! WARNING! DO NOT SHOP AT CONFETTI BOX, ECCLES!
I plead with anyone looking to purchase their wedding dress NOT to go to this shop. I was left the day before my wedding standing in tears in the shop, with a dress that was not ready. It started off ok, finding the right dress and ordering it. When it arrived it seemed too big, but i was told it was the wrong underwear that was making it look that way. At the 2nd fitting i was rushed through it (they obviously had too many jobs on before the bank holiday in August). My next appointment was the week of my wedding, but again i was told it would be ready on time, and just needed collecting, the manager was going to sort it herself. However on the 'final' visit to 'pick' my wedding dress, it turned out the manager had gone on holiday leaving her young daughter to run the place.
The dress had been forgotten about and unfinished. They had sewn on wrong straps in a different color to my dress! I was told to come in the next day as they were too busy and they would sort it... This was Friday and i was getting married the next day! As i walked out of the shop in tears... i saw someone about to go in. I warned her not to go in because of what they had done. She replied it was too late, she had bought her dress and they had ordered it 4 sizes too big. When it the dress came in, there was no time to re-order it, and she had to make do!
Please have a wonderful wedding, but find your dress somewhere else. Don't let your special day be overshadowed by this kind of stress and upset that i had to endure. Also make sure your dress is ready weeks before your big day.
Don't be pushed into taking a late fitting date, because they are too busy. You are paying for this service, make sure you get a good one.
