<P ALIGN=JUSTIFY><font size=2 face=Tahoma>Unfortunately with only twelve months in a calendar year, not every applicant that applies for the "<A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/DressContest/dressmonth.html">Dress of the Month Contest</A>" award ends up being featured.  So this "With Honors" Circle has been created for "<I>the best of the rest</I>", if you will.  The following are beautiful bridal gowns that all stand out in their own right - and each <B>deserves</B> to have its moment in the spotlight...</font></P>

<P ALIGN=JUSTIFY><font size=2 face=Tahoma>So if you are sitting there thinking, "Hey!  My wedding dress was beautiful too...I could win this award...no scratch that, I <U>must</U> win this award!" -- why not <A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/DressContest/dressmonthap.html">fill out the application</A> and prove it!</P>

<P ALIGN=JUSTIFY><font size=2 face=Tahoma>The <B>rules</B> are few.  Unlike the <A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/DressContest/">Dress Contest</A>, <B>anyone</B> is eligible to participate in the Dress of the Month Contest.  (The Dress of the Month Contest is <B>not</B> limited to <A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/Webrings/newlywed.html">Newlywed Web Ring</A> members only!)  We want <B>real brides</B> in <B>real wedding gowns</B>.  No supermodel magazine scans or "on the rack" shots, please.  You must have at least one photo of your dress online at the URL you submit, so that the contest owner can see what the dress actually looks like on you.  (Multiple shots from multiple angles preferred.)  <B>E-mailed photos are not accepted</B>!</font></P>

<P ALIGN=JUSTIFY><font size=2 face=Tahoma>Please enter the Dress of the Month Contest only <U>once</U> every three months.  Contest winners are asked to display the award (shown <A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/DressContest/dressmonthaward.html">here</A>) at their web site, with a link back to <A HREF="http://www.whollymatrimony.com/DressContest/dressmonth.html">this URL</A>.  Photos entered <U>must</u> be available for current and future use/promotion by the contest owner.  The Dress of the Month Contest is privately owned, and your photos will not be used for profit!</font></P>

<P ALIGN=JUSTIFY><font size=2 face=Tahoma>As this contest grows, this web site will be continually updated to archive each Dress of the Month.  Good luck to everyone who decides to enter, and as always..."<I>may the best dress win</I>"!</font></P>
