Hi Future Brides,

This story is one where the bride showed great trust in me!
The bride in question came to view some dresses just before my recent trip to Barcelona. The day before I left, she sent me a photograph of a dress she had tried on in another store - she had loved the style of the dress but wasn't happy with the quality and its lack of beading. She indicated that she would rather buy from me, and was wondering if I had anything similar. I explained that I currently didn't have anything similar but that I was about to leave for Barcelona and would keep an eye out for her.
A few days later I was at the Justin Alexander launch waiting for the 2017 Collection to appear on the catwalk. While I was waiting, I was going through the sketches they provide in a little booklet. I noticed one dress was similar to what this bride wanted, and WOW! when it appeared on the catwalk I JUST KNEW.
The next day I rushed to the Justin Alexander stand and, taking as many photographs as they would let me, asked if the model would try the dress on again for me.
I messaged my bride and said 'I have found the dress!'
She came in for an appointment the minute I got back and I showed her all of the photos and explained how the dress would fit her. I told her that I knew it was a risk buying a dress that she hadn't tried on or seen, but that if the style was what she liked, this dress had the beading and was of the quality she was looking for. I told her 'I feel in my heart that this dress is YOUR dress.'
Her dress arrived today and with so much excitement and nervousness, she tried it on. And YES! she loves it! It looks just as perfect as it would if I had made it from scratch for her.
