15 months for a bridal dress to come in? UPDATE: I CALLED

15 months for a bridal dress to come in? UPDATE: I CALLED

Does this sound right or a bit extreme?

I ordered my wedding dress March 2006 and I just called to find out if it was in yet (mind you I still have pleanty of time so I'm not panicked). The woman checked the order status and said it's not due to come in until June!!!

15 months for a wedding dress to come in? The woman said it was normal for this desiner (Demetrios). What do you guys think?



UPDATE:

So I called Macy's again and asked why there was such a hold up. They said they put down that my wedding was August 25 and that they don't have the room in their facility to hold dresses for very long. So the warehouse will ship the dress to them about 2 months before the 'wear date' and that's why it won't be in this Macy's until June. Phew!!!

No way in hell

I have a Demetrios and it took 6 months for mine and I had a hollow to hem done

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

NOT normal - they probably waited to order it since you ordered so far in advance.

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

I hope that my Demetrios doesn't take that long...that seems odd

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

Doesnt sound right...maybe soemthign went wrong and they had to re-order it or something and they arent telling you?

I had a Demetrios and ordered it in October and they said it wont be in until april or may so about 7mnths so yeah that does seem a little too long over a yr thats insain where did you order it from?

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

NO WAY, Demetrios takes about 7months to come in .

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

my demetrios took 9 months to come in.

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

I got my dress in 2 months, if that long. And mine is Demetrios.

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in?

they probably put off making your dress since it was ordered so far in advance. Getting it 4 months in advance is still more than enough time though

I Believe that is totally unsual. I feel that the reason its taking that long because your wedding date is in october. Some brides usually give in a sooner wedding date, so that they can get their dress sooner.

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in? ADDED QUESTION

That's INSANE!!!!!! I think they didn't put the order in right away

This is where I got mine from as well

I am sure you will get it way before then. They told me 10 months and I got it in 6. I would not worry

Re: 15 months for a bridal dress to come in? ADDED QUESTION

I have NEVER heard of a dress taking that long. Although, the reality is (I learned this from a dress shop) that whatever your wedding date is,,,,they work with it. If you tell them your getting married in May, they get it as close to that date as they can. In reality, if you were getting married in 7 weeks, they could get it for you. Its all about when you tell them your wedding is. If you're not getting married for 15 months, and you order a dress and put your deposit down....they'll take their sweet old time.
