We were at a wedding fair a couple of months ago and entered a draw - various prizes from the company such as free kilt/suit hire, discount vouchers off outfit or dress purchases. The postman has just been and I have won £200 voucher towards the purchase of a bridal gown but I already have my dress! Should I contact them and ask to put it towards something else or is that being cheeky? What would you ladies do?

I can't imagine they would do anything. I would read the terms and conditions on the voucher. I bet it's towards the price of dress, fI'll price not to be in conjunction with any other offer etc.... depends how much the dresses are in the first place but £200 is alot. They might offer you 20% off a veil or tiara as a good will gesture. X

Thanks I'll contact them to see if I can put it towards kilt hire as I already have all my accessories to go with my dress and I've got someone making my bridesmaid dresses. Sammi, there are no T&C's on the voucher just an expiry date so may as well see what they say, I've nothing to lose I suppose.

Let us know how you get on by updating on here. Will be interesting to know. If not, maybe sell it on, even if you got £150 for it, at least you won't actually be losing anything from it.

^^^ Good post, was something I was going to suggest. Someone would be thankful for £50 or so off their wedding dress and you would still be making something from it and you will then have cash to spend as you please :) x

Well the company finally replied. The answer was a resounding no, I also asked if I could 'give' it to someone else to use and they said no as it has my name on it and they would ask for identification to confirm. :-(

That's rubbish :o( Did they suggest what you do with it? £200 is a lot of money

The only thing they offered is the possibility of a small discount on kilt hire depending on how much people would be in the bridal party, they gave the impression that if it's less than 6 then they're not interested. Their customer service is not great considering they've not been open that long and are looking for business!
