When I went to try on the dress for the first time the manager was such a B! I was so uncomfortable with how big it was (mainly how LONG it was...made for a freggin Top Model) and I shared my concerns and wanted to start alterations right away but she refused. She was just like its not that big, it will get done, stop freaking out YOU ORDERED THIS DRESS...etc. Really pissed me off and then they wouldnt let me get an alterations appt started until May. My wedding is in June so Im still freaking out that they will actually get it done, but nothing I do convinces them to start my appts now.
I really hope it all works out for you. Is it too late to take it to an independent seamstress? She might be more willing to actually do what you ask and work hard to keep you as a return customer.
I've heard about some places putting off ordering your dress (ie: keeping the money from your deposit to buy more dresses for their store and ordering yours later on) or putting off doing alterations because your wedding isn't until such and such a date. Because of this whenever I had appointments I told them my wedding was a month earlier so that I got everything done in more than enough time. It was funny to see my Mom's reaction the first time I said the wrong date to the lady. She looked like I had two heads!

This is an old thread but has anyone found coupon codes for Luna Bazaar? I LOVE their glass vases, votives and bottles. I think it'll make the reception gorgeous.

Oh my gosh - fun!! Now I have someone to bond with over the fact I realized it's 7 months until the day. For some reason I thought it was less. I was also considering Now Saphire. We must be related, lol!

Those look great! Can you add the link to the specific bag or give the product number? I've been hoping to find something like this for the same price.

I just can't see booking for this big of a group with less than 6 months to go so we took a chance on the flights being changed, luckily when I spoke to the WC she said not to worry it happens all the time and they are usually very good at accomidating this happening! We had a few guests that had already booked holidays at work but luckily for them this works a little better since we now leave on Rememberance Day it isnt so bad!
Oh well crisis averted and we can carry on waiting for the days to pass!
Whoa. Good for you for taking it in stride. What airline did you book with? I really hope this doesn't happen to us as I don't think everyone would take it so well if our trip changed by several days.

Oh, well maybe it doesn't take 2 hours for hair? That's good! Okay, I will stop worrying about it now, thanks ladies!

Nice! It's great to find something for $1 and have it work out perfectly!

My ceremony is at 3pm so I made my appointment for 10am. They scheduled 2 people at a time so I believe the last person who will be getting their hair done is at 12:30. That should give us time for pictures and just relax before the ceremony.
Do any of you ladies know how the alcohol works for the reception? I'm having my reception in Barcelona and I was wondering if they have a bar set up or how that works.
My ceremony is at 2pm and they scheduled me in at 9am, so we have similar timelines (two people scheduled at a time). My only concern was for the girls going after me at 10:30am. It says hair takes 2 hrs and make up 1hr so that feels like it's cutting it close. But maybe it doesn't actually take 2 hrs to do their hair?
Good question about the bar set up. I also want to figure out if they'd be able to do a few signature drinks for us.

Hmmm that seems odd to have to pay in full. Our TA (who is actually from Calgary) arranged a group package for us back in January and everyone had until this week I think to put down a deposit. The deposit is only $100 pp and then they have to pay in full by 60 or 80 days prior to the trip. Maybe you should try a new TA? If you're interested in the contact details for my TA, PM me and I'll give you her info.
