It's a nice day for a white wedding.
Especially when deal-savvy brides are saving buckets of green by
shopping at Target for their wedding gowns.
Call it Target, call it tar-jay, the superstore that's made its
name on cheap chic is stepping gingerly into the wedding industrial
complex's lucrative waters with wedding gowns, veils and Easter-egg-
colored pocket squares and cummerbands.
At the center of Isaac Mizrahi's latest Target brand extension
are the gowns, priced from $89.99 for a strapless sheath to $159.99
for a dress called the "classic princess."
