    Ive got my dress fitting with the dress shop today, All altrations have been done by someone else who they recomended for me and shes made the dress far to small in my option!
    Im so worried i feel sick, The manger of the shop where i bought it from is coming in to see what has happened, From what i have told her about it she thinks nothing can be done as to much has been cut off :(

    All i keep thinking about is i have 17 days and i cant afford to buy a new dress! x

    They should compensate you then! You have done nothing wrong, they/their seamstress that they recommended messed up hun! Don't leave until they rectify the situation. Fingers crossed for you! xx

    Good luck hun and if it doesn't fit and they can't do anything about it then do not leave until they have sorted you out a new dress! There aren't many bridal shops round where we are from so they will need to keep their reputation! Oh and if it does fit, don't forget the piccies!!! xxx

    Update : I tryed my dress on with the shop manger, She couldnt believe what she was looking at, The lady who did the alterations did them but not how there ment to be done, She didnt make the strap smaller and she only took inthe dress one side and not both, The lace back was on my right hand side instead of being inthe middle of my back! Thats why it felt uncomfy on! Shes going to do all of the alterations for me! And bring the dress to me onthe morning of my wedding and help me get into my dress :) Im so happy and no longer so worried!
    Shes also going to stop sending people to the lady who did my alterations from now on! Apparently she has 15 years experence!

    Thankyou all so much for the fingers crossed :) But i didnt get any pictures! :( xxx

    It looks gorgeous, even on the hanger, I bet it's stunning on you!
    It is very similar in many ways to my dress.
    Love your dress! :D

    Just looked at photos, lovely dress, glad its all sorted and that no more brides will be affected by bad seamstress. At least the shop has realised that.
