The five runner ups will receive consolation prizes from participating EWedded sellers.

EWedded CEO and founder Maya Holihan is a military spouse and had this to say about the giveaway, “I’ve been in the wedding industry for over 20 years and when I owed bricks-and-mortar bridal shops I hosted a military bride gown giveaway with Brides Across America every year for 9 years. Though EWedded is an e-commerce business it’s still extremely important to me to support our military, first responder and healthcare workers in a multitude of ways.”
