Def. email her if you have time and can wait awhile for an answer (that is a week or so.. its weddign season she takes awhile)...normally its a day turn aroudn on emails
I emailed her # of girls, style number and she came back with a quote... i went and ordered from her.. very quick process and all my girls went there to get measured and it took each less then 5 min ...
she's wonderful.. id wait an extra MONTH for her to get back to me hehe.. my dresses were ordered first week of july and will be in 9/25!

Re: Gownfind.com
There's more info about her in my review. I tried to save my BMs money but I realized later that they would have preferred to spend more and get better service.

Re: Gownfind.com
I am using Phyllis for my BM dresses and we have had a wonderful experience so far. I emailed her in teh beginning of 2006 with teh dress I had chosen, she gave me a price quote and also a quote for alterations (I beleiev it is a $45 cap for BM dresses). When we were ready to order (which was in early May or so) a few girls went to her shop and were measured, others simply called in their measuremnts. The dresses should be here any day now. I have called her a few times to ask random quetsions and she has always been helpful. I would definitely recommend it, she came in more than $50 cheaper than all other places for the same dress....

Re: Gownfind.com
I bought my dress from herright off the rack-it was a great prce and she put a $175 cap on alterations including the bustle. Depending on whether I lose (HOPEFULLY!) or gain weight will depend on wether or not she takes the dress in or out! She has been GREAT though

I'd have to agree with this - she's welcoming the business, but she does need the extra hands! I wouldn't trust anyone else, though, with my dress, escpecially not David's Bridal!

She's a flake. Exactly. And when you get there to pick up a finished dress and it still has pins in it and is not done, you realize that it's not just a matter of forgetting who you are, she forgets to do what she says she's going to do.
