Around 400 guests gather in St Brigid's Church to view the bridal fashions show which featured gowns wore throughout the decades.
Proceeds from the event will be split between ovarian cancer charity Angels of Hope and St Brigid's Church of Ireland building fund.
Speaking to the paper organiser Molly Grattan said: "I thought it would be nice to organise it for the ovarian cancer charity because a very good friend of mine died from that awful illness a year ago.
"And because the church's central heating system had to be replaced we thought we could split the proceeds between the cancer charity and the church building fund.
"I am absolutely delighted with how the event has turned out. I thought everybody - the bridesmaids, brides and the men - all looked stunning."
The Rev Bill Boyce, rector of St Brigid's, told the Belfast Telegraph: "I am delighted with the event. There were a lot of people involved and we had many rehearsals........sometimes we weren't getting out of the church until 1am!! But it's all been worth it and its great to have some of the proceeds going to the building fund as we have had to replace the entire central heating system.
