Bridal shop scandal: outfits to go on sale

BRIDES and grooms are being offered the chance to get their hands on €250,000 of cut-price wedding dresses and suits next week following the collapse of a plush Cork bridal shop.

Liquidators selling off the assets of the Wedding Dress Shop aim to raise up to €70,000 from the sale towards the store’s colossal debt of over €1m.

Last month the Penrose Wharf business suddenly ceased trading, sparking anger among couples who had paid big money for plush dresses and suits from the store.
