I had to take a chance on ordering the dress because of my limited time available, my size and I wanted a color you can only get when ordering a dress (champagne). I am a size 16 and most of the sample wedding dresses available are size 10-12 or less. I did find a few dresses, but they were not the design I wanted and I would have to pay hundreds in alterations to have the train removed and add cap sleeves, etc. So I took a chance and emailed BridalPapa, told them that I was very wary since thet were a new company and had no reviews. They worked with me on the price where I could pay 1/2 on ordering and 1/2 after it arrived and I approved. The dress cost a total of $265 total, so at the most I would be out $132...so I took the chance. The dress arrived two weeks earlier than promised and I LOVE IT. It fits perfect, love the color and they custom made it without the train. I am very happy that I took the chance because now I have the perfect dress without having to settle or do some frantic searching at the last minute. I have to admit, it did arrive in a very small package, but the fabric they used is very nice and it can be easily steamed after I get it hemmed to the proper length for me. The workmanship is very nice and the dress was made exactly as the picture showed. I would recommend BridalPapa.com based on my experience with them.
