Where's My Dress????

Hi Ladies...I've been pretty quiet on the board, but I feel that this deserves a post.

My Wedding is Next Friday and My Dress is NOT IN YET!!!!

I ordered my dress at the end of April and I was told it takes about 6 months to come in.. so that would be about late October/early November.  So I didnt worry when i didnt get the call in early November, because I know that things happen.  I went into the shop about Mid-November and the owner told me the dress would be shipped on December 1st and the BMs items would be in by December 23rd.  (Skeptical) Soooo I patiently waited until December 23rd and finally called.....You would not believe the lady tells me that she hadn't received confirmation that the items had been shipped.  So she said she'd call me right after Christmas with a status....Of course I ended up calling her first..... and she told me the items had been shipped and should be in by the end of last week/early part of this week....

WOULD YOU BELIEVE.....WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR EVERYTHING!??! MY GOWN, SHOES, VEIL, HEADPIECE, BMs DRESSES, SHOES, CLUTCHES......EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  PLUS, THE SHOES/CLUTCHES HAVE TO BE DYED..........

What I'm worried most is my response to all of this...i know that I'm outraged in my mind and deep in my inner emotions, but I seem wayyy too calm in this situation.  It's almost like i'm Numb to it all...I don't know if it's because I'm tired or scared beyond believe!!  I haven't been hounding her like I know she deserves...so why am I so relaxed???

What should I do?? I don't want to be confrontational, and I don't want to bring myself to a breaking boiling point.  HELP!!

Re: Where's My Dress????

  • This situation calls for you to be confrontational! It should not take this long to get your items in. If I were you I'd be calling everyday and being a massive pain in the but until that stress arrives. If it doesn't arrive in 4 to 5 days I would be demanding a total refund and going elsewhere to get a dress (I know its crazy short notice but you may have no choice.)

    I really really hope your dress comes in tomorrow!

  • I agree with Sass-

    You need to be calling. Think of it this way, the dress wasn't cheap I am sure. So you are getting your money worth.  Plus you are paving the way for other brides.

    I too would be wondering about a refund. It wasn't part of the plan. If she knew it wasn't going to be in on time, she should of told you. end of story.

    Worse comes to worse and nothing has arrived-go to a bridal cosnignment store, craigslist, friend ect and make due what what you have. Your FI will be there naked or not, and that is what is important.
  • I hope everything comes in soon! I would probably demand a refund if it doesn't come in by the end of this week. And if it does come in, I would ask for complimentary rush alterations.
  • I am the least confrontational person I know and I would have already gone spider monkey crazy on her. I would def start looking elsewhere and try to get your money back.

  • I am so sorry to hear that you are dealing with this. I would not be able to stay calm if I were you. I would go into the store tomorrow and demand to know where the items are. They should be able to give you a tracking number so you can look it up on UPS.com or USPS or Fedx. If they cannot provide you with the tracking number I would demand a refund. Good luck!

  • Holy cow!  And Good luck.  I'm also not much of a confrontational person unless extremely stressed or angry.  And with the way things have gone for you, I probably would have gotten confrontational around Christmas time.  I agree with going in today to see what's up.  I hope everything comes in for you ASAP. 

    Good Luck.

  • I agree... get confrontational, or get someone to do it on your behalf. It is a week until your wedding. I would start shopping for other optioins as soon as possible.

    This!  I'd even consider flinging poop monkey-style, too.  It's ridiculous the stuff has not arrived yet.  They better comp your rush alterations if any are needed.
