A bridal gown shop at Potomac Mills mall will give back to those who served this Veterans Day.
Camille La Vie partnered with Brides Across America and will match brides with their dream wedding dresses at no cost. The event will begin on November 2, 2022, and continue through August 2023.
The program aims to show gratitude, joy, and appreciation to military, first responders, and COVID-19 healthcare workers in the form of wedding gowns, “a special way to thank them for their tireless work.”
The event will take place in Woodbridge Thursday, November 10, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Camille La Vie at Potomac Mills, 2700 Potomac Mills Circle #754.
Camille La Vie is a shopping destination for prom dresses, homecoming dresses, wedding dresses, and dresses for all party events. Customers can also find our bridal shop, offering wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, flower girl dresses, mother-of-the-bride dresses, and dresses for wedding guests.

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up.
