Any help would be appreciated.

agree. def. get a back up dress. try nordstrom.com as well. They have tons of dresses, shipping is usually quick and returns are easy just in case your dress come in on time.

This is going to sound bizarre and unbelievable but I ordered a satin strapless tea length dress last year from Target.com that was meant to be a bridesmaid dress and it was super cheap! Maybe check the Target website for something cute and inexpensive that you can ship immediately.

Here's the website with dresses... I got the acqua one and it was pretty true to size... I just had it taken up so it was knee length.
Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
If your color scheme works with it, ask your BMs to prepare a back up black dress just in case -- they all probably own one and they just need a few days heads up notice to get it drycleaned and looking nice.

Maybe get a backup from a dept. store. I love Macy's dresses:

I would call them and tell them that you're wanting your BM dresses and that they need to find you something -it's their responsibility to have it in on time.
If not I'd get the Better Business Bureau after them but you'd need to go to David's or a department store ASAP to find new dresses.

Oh no! I think going with a department store at this point might be your best bet. And seriously, at 17 days away I would be calling the woman once or twice a day and flipping out on her. If you don't ever get them demand refunds otherwise you'll sue or report her to the Better Business Bureau or both.

Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
First off I just want to say I am sorry you are even going through this- as if you aren't stressed out enough! Second, definitely agree with the girls- tell your girls to go out and get back up dresses. Honestly at this point, I don't think you should even care about the color scheme you originally wanted- just in case the girls can't all find a dress in that color. If they do- then fantastic! I would resort to telling them get black dresses that look great on them and not even worry about the uniformity of it all. JMO. Just try to take a deep breath and tell that woman she better make good on all of this. if she can provide you with different dresses, great, but I would demand my money back for all the girls and report her to the BBB. Get seven on your side or Fox five to do a story on her and I am sure she will come around!! Good Luck!!!!!!

Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
I would check out Davids Bridal as a last resort - or you can check out Estelles in Farmingdale - they have alot of stuff off of the rack and loads of colors - I would give that woman a major problem that she could not deliver the product that you paid for - but in retrospect it will be one small issue that you have to overcome to marry your best friend. so smile it will be alright

Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
I'm sorry you went with them.
I'd definitely talk to all of your BMs and take a trip to Kings Plaza or S.I. Mall.

Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
I have to tell you.....This is very possible..... My WEDDING dress just came in 11 days before my wedding.....It was stuck in customs at JFK airport for 1 week!!!! I was a mess.....I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, I was nasty to everyone......I just let God take it and I finally got my dress and it's beautiful!!! When did they say it arrived in customs? They have 3 full days to hold the box....Then they must release it..... So I will give you a piece of advice....Hang in there and take a deep breath and pray.....It will all work out!!!
FM me if you need to talk...

Re: Wedding day 17 days away no bridesmaid dresses
go to Jessica McClintock, BCBG, even Macy's in Herald Square, you will be better off finding dresses for everyone there they have a huge selection of evening gowns.
How many BMs do you have?
And definitely report them, I used to work for an importer, tell the dress people that it's ******** that something is held up in customs, tell her to fax them the damn invoice, that's all they need to release the dresses!!!! If they're a legitimate store then there shouldnt be a problem clearing customs on their purchases coming from overseas.
You are super calm, i would be freaking out, I'm actually freaking out for you. Good Luck with this!
