Some brides are willing to do whatever it takes to get the dress they want.
In an epic clash of consumerism and cattiness, over 100 brides-to-be made a mad dash to find their "perfect" wedding dress at a fraction of its normal cost at Cappella Court in Richardson. Dresses that normally go anywhere from $349 to $1,000 were available for $99 apiece.
While the success of the event probably depends on which bride you talk to, it was apparently a voyeur's paradise -- women were reportedly stripping down to their underwear right in the middle of the sale due to lack of dressing room space. Sigh -- I'd like to thank my bride-to-be for having the good sense to stay far away from this kind of nonsense.

Laurie Anderson Laurie Anderson is indescribably delicious. She's hitting McFarlin tonight with her new show, Homeland, and you can bet it will contain intellectual stimulation and pure unadulterated weirdness in equal measure. An album will follow the Homeland tour in 2009. More info

I might have been inclined to pick up a wedding dress on the cheap!

Good point. Especially since you can't fit into your old dress anymore.
