“AVOID BRIDES BE LOVELY THEY ARE GOING INTO LIQUIDATION”

Written on: 19/01/2012 by angrybridetobe (1 review written)

IN OCTOBER 2011 ME AND MY MUM WENT TO BRIDES BE LOVELY IN MANCHESTER AND AS ANY BRIDE TO BE IS I WAS EXCITED AT LOOKING AT THE WEDDING DRESSES. I DIDN'T EXPECT TO FIND A WEDDING DRESS ON OUR FIRST WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING EXPERIENCE BUT I DID. THE DRESS WAS NEARLY £1000 AND DUE TO DRESS STYLES CHANGING EVERY FEW MONTHS U DIDN'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON GETTING MY PERFECT DRESS. SO MY MUM PAID THE DEPOSIT WHICH WAS HALF THE AMOUNT.WE HAVE LOST DEPOSIT AS BRIDES BE LOVELY ARE GOING BUST.

I have bought my dress from there. Had you been sized or had you just ordered your dress. They have said to me that beacause i have been sized i will get it i am just worried that i wont get it.

I had paid the deposit which was near £500 and not yet been sized because only days after ordering my dress I found out I was pregnant. I'm now nearly 5 months pregnant and with a big bump. My mum phoned the solicitors, who said that if I wanted to keep my dress I needed to be sized and paid remaining £500 for my dress before 31st january to be sure I'd get my dress. Also then the dress would be able to be picked up from another shop or a hotel, but obviously I can't get sized yet as size I am now with being pregnant I'm obviously not going to be that size when want dress. Also myself even if I wasn't pregnant and could get sized, well I have feeling would pay the remaining £500 get sized they say oh you can get dress on such and sucha date from where ever and I have feeling it would be just words and wouldn't get dress. And then lost even more money. It is bad enough loosing £500 without loosing £1000. So I totally understand ypur concern with unsure if would get dress yourself. I sure hope you do. But as for me well thankfully we aren't getting married till August next year so now have to start saving and looking for another dress all over again. Fingers crossed this time I actually get my dress at end of the day. Good luck with your wedding

How did you pay your deposits? Although we've been promised delivery of our dresses I still checked with my bank yesterday and because i paid deposits with a Visa Debit card i am covered on their insurance for none delivery of someothing i've paid a deposit for. You've just got to show the bank proof that you've contacted the company concerned. So i'm making sure i've got copies of everything and dates and times of conversations. Good Luck with everything

I called them yesterday as im due to take delivery of my dress this week (and received the liquidation letter on saturday) - yes they are going into liquidation but are still taking delivery of dresses (not sure up to what date though) - they aren't sure as to when the shop is going to close but if you dress has been ordered for delivery soon then it will be sent and if not at the shop then at a local pick up address

hope you manage to sort something out - heres a link for advice from the citizens advice

Hope you manage to get your deposit back
