BOCA RATON, Fla.--()--Everyone likes to save money here and there. And for some, saving money on weddings is more than a hobby, and a little less than an obsession. Laura Gawne, Susan Bain and Roxie Radford who operate the popular money-saving website www.Cheap-Chic-Weddings.com began the annual contest nine years ago based on the popular bridal shower game.
“have a cheap wedding that looks like a million bucks”
The Cheap Chic Weddings 2013 Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest sponsored by Charmin, launches today March 20, 2013 for the ninth year in a row. Contestants have until May 10, 2013 to submit their priceless paper masterpieces, at which point a panel of judges will narrow the list down to the top 10 and then open the judging to the public through online voting. The top three dress designs will be showcased at a live event at RK Bridal in New York City on June 6, 2013. The event will feature celebrity judge Kate Pankoke, Owner and Creative Director of Elaya Vaughn Bridal and Season 11 contestant on Project Runway, who will help crown the top designer.
“Our world famous TP contest is attracting some amazing talent. We are excited to meet the finalists in New York City!” said Laura Gawne of Cheap Chic Weddings.
The Grand Prize winner will receive $2000, the second place winner will receive $1000 and the third place winner will receive $500.
