I think that it is cutitng it rather close... there's no way you can get it sooner..? Which bridal salon did you go to? YOu'll still have enough time to get the alterations...but I'm just the type that likes to get things as early as possible....

It is cutting it a little close, but I think you'll be fine. My dress is supposed to take a year to come in. I ordered it in the end of June and they said it won't come in until the summer!

Who did you order with? My dress was supposed to take 7 months, i ordered in October for my September wedding and they told me it would be in in May. Low and behold, I didn't get my dress until the second week in August.

The crappy part is waiting. Although we cut it close, I had more than enough time to have my dress altered.

Good luck! And if it's not in by a time that YOU think is acceptable, call EVERY SINGLE DAY. It wasn't untl I did that that I finally started getting some answers. i didn't use BR though, so you shouldn't have to worry!

That seems a little close..I ordered it towards the end of October and they were telling me it will be in in early April and my wedding is 1st of August, but since mine is a destination wedding, we are leaving 10 days before....

Bridal Reflections told me 9 months and it came in 3. I think they always pad it just in case.
