Find the perfect dress—and make a difference in the life of someone who needs it. This weekend, the Making Memories Cancer Foundation is holding a Brides Against Breast Cancer tour of gowns at the Milestones Bridal Expo. The dresses are donated by designers, retailers, manufacturers, and past brides, then sold at deeply discounted prices. Although some are valued in the thousands of dollars, the prices at the tour top out at around $800. The proceeds from the sale are donated to the Making Memories foundation, which grants final wishes to women with terminal breast cancer. And if already have a dress, the Milestones Bridal Expo could have something for you: There’ll be food, raffles, fashion shows, and lots of prizes. VIP night ($25 for brides, $15 for guests), Friday from 7 to 10, lets you have the first crack at the dress selection. Saturday ($7) 11 to 5, Sunday (free) 10 to 5. Get tickets here. Crowne Plaza Hotel (8777 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring).
