Confirm your measurments and make sure you get a written receipt listing the size ordered. Try to get a cap on the cost of any alterations - they can add up. Be sure to discuss what costs there will be, ie: adjusting the straps, hemming, bustles, etc. You may want to give them a wedding date a few weeks to a month before the actual date - just to be sure the dress is in on time. Ask for a fabric swatch so you can match accessories. You'll also need it for having shoes dyed if you decide to do that. Have fun!

Very Important

I don't know if you were told this or not yet but make sure you lie about your actual wedding date I told them it was on May 2nd, and it on the 27th, well my dress still isn't here so if it was my true date I would be sick right now but it isn't so i'm not that upset if I don't get it by next week I am going to raise hell.

THANK YOU!! Others had told me that too, so I told them that my wedding was 4 weeks earlier than it really is! Good luck with your dress. I'm sure you will get it on time!:-)
