How long did your wedding dress take to come in after it was ordered?

Diana, on September 20, 2014 at 9:54 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 27

I ordered my dress on August 23rd. It's due to come in in November. I am DYING to see it. I know this is a relatively short time. I can't imagine how it must feel to have to wait longer-- I know some of you ladies have to! How long do/did you have to wait for your dress to come in? Do you look at pictures of it every day like I do?!?! haha!

    Mine took about 12 weeks. I still look at pictures of it all the time because it's at my parents house.

    It look 6 months for mine to come in. I tried on a sample dress that was so small that the back was completely open and they had to tie me in. I hated the pics of myself in it.

    It took so long to come in by the time it came in- I almost forgot what it looked like.

    Caylin, sounds like yours took about as long as mine will.

    K + B, I can't imagine!!! Luckily you liked it when it did come in. It's hard to imagine what it will look like if it doesn't fit correctly.

    I ordered my dress in June. I was told it would be in September 6. I got a call about a month later that it was in.

    I ordered it April 19th and it came in September 11th! The ladies told me it would take 6-8 months, but by 4 I was dying! Luckily it just took 5.

    ETA: Yes I look at my 1st fitting pictures of it every single day!

    Sounds like it comes in faster than expected, many times! Maybe mine will too Smiley smile

    Melissa, yours just came in! Have you tried it on yet? Did you already have your first fitting?

    Yup! I happened to be going up to that city that night because that was the weekend we were going to meet with a florist, a baker, have a tasting with our caterer, and meet with our officiant. It's out of town so we have to fit what we can in when we go. So that was quite fortuitous! I got to have my first fitting the very next day!

    ETA: Here's the link!

    Mine took exactly six months. It just depends on the designer as well as where bought the dress.

    I feel like an oddball. LOL I ordered mine online on Tuesday, 9/16 and it arrived last night, 9/19. I tried the same thing on in the store then ordered a sample from the website so it wasn't custom made or anything.

    Im glad you posted this--I was wondering the same thing! I ordered a Sophia Tolli dress in mid July and they told me that it would take 6-8 months to arrive...It came in on Tuesday--TWO months! Its a bit scary that it came so early, but I know that if there is anything wrong with it I have PLENTY of time to fix it!

    Ill be trying it on next Friday for the first time (post shopping) and will post picsSmiley smile

    Mine took four months to come in, which was earlier than I expected. They told me it would be at least five.

    Mine took 5 months, which is just about what the store predicted. Of course it came in the week a massive project was due, so I had to wait a few days to try it on which was probably worse than the 5 months of waiting! I looked at pictures all the time...I still do since my dress is being held at the shop!

    I was told it would take at least a month, but arrived less than 2 weeks later.
