My Dress Has Arrived!



Today I got a very pleasant surprise! My dress arrived at my door! I must say that I have been very excited and also very nervous at the same time about my dress. I was excited about finally finding the dress but nervous about ordering my dress online from a company that I knew nothing about. I found them be simply "Googling" Modest wedding dresses. This company has a section called, "Temple Ready Gowns." I looked through them and found a dress that I really liked. Before ordering from them though I "Googled" them to read reviews about the company. Everything that I read was good so I took a chance. Before I placed the order my husband wanted to look at the dresses. He saw a dress that he liked better than the one that I had chosen at first. He liked my first choice but did not like that the bottom of the dress was just tulle. I loved the dress, it was what I always dreamed my dress would look like. I kept looking with him and we both found a dress that both he and I liked so I placed my order on the 25th of February. A week later I still had not received my dress and had not heard anything from the company. I called up the company and the person one the phone left a message for the shipping manager to call me. On Tuesday the manager called me. She said that when my dress was pulled to ship the person who prepared my order got the size mixed up. They had boxed up a size 26, not my size! She told me that my dress would be in stock in May. I did not want to wait til May so I asked her about my first choice. It was available!!! There was a $100 difference in the dress. My new dress was $100 cheaper. So instead of asking for a refund I ordered my veil. I found a beautiful veil for $150. They took off the extra $50 for me since my order was messed up. Today when I opened my box I was very surprised. The Romanticgowns.com had also included in my order, free of charge, a satin wrap and a bridal purse. My dress was more beautiful than I could ever imagine! The plain tulle bottom was not plain! In the picture you can not see but there are random pearls and clear beads all over the tulle! It is stunning! The light just bounces of the beads and the dress looks amazing! Also the veil I chose has the same kind of beading on the bottom of it. It is a perfect match! Some things are just meant to be!
