about a week about i posted about just finding out that my dress, which i ordered in september, wasn't going to be shipping until mid-july, which bummed me out because i live out of state.

well, my Mom went down to the shop today because she wanted to find out just why exactly it took so long and we come to find out that THEY NEVER ORDERED THE FREAKIN DRESS. they told my momthey decided it wasn't necessary to order the dress a year in advance when we purchased it last september and they only placed the order in March, even though we explained to them the situation of me living out of state and only coming back to NY 3 or 4 times between last september and our wedding this september. yet, they made their own decision about NOT ordering my dress. they still guarentee it'll be here by my next time home (july 28) so I should be able to go for at least one fitting, but i still can't believe they never ordered the dress. they originally told us it would be in in march too. .. they totally lied. . . i'm even more annoyed than i was last week when i found out it wouldn't be in until mid july. now that i know why, i'm livid. i guess ignorance is bliss. .. thanks for letting me vent

we had a similar experience happen to us when my sister was getting married- my other sister at the time was living in germany- long story short, she got her dress altered like 2 days before the wedding- talk about stress.

For my dress,the BM dresses and my mom's dress- the stores all have my date as 12/8/07 and not 12/29/97- just so I don't have an added stress

yeah, they kept telling me 'worse comes to worse, you'll just have to have it fitted when you get home for the wedding' i'm like, there is no way in hell that is happening, since i know the dress will easily be two sizes too big for me. - i wish i had thought enough ahead to lie about my wedding date. live and learn i guess.

thanks for all the support, you guys!!
