Default Got another dress !!!

Thanks everyone for your help and support with the wedding dress situation.
I have got a different dress......one i really love, it is much nicer than the orginal one i ordered. I had seen it the first time i looked in the shop but it was out of my budget, but they offered me it for £220 instead of the £650. They have also paid for it to be altered, i got the wrap and under skirt at a much discounted price. But best of all they charged me £150 punds for 4 bridesmaid dresses, so in the end i have made a huge saving.

Thanks
Gail

p.s. Now i only have to find a piccy of the new dress to show you all......it is by essence and it is silver. Does essence have a website??

I'm so happy that you got a dress that you really liked after what that shop did to you!

I wasn't fair of them to let you order your dress three weeks before they went bancrupt as they must have known it was around the corner. But I think you're the one who definately got the better deal out of the situation, what with getting a more expensive dress than originally budgeted for and your Bmaids dresses.

Just can't wait to see pictures of them now!
