Altar Ego: Durham Bridal Fashion Show

Altar Ego, the Triangle’s hottest fashion show of the year brought to us by Tre Bella Inc, is quickly-approaching! This is going to be an evening of entertainment at Durham’s most high-end wedding venue, the Washington Duke Inn. Guests will enjoy hors d’oeuvres, cocktails and live music while gazing upon various event-themed table designs. The event will culminate with a fashion show, highlighting bridal, bridesmaid and menswear fashions, and also showing local boutique clothing that can be used for your rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, or honeymoon! Tickets are $35 for the full evening and all drinks, food and fashion are included. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to a local charity, Girls on the Run, so it is a good cause, too!

Here are some photos from the last Altar Ego Event. To buy tickets for this year’s event on Sat, March 31, click HERE!

As December is the month that brings the most engagements, My Carolina Today asked us to come on the show to give some tips to the newly-engaged. There is much to discuss on where to begin with the sometimes overwhelming job of planning that special day!
