Ida’s Bridal – Model Mothers

Ida’s Bridal and Tuxedo held its first ever Mother’s Fashion Show in March.  Mom’s modeled their glamourous gowns they had purchased at Ida’s and had worn at various galas, weddings and events.  More than 85 women enjoyed cake, champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries as they watched the ladies walk the specially-built runway lined with fresh flowers.  Ida created a truly beautiful event.
