Bridesmaids Ball a Blast!

What a night! A complete success all the way around.

The 4th annual Bridesmaids Ball was this past Friday night. Nearly 200 people attended. The gowns were gorgeous, the ladies stunning! The men all dashing. Ted Koppy cleaned up well and my gown (thanks to all who voted) was a hit!

Directors Peg Pasani in the red and Susan DeLeon in the pink from The Umbrella domestic violence program and the Rape Crisis Center of Milford were thrilled with the turnout.

The night was full of fun ...lots of dancing, eating and a silent auction. And most memorable "Marsha" who broke her silence and talked about being a victim of rape. She showed such courage and strength. Thanks to her powerful message everyone in the room walked away more educated about domestic violence and its fall out.

We all walked away as advocates of an issue that should not be ignored.

Bravo Marsha!!!

Everyone looks so nice,I think if I went,I would wear a three piece with a bow tie like Ted,because I am built like John Saville from DRC radio,and would look funny in a gown.~Peace Glenna~

Jodi and Ted, you two look great!! It is such an important cause. I was date raped in college. It was so difficult to deal with because nobody talked about that in the 80s. I'm glad that more is being done to combat and help heal the victims of sexual and domestic violence.
