Wedding Dress Mix-Up Leads To Unexpected Rescue At Milford Mall

MILFORD, CT ? The Connecticut Post Mall is sharing a heartwarming story about the rescue of a wedding dress.

A woman had accidentally put the dress in a donation bin on the mall's property.

Fortunately, she was able to get in touch with mall staff to save the dress, then drove three hours to pick it up.

Here's what the Connecticut Post Mall shared on Facebook:

It?s not every day we get a phone call like this?

This past Monday, Sheryl reached out in a panic after realizing her daughter?s wedding dress had accidentally ended up in a donation bin on our property.

Janine, our Business Development Manager, jumped into action. She contacted the clothing recycling partner, helped coordinate a meet-up at the bin, and?thankfully? they hadn?t emptied it yet.

Sheryl drove 3 hours each way to retrieve the dress? a true testament to how meaningful it was to her and her family.

We?re incredibly grateful this Thanksgiving season to have been able to help return something so special to someone in our community. Huge shoutout to Janine for her quick thinking and big heart.

Swipe to see the moment Sheryl got the dress back!

Special thank you to Standard Recycling Corporation out of Yonkers for assisting with the pickup and understanding the importance of helping even just one person!
