On this Veterans Day, a local boutique offered a dream come true for some military couples about to walk down the aisle.
For four years now,
One Enchanted Evening, a bridal salon in Wexford, has been offering a giveaway to service personnel who are engaged and still on active duty.
"We need some way to thank the veterans and the only thing I could think of was this to help them out in this way," said Linda Scolieri.
It's a one day deal - Veterans Day only - the only stipulation is you have show proof you are still in the military.
"They choose their dress and they leave with the dress," said Scolieri. "No charge - no, completely free."
The special offer made Jason Nelson and Savannaha Cook very happy.
Both are in the Air National Guard stationed in Coraopolis, but they met two years ago during a four month tour in Iraq. The couple is getting married next May.
"It's fantastic, it's one less thing that we have to worry about finding the finances for and it just really helps," said Nelson, a native of Oil City.
Since the owner of One Enchanted Evening began giving away wedding dresses four years ago, more than 200 brides have taken advantage of the opportunity with some of the gowns worth as much as $5,000.
