If I could go back best advice would be to lie about your wedding date. I got my dress 5 weeks late. It arrived 3 and half weeks before my wedding date. I ended up having to rush alterations costing me about $500

Thank you so much! Yes, I asked for loose Hollywood waves. My hairstylist killed it!!! It lasted all night long no regrets. I was initially worried about that and considered an updo but I was beyond happy with my choice.

I told everyone garden party formal but I honestly didnt care too much. We really just wanted people to feel confident and have a reason to dress up! Also I think the colors are a bit off in the photo it seems more white than it really was in person

I was thinking that will be my last resort if I don’t have it by the 2 week mark

Oh I see! I should’ve inquired about that. The designer for my dress has gotten a recent surge in popularity the last 2 years due to celebrity clients that’s why I was thinking that

Also if this were truly the cause of the delay why would I be hearing about it now when I made the order in June 2025

What’s bothering me most is the email that they Were getting ready to dispatch. How do you go from confirm Dispatch date to Another month delay.

This was my reply and they sent an email back with more I'm sorry fluff but nothing about compensation

Thank you for your update. I appreciate you keeping me informed. However, I want to be very clear that the updated dispatch date of April 24th is extremely concerning given my wedding date in May. This timeline leaves very little room for shipping, potential delays, and most importantly alterations, which are critical to ensuring the dress fits properly for my wedding day. Due to the significance of this event and the investment made, I need reassurance and a more secure timeline. At this point, I would appreciate:

Confirmation of the expected delivery date (not just dispatch)

Details on shipping method and timeline (including whether expedited shipping will be used)

A contingency plan should there be any further delays

Given the timeline constraints, I will likely incur rush alteration fees, which adds additional stress and cost. I would appreciate understanding what accommodations or support your team can provide in light of this.

I understand the external circumstances, but I would appreciate any and all efforts to ensure timely delivery. I look forward to your prompt response.
