedding.org/chapter-locations/d-c-west-va-va-d-c/wi.... If you have any questions about the organization please feel free to let me know, I'm happy to discuss it with you. Thanks so much in advance!

Hello BridalTweet Virginia Community! I'm so excited to be a part of the group.
A question frequently asked by brides is: “I’m on a budget and just can’t afford the extra expense of a wedding planner or bridal consultant. Isn’t that an unnecessary additional expense?”
A good wedding planner or bridal consultant is not an additional cost to your overall budget. She can secure and negotiate vendor discounts that aren’t available to you, saving you money in multiple areas. A wedding planner or bridal consultant takes the stress out of the negotiation process,helps you stay on budget, plus saves you money in valuable time saved researching every little detail.
