Hello there, brides-to-be!  Gilt has just announced the sale I know you will not want to miss: The Wedding Shop!

Gilt’s Wedding Shop will open up April 17, 2011 and run through the 17th.  You will find everything you’ll need to make sure your big day goes off without a hitch.

Here’s a little peek behind the scenes, courtesy of the Gilt Blog:

On the fashion front, we’re offering early admission to the Kleinfeld sample sale via our friends at Gilt City, to kick things off in style. We’ll have designer picks for grooms and their buddies, and Badgley Mischka, Judith Lieber, Nicole Miller, and others will be on hand with an array of of-the-moment handbags, shoes, gloves, jewelry, and more. Vera Wang Bridesmaids and Twobirds Bridesmaids will both be returning to offer their coveted bridal-party styles.

We’ll also have invitations, gift ideas, and bridal survivor picks like Commando, Tan Towels, and GO SMiLE, in addition to a host of destination-wedding deals over on Jetsetter, for spots like The Pensinsula New York and The Sebastian Vail, in Colorado. Whether you’re hoping to get married in the country or city, at the beach or in Vegas, we’ve got you covered—and that’s not to mention all the great romantic destinations we’re offering for the blissful honeymoon that follows.

There will also be a Bridal Sweepstakes, and one lucky lady will walk away with some fab prizes: a Marchesa Gown and an all-expense paid trip to NYC for fun and a custom-gown fitting.  The giveaway will actually go live April 13, 2011.

The Wedding Shop will only be open to members of the fab online sample sale Gilt.  Please click here to register if you are not yet a member. Registration is free and quick, and will grant you immediate access to the site.
