Bridesmaid Dress Issue - David's Bridal

Alli, on February 18, 2020 at 1:22 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 18

If anyone is ordering from David's Bridal and has a wedding before JUNE... you better hope your bridesmaids have ordered already! I got a call from our local store this morning and was informed the dress my sister picked was on a "hot list" and needed special approval to be shipped (turns out she couldn't even get the approval...) So my sister had to get another dress (luckily she's my only BM and I don't care as long as it's the right color...)


Almost every dress had a delivery date of June 8 or after... not sure what is up but wanted to let everyone know!

    Good heads up! A friend of mine has also been having issues with DB and their BM dresses... wedding season is upon us, I suppose. I got mine from Amazon, so I feel very lucky.

    Thank you for posting this! Our wedding is June 6 and I would hate to scramble for dresses. I will call them today.

    I think a lot places are having issues due to the coronvirus outbreak in China, because a lot of dress start there. I know yesterday my cousin messaged me because she was concerned about how long dresses from Azazie are going to take (it says they start in California, but are really in China). According to the sales rep that I spoke with yesterday things are starting to get back to normal for production but I do think the virus is for sure a factor in production of any dresses really!

    That's exactly what I was thinking too... I know a lot of companies are having trouble with things being exported from there.

    I definitely would! There were only maybe 3-4 styles in her size and the right color that we had to choose from.

    Exactly! From what I was told by a customer service rep that the workers are returning to work in the next week. Hopefully it starts getting better soon, because I'm a bit nervous having my girls order dresses now. I don't want anyone to get sick, especially since one of my girls is starting to try to get pregnant. I guess for me I'm like I still have a bit of time if I need to change but would need to do so pretty soon.

    Girl I ordered my Wedding dress from a different Retailer in Hiram. Ga and my dress is still on back order since January. To which I haven't received it yet to this day. They said they have prom dresses delivered but not mine. So freaking frustrated. And our Wedding isn't till Next yr. But I did put a deposit down. So we will see.

    My wedding is May 30 and we went 2 weekends ago to get dresses and also ran into this! Two of the girls aren't supposed to get their dresses until beginning of May! Definitely stressful

    Omg we went last night and they didn't have the dresses for my girls in store. So we ordered them online. Like you they said June 8th luckily we were able to get an override code. So now they'll be in may 27th. Im super nervous because we're getting married June 6th!

    That is crazy! I'm so glad you were able to get the override. Will any of them need alterations??

    Hey what was your color? I am a little nervous now because I was actually told the opposite a few weeks ago and 3 of my bridesmaids have gotten their dresses in a little over a month. They told me that Wine was a popular color so they try to keep those in stock.

    So color may play a factor... I hope everything works out! Smiley smile

    The color is Portobello. I'm sure that had a part in it! But I'd already bought her shoes that were color matched and planned everything around it so just she found a different dress style! Lol

    That’s unfortunately so normal for David’s Bridal. That’s why it’s suggested to go no less then 6 months out! Most my girls dresses came in 3 months, besides on that came in about 6 weeks.
