October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we want our brides to help find a cure. Whether you know someone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer, are battling yourself, or are a survivor, nearly everyone is affected by the disease. To raise awareness for breast cancer research, hundreds of companies are doing their part by donating a portion of this month's proceeds to the cause, and we want our readers to help this initiative by shopping for a cure. From pampering spa treatments to luxe bridesmaid gifts, Inside Weddings has put together five "pink" products and services attractive to brides in every stage of planning.


1. Layneau is offering an opportunity for brides to purchase fine boudoir attire for a cause. During the month of October, the lingerie company will donate 20% of the sales from its “Isabella” dressing gown in Real Princess to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Featuring fine silk, blush chiffon, and delicate lace, the luxurious, feminine robe is perfect for sultry wedding nights. $2,200; layneau.com.


2. Handmade in the USA, Isabelle Grace Jewelry's collection of necklaces, bracelets, and earrings make for memorable bridesmaid gifts. During the month of October, the jewelry company is donating 70% of the proceeds from its breast cancer awareness products to the American Cancer Society, and 20% will be donated all year long. Our favorites include the Pink Gemstone Bar Necklace and the Pink Lux Leather Bangles, but many more are available on the site. $29-75; isabellegracejewelry.com.
