My bridal place did my final alteration and bussle together. It generally takes about a week in a half to 2 weeks. 3 weeks is like a month!!!

Don't wait until the last minute if it is the DB in Lake Grove. You don't want to know my horror with them. I went 7 times the last week before my wedding, so they could do it right. I took it home after the 5th or 6th time and knew it wasn't right, but accepted it anyway. My BM's saw it and freaked out and demanded that they fix it immediately. they did. they hired a new mgr that is suppose to be fixing issues. Once I had an appmt that they messed up the date, so watch that too.
