David Bridals question. about a bridesmaid dress.....?

Question

I ordered my bridesmaid dress in size 10 at David Bridal, but I lost a lot of weight and it doesn't fit me now. It is too late for alterations...do you think they would let me exchange for a size 8 off the rack. Are those dresses for sale? Anyone done this before? I feel stupid calling if this is not the case.

Answer 1

It has been my experience that Davids is pretty good at being flexible. I was a bridesmaid while I was pregnant and another bridesmaid was nursing, so we wanted to make sure that they would be flexible.

As long as you have a receipt, I don't see a reason that they couldn't exchange it for a size 8 providing they have one in stock. If they don't have one in stock, you can ask them to check other stores and have one sent to that store. I have also had to track down a dresses of a certain shade and size for a bride and I had a good experience in wrangling them.

It also can depend on the individual store employees and manager about how cooperative they can be. Good luck & congrats on the weight loss!

Answer 2

Relax. This happens to a lot of people. Give them a call to do alterations, or take it to a local shop and have it done if they want to charge you too much to do it there.

Answer 3

Call and ask...the worst that's going to happen is they will say no, but it's worth a shot, right? If they won't, see if there is a place nearby that can do fast alterations.

Answer 4

they'll let you exchange it if they have it still in your size and nothing is wrong with it. like if you have taken it in already. i've done so at a David's Bridal.

Answer 5

If you haven't worn it or altered it, then there shouldn't be a problem. :)

Answer 6

just call them it probably has happen before
