Village Bridal Alterations?

Anyone have any feedback on the alterations from VB? I loved the customer service and the salesgirls, but I knew there was something wrong with my dress and looking at pics of my wedding is making me sick to my stomach...it was absolutely not how it should be and I'm actually going to call and complain, but I'm just curious, does anyone else have feedback relating to this?

What was wrong with it?

it wasnt taken in enough so it started bunching up, and the ruching had been altered in some way so that instead of being across my waist, it was under my stomach, so in most pictures i look pregnant and my hips look humongous. granted im not a twig, but i lost 25 lbs for my wedding and i looked better in the dress when i first tried it on in january :(

wow that sucks. There was a bride there when I was looking at dresses and the alterations on the dress didn't look so great either. My mom and I couldn't believe that it was her final fitting actually.

I had my dress altered there and had no problems. My dress fit like a glove.

my sister even said something at my second (and as it turned out, final) fitting...the seamstress was jist like,oh no that's the way it came from the factory...and then she insisted i didn't need another fitting, even though my wedding was like 2 1/2 weeks away (i think)...i ended up calling and insisting on another fitting and they put me on hold to talk to her and then told me i could try it on the day i picked it up, which was 2 days before the wedding and it would have already been pressed. i decided it wasnt even worth it, but now im wondering if i should have...or if it would even have made a difference at that point. a lot of my bridesmaids had issues as well. every time i look at a pic of my wedding i want to cry... i shouldnt have to feel that way.
