Bridesave.com - any feedback?

I'm thinking of ordering through them - especially because they are an authorized retailer of my dress (Maggie Sottero). Anyone have good or bad experiences with them?

Thanks!

I considered Netbride too, but I'm concerned by their ambiguous return policy. Bridesave really seems to guarantee you'll be satisfied.

BTW - I'll probably use Netbride for my FG dresses.

I used Bridesave.com

I also purchased a Maggie Sottero, the Amy gown.

I Highly Recommend Bridesave.com.. My gown came before the arrival date. It arrived in a box unharmed and along with a certificate.

Don't worry about using them...

Just by coincidence - he's the one who met with us a few months ago. I did, however, spend a few weeks in Warsaw for work a few years ago. What a beautiful city!!

ETA - thanks for the vote of confidence in bridesave!

I used BrideSave and was very pleased with them. My Maggie was $300 less than in the stores and it came 2 months early!

$10 per order/designer...something like that.

I bought the Impressions two pieces for my BM & MOH and it was $10 to have it shipped to one address.
Then in order to order my Flower Girl a/k/a Leaf Girl dress I had to make a seperate order at $10 s/h.

All in all on all three dresses we saved at total of $250-300! Whoo hoo!

This was one of the main reasons I was very apprehensive to order online. Usually I will do everything online.. but since i don't know anyone who did alterations, I was very nervous. Unless you know the person has experience in altering wedding dresses you might have problems. My friend took her dress to a regualar seamstress and a lot of things went wrong... including one of the straps she had put on the dress broke after the ceremony. Otherwise I probably would have ordered online...
