The beauty of the bride, whether she's walking down the aisle or romancing the groom on her wedding night is not restricted to those who were born female! Even a bride or bridesmaid who was born male can be a blushing bride or bridesmaid! The first of these awards is the T-Bride of The Month, which was established in August of 1999 to highlight the beauty of the transgendered woman in the ultimate in femininity; bridal gowns and informal wedding dresses. The T-Bride of the Month Award has been discontinued as of January 2018.
