        Brides of March

Started by the Cacophony Society, the event's name is a pun on the term Ides of March, and is a parody of weddings in western culture. The event, which began in 1999, is part pub crawl and part street theater. while wearing a thrift store wedding dress. History Michele Michele got the idea while looking at used wedding dresses at a thrift store in 1999:I saw a rack of used wedding dresses and realized how often the dream of an ideal marriage had failed and how so much of this dream has been fabricated in order to fuel the ever-increasing consumption of new products.
