I received a letter from the Bridal Salon where I purchased my gown, informing me that the gown had arrived. (What?! Less than a month after it was ordered?!) They originally told me ~5 months from the order date- what happened to that? Additionally, the letter said the gown needed to be inspected within 10 days, Monday-Friday, with a 24-hour in-advance appointment. Oh... and the remainder of the balance is due...
Hmm... I live in CO. The salon is in OH. My mother & father work full-time Mon-Fri.
My mom called the salon to "chat" with them, as they did not provide us with ANY of the details within the letter at the time of purchase. It was a total shock. Fortunately, one of the shop managers told my mom that she could come in on Sunday... but tried to tell her that she needn''t inspect the dress because THEY already do it. Hahaha... Yeaaahhhh... My mom said, "Oh, that''s great. I will inspect it too before making the final payment. And I would like to compare it to the sample dress that PilsnPinkysMom tired on."
Don''t get me wrong-- this place has been great otherwise... And this isn''t necessarily a BAD thing that''s happening-- they just kept us a bit out of the loop. Has anyone else ever heard of receiving a wedding gown, from out of the country, 24 days after purchase? I sure haven''t. Oh well.
Fingers crossed it''s the right dress & in perfect condition!!
