And that’s not at all! To the winner of our big bridal sweepstakes, we’re giving away a gorgeous Marchesa gown and an all-expenses-paid trip to NYC, complete with a custom gown-fitting. (The contest kicks off 4/13.) We also convinced sought-after wedding planner Yifat Oren—who has worked with stars like Mariska Hargitay, Jason Bateman, Kevin Costner, and, most recently, Reese Witherspoon—to share some of her invaluable planning wisdom. Check back on the Gilt Blog April 12 and April 17 for her dispatches on the latest tips and trends, and log on to the Gilt Facebook page for a live Q&A with Oren the day of the sale. Gilt City will also be selling tickets to an elegant in-store event at the Vera Wang store in L.A., where guests will have the opportunity to mingle with Oren and have all their questions answered in real time.
