About 85 percent of the gowns come from manufacturers, designers and retailers. The remaining dresses are from individual donors.

Has trying to find the dress of your dreams turned you into Bridezilla? Redeem yourself by getting over to Arlington as fast as your pretty little manicured toes will take you.

The Brides Against Breast Cancer gown sale started Saturday, from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., and continues today, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Westin Arlington Gateway at 801 N. Glebe Road (versus its previous location at Tyson's Corner, Sunday through Tuesday).

Prices for the gowns -- most of which are valued up to $4,000 -- range from $89 to $799, with a few designer and couture gowns priced slightly higher (but still 25% to 75% off).   

Brides for Breast Cancer accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and/or debit card for purchases which help grant final wishes for women and men suffering from terminal breast cancer.

Admission to the event is free.
