ao, it is AAM time - remember when my wedding dress was lost in the mail? and then i got it?

Posted by Andie Jul 13 '12, 12:42

well, i don't think i bothered telling you all that it was too short, she made it standard length instead of the length i'd ordered. so, i had a choice, full refund, she would remake from scratch, or i could keep with a 20% refund.

i chose a complete remake. It was supposed to take 3 weeks. Today is 3 weeks. I emailed yesterday and haven't heard back.

Wedding is in 64 days.

At what point do i start to panic, do you think?

I agree with the "give it another 30 or so days until you panic", but maybe keep your eye out for a backup, just in case you need it? - kelly Jul 13, 13:08 6

    - If you're flying you generally get a form to fill out. How much of items like cigarettes and liquor, and the value of anything else you're "importing" - MojaveMeg Jul 13, 13:24
    - heh, it probably wouldn't have to happen. i'm having her courier it this time, so, that won't be an issue. - Andie Jul 13, 13:21
google the maker, one thing about brides is, they love to post their experiences talk about their vendors as much as restaurant/movie critics - zeitgeist Jul 13, 12:59 2

  - My clients must hate me because I always take at least 24 hours to respond. I don't like responding "working on it." I'd rather have complete info -- nm - Max Jul 13, 12:52
