Has anyone ordered from TopBridalDresses.com

There is a lot of talk about Landy on this site and many people have used their services and I am going to order my wedding dress from them. Top Bridal seems similar to Landy.
I found the perfect bridesmaids dresses from TopBridalDresses.com and I haven't really seen anyone comment on the quality of their work and deliveries etc.
Anyone got experiences with them??

thanks

    I think it's like everything else. Most people wouldn't have heard of Linda Davey (lol) but still come to me. :D With many places, you get the good with the bad. Some are happy, some are not.
    If you've seen something you like then go for it.
  • The price of the dresses on TopBridal is very reasonable. It can save us a lot of money.
    That's really nice!!!

    Well, I took the plunge because I couldn't find any other dresses in the colour that I want and style my bridesmaids would like and that aren't made of satin (I don't particularly like the material). I know I've taken a bit of a risk but I only ordered 1 now and if that comes in with no problems I will order 2 more, which is fine because I need to wait until a bit closer to my wedding anyway as one of my bridesmaids is my 12 year old niece who likes to grow a lot every month. And second bridesmaid is a friend who is trying for baby number 2. So here's fingers crossed.........

    Hi Chelbel. I received the dress today so very pleased with quick delivery - it only took a month instead of 2 I thought it was going to be. The dress looks lovely, I am not an expert but the seams seem straight and there is nothing missing as far as I can see. However I do have 2 points to crumble about
    - well first one is really just personal taste. The dress is made of chiffon, which is great however the lining is very very shiny satin which is not a problem really but I took a photo of the dress to show my bridesmaid and the satin shines through the chiffon on the dress. I will have to see what it's like in daylight
    - second point is slightly more serious because as I was showing the dress to my friend I got stuck by a pin that had been left into the corset part. I am now trying to think of ways to get it out as I don't particularly want to make pin marks on my bridesmaid but it looks like I will have to open a seam somewhere and while I am not a seamstress and do not even own a sewing machine, I am unsure how to fix it.
    But other than that as I said, dress looks perfect. And the colour is exactly as I wanted it.

    Pretty common occurance. Chiffon isn't really regarded as the fashion fabric, simply an overlay. So there will be the need to have a substantial fabbric behind this. (Mainly to set the chiffon off)

    Bit of a major problem here. Not the removal of the pin, but the fact it's been left there in the first place!!

    Has anyone apart from the spammers and kairi ordered from them, and had their dresses back. I have ordered, and felt like I have taken a chance - but it will be a 2 month wait to find out. Anyone?
