The winners were announced by Cheap-Chic-Weddings.com and the Twelfth Annual Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest was presented by Cheap Chic Weddings and Charmin. Celebrity judge Mikie Russo, member of OK! TV entertaining team, helped with the final judging which took place on Haven Rooftop at The Sanctuary Hotel in Manhattan. Vicky Schooler of Charmin, Edward Meyer of Ripleys Believe it or Not, and The Sanctuarys Hank Freid were also on hand as a VIP Judges.

Charmin, the toilet paper giant that brought “the go” to the forefront in television advertising, uses cuddly looking animated bears to get its messages across, including “Don’t just get clean, get Charmin clean.”
The big question is, what happens if it rains on your wedding day wearing one of these gowns?
