I bought my dress over two years ago on an impulse because I loved it so much. Blush 1950's tulle, in mint condition, it fit me like a beautiful vintage glove. Erica has been nothing to exceptionally kind to me, keeping my dress in storage until we set a date which we finally did and letting me pay her in instalments when things went a little bit wrong in the planning process. I couldn't praise her enough. Thank you so much xxxxx
