Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Phil 4:6-7

First Holy Communion Dress Giveaway



While it is still Lent by the liturgical calendar and Easter is still over a month away, right around the corner is First Holy Communion season and I bet if you have a son or daughter who is making his or her First Holy Communion, you're starting to plan. That's why I was so happy when Noori Dresses contacted me and asked me if I would like to give away a First Holy Communion dress on my blog.

Heck yeah!

Noori Dresses is a California company that specializes in special occasion dresses at reasonable prices (I wish I had known about them last year when I was sewing dresses for junior bridesmaids and a flower girl!). They also specialize in great customer service, and I guess it shouldn't surprise me that they reached out to me to offer a free dress to one of my readers. When I actually voiced that the offer sounded too good to be true, a representative of the company said, "Instead of spending advertising budget on a media firm,  it is better that the money is going to a Catholic, who are our customers."

 I quite agree. 

They have a wide range of styles available in First Communion dresses, from very fru fru to very simple, and everything in between.



I love all the layers on this one.




And the pin tucks on this one -- so sweet.




And this embroidered bodice with full skirt...stunning.


The dresses pictured here are just a small sample of what is available at their website. The winner of the giveaway can choose any dress priced under $79.99 and Noori Dresses will ship it directly to you. And if you don't win, well you can still get a beautiful dress for a great price. They have veils, jackets and shoes available, too.

To enter the giveaway, just leave a comment here on my blog, and be sure to leave a way to get in touch with you. You can also email me at momoffthegrid(at)gmail(dot)com (don't forget to replace (at) and (dot) with the symbols).

If you want to be entered twice, you can promote my Etsy Shop Mary Devotions (which happens to be stocked with rosaries for boys and girls, jewelry, and scapulars) on your blog or on Facebook. Just tell me in the comment box that you've done so and I'll enter you twice (or three times if you promote my shop on FB and your blog).






The name will be chosen on March 11 at noon -- and remember, the more you promote my shop, the better your chances.

  4. Hi! I just shared a FB post made by Like Mother, Like Daughter, Liked your page on FB, and included a link on my blog (www.turningleafstudio.com). Beautiful dresses and gifts! Our oldest daughter made her First Holy Communion last year, and our second child is making hers this year... still looking for the right dress for her. Our son will be next in a year or two, then our 4th the year following him. I'm looking forward to looking through your site for gift ideas for our children as well as some friends whose children are making their First Communion this year too. Blessings!
