This company will do anything to get your custom. The lady is pushy and tries to make out she's better than everyone else. It's overpriced and quite frankly average quality. Her bows are a complete mess having been into her premises we saw first hand what you will be receiving. I'm glad we had a good look prior to blind booking!!! All brides/grooms beware!
