Edmonton Brides 2012/2013/ 2014...

[Jeanetta H]

Hello Ladies!! I am from Edmonton and I am getting married May 2014 at the Ocean Turquesa! I am wondering if any of you have shopped at Gemini Bridal for a dress? I found a dress I love and they are the only store who  carried it. So I made an appointment and asked about the dress. The sales person confirmed they had it so I booked to try it on. I called a day before to make sure they still had it and she confirmed that yes they do. I went it, the manager had no idea what dress I had asked to try on and I thought that was weird since I had called twice confirming that I wanted to specifically try that dress. So I told her and she said she would have to search the store so my mom and I sat and waited for 15 min. She then told me they dont even have it in the store it is in their warehouse in Toronto!! I was really disappointed. The manager apologized over and over and told me that she would have it sent to the store and it would arrive in about a week and a half. I called back a week later and the saleperson had no idea what I was talking about. And proceeded to tell me the manager is out of the country. I am very disappointed in the lack of customer service there. They took my number and said they would call me when they figured out what was happening with the dress. I have yet to hear back. Very disappointed !!

Edmonton brides! I'm selling my wedding dress. I would love to hang onto it, but I would rather someone else get the joy of wearing it instead

 

Looking to sell my wedding dress for $500 OBO that I bought at Ethos in Edmonton for $850, plus $350 in alterations. It's a very simple, but beautiful lace zip up gown that has empire waist beading, and a satin bow in the back. I am 5'1 and 105lbs, and the dress was tailored for me so I could wear 1 inch sandals. The dress was originally a size 1and was taken in a bit, but it looks like it could be let out a few inches (seamstress left some fabric inside the dress) as well. It was so comfortable and light for our summer wedding in Mexico, but it's elegant enough to wear for a fancier wedding in the winter. We got married on July 6th, 2013 and I would really like to sell the dress to make some money for grad school in the fall Please text/call/email 780-239-3930 or [email protected] for more photos or to ask questions.

Thanks! Keep in mind, I'm 5'1, so it's appropriate that I'm a size 1 I had to hem the dress SO MUCH lol! I hadn't thought of that...good idea!!
