Question about david's bridal special order shipping

Chelsea, on March 4, 2021 at 8:21 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 7
Hello! I ordered a wedding dress recently but I was told it had to be specially ordered and would take longer to be delivered. I was first told closer to mid June, but then my email confirmation had an even later date of the end of June. My wedding will be in July, but the seamstress told me I could do a rush order to have the dress in time. But I'm still worried about the time and would rather it be here way before then. Has anyone had experience with a special order from david's bridal? I think it's only special order because it's newer, I'm not requesting a crazy color or length. Am I being too hopeful in thinking it might arrive before then? I was told that was just the latest date, but I'm wondering if I should pick a different dress instead

    Not sure about wedding dress, but I ordered bridesmaids dresses from them and they arrived a lot sooner than expected, about 2 weeks earlier.

    Hi Chelsea! It's so hard to say!!

    Before Covid-19, I always heard that David's Bridal dresses got in even faster than their expected arrival and were consistently early. But in the last year we've seen delays on everything - including wedding dresses! If you're able to pay extra for rush shipping & production I think that would be wise!

    That's true!! I am worried with covid. I ordered a sash online from their website and am going to see how long that takes to get to me. I did ask if I can pay to expedite my dress and was only told that the date they estimated is the only thing they can give me. I was thinking of trying to call the store in a month and asking if I can pay for rush shipping then, maybe it will be more possible when it's a little closer

    You're welcome. Oh and I should say this was just last month, so very recently!

    Hi again 😊 I just wanted to give an update in case anybody finds this later and is curious! My dress did come in much earlier than when they said! It only ended up taking about a month!! I didn't receive an email though, or maybe I picked it up before they sent the email. But I was able to check the status by texting their automated number and found out it was available for pick-up! Thanks everyone for the advice
