So, I ordered my dress in January and they told me it would be in on June 27th, but this was verbally and they didn't put it in writing. So I called them to confirm it would be in on Monday, since I have an alterations appointment scheduled for Thursday. Now they tell me, that's just the date it "should" be shipped from the manufacturer by and it will be mid-July before it gets here and is ready for me to start alterations!
It wouldn't be so bad but my alterations lady is super popular and now she'll only have 4 weeks to do it all, since we are leaving to drive from Minnesota to New York in mid-August.
I'm sure it will be fine, and 4 weeks is probably enough, but I'm someone who like a little "wiggle room" and we're getting awfully close to not having any time if something goes wrong. I'm glad I ordered my dress when I did! My friends & family kept saying they didn't see why I was rushing to order my dress so early!
Thanks ladies - I just wanted to vent a little, and now, since i have no control over the situation, I'm going to try to focus on things that really need my attention.
