I went to a bridal salon and I found "the one". However, it was a more than I wanted to pay (on top of tax, rush shipping and alterations) so I decided to shop some more. I ended up calling around some salons that carried this designer and asked for a price quote. Maggie gave me the lowest quote for the exact same dress. I ended up buying my dress with rush shipping. (I told her I needed it earlier instead of giving her my actual wedding date). However, I made 2 follow-up calls to help ease my mind 1) to confirm the next day that she placed my order - which she did and 2) to call later about delivery status of my dress. I had called a few days before the delivery date and the dress had arrived early!
