Online Buying

I stayed late at the boutique the other night. I had a bride send me an email - she needed an urgent appointment so I did my best to fit her in.

The bride had bought her dress from an online store located in Brisbane. She didn’t feel that it did much for her figure (as is often the case with online purchases) but dealing with returns etc meant that she didn’t have enough time left to arrange a new dress and alterations. Her wedding is the 21st of April!
She understood that she would need to purchase something ‘off the rack’, and I selected three dresses to start with. The first dress she only liked, the second dress she LOVED, and I essentially had to force her to try the third dress on. She barely had the third dress on before she asked to try the second dress on again. She knew it was The One. I had only selected dresses that were in the bride’s size range, to minimise the amount of alterations she would need. This brings down the price - a good thing considering she’d already bought a dress. It also means that I can get her alterations done in time for her wedding.
I am so pleased that this bride will sleep well tonight knowing that she has found her dream dress.
