LAKE MARY, FL-- (February 2, 2010) - PerfectWeddingGuide.com, the leading
wedding planning website, is
proud to announce they have joined forces with Lisa Konecny, owner of the
Winter Park based wedding and event business, E-Events, and local Orlando
businesses to form "Just 'Cause," an organization dedicated to providing
underprivileged teenage girls in Central Florida with formal wear for
school dances.
The large-scale community service project was the creation of Konecny, who
asked fellow wedding planner Susan Southerland, owner of Just Marry! and
national wedding planning expert for PerfectWeddingGuide.com, and Kristy
Chenell of Couture Consulting by Chenell to help her broaden the scope of
her endeavor.
"The Perfect Wedding Guide is all about helping brides and grooms all
across the country with the process of planning a wedding, but we
have an obligation to help the local community too," said Southerland. "We
feel this is such a great way to help local youth with our expertise, as
many wedding
ideas, trends and styles are transferrable to prom and formal looks."
Just 'Cause is now in the process of collecting gently used formal dresses
and bridesmaid dresses. Donated dresses will be altered with help from
local seamstresses, designers and stylists to fit the needs and fashion of
each girl, giving them the opportunity to attend a homecoming, prom or
social celebration with style and confidence.
Several Orlando-based hotels and businesses are acting as drop-off points
for dresses, including Perfect Wedding Guide's corporate office, The
Portofino Bay Hotel, Write In Style's studio, Solutions Bridal Salon and
Flowers of Winter Park.
Preliminary plans for an early spring event for girls to select a dress are
in the works. Just 'Cause will recruit the help of Girl Scouts of Citrus
Council as well as local schools and churches to spread the word of
availability to those in need. They hope to expand the program to
additional US cities in the near future.
