    well we went and had the 2 bm measured and the dresses were ordered. we asked the girl in shop to order a 12 for one but she kept saying that it would be too small so ordered one 10 and one 12. both of the bm were worried that the dresses would be too big and so was i but the shop said they would be fine.

    Both of the bm have put on wight recently so were then saying well they should fit then or maybe a bit tight. got to the shop and both dresses are huge! even h2b said they look awful at the mo. i couldnt say anything in the shop as i would have gone mad and the girl in shop was a bit speechless and said i will have to pay for the alterations! i am so mad!

    There is a pic of the dresses in my album. they are nice dresses but look awful when on!

    Morning :-) I was wondering where this was earlier ...

    The shop is going to make you pay for alterations? Even though it's their fault the dresses are too big? I would be having a conversation with the manager!

    i knew that i would have to pay to have them taken up and i was fine with that. but they are about £35 a hem and there are 2 dresses. the straps need to be made shorter and need to be taken in so will work out really expensive. they dont do alterations themselves they get someone in to do them!

    Good morning everyone x Just read what's happening, crikey sounds like the fault of the shop I'm with the other girls, speak to the manager, sounds like the girl you saw isn't very experienced. Hope you manage to get sorted

    yea i will do! the girl in the shop said we agreed to the sizes that were ordered so it is my fault. they way i see it is if they were measured correctly then they would fit and not be 2 sizes too big

    I would have thought though so close to you getting married and the fact you are upset and have bought them from their shop that out of courtesy if nothing else they should be bending over backwards to put this right for you without charging you.

    If they were measured babe then it is their fault.....they will just say it is your fault so you dont complain and you pay the extra for alterations...

    Morning twirler....good weekend? x
