A wedding vent.

If any one of you are interested this blog entry is meant as a vent.
My little sister Krystal is engaged to be married to her love Adam on April 25, 2009. She got engaged in October of last year. We have been helping her plan her wedding and get every thing in order for her big day, I say we because my mom and other two sisters are helping as well as some of his family. We are trying to help them save money and make it as nice as possible. When we learned she was getting married all of us girls went out in Nov. 2008 to look for dresses. Miranda (the youngest sis) is the maid of honor ,Brandy (the second oldest) is a braids maid and I myself am a bridesmaid as well. She decided her colors are teal, dark blue, and amethist purple. We went into Harts to look for dresses set on finding the dress for her and dresses for us. We spent a mer 2 hours trying on dresses and she found THE one. Krystal fell in love with a dress and wanted it no questions asked. It was $950 , I know price is no concern when it's the dress , but it was a bit for me cause I can't fathom spending that kind of money on a dress you'll wear once ( I'm not a typical lady I assume). We also found our dresses as well. In the exact colors Krystal wanted so we ordered them.
We were told that they should be in on March 6th. So from November to March we have waited for our dresses. Well March 6th arrived and no call in on the dresses so Krystal called them and wondered where they could be , NO DRESSES. They told her give them 2 more weeks and they would be in. Two weeks passes and NO DRESSES. One more week passed and Krystal finally got her dress in. We took her in to try it on and it fits perfectly no alterations needed. But they lost the briads maid dresses they have no idea where they are the manufacture says they shipped them but there is no dress to be found. We are still fighting to get the dresses and we are getting closer to the big day as time counts down. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND HARTS to ANYONE that needs a dress ordered. They keep blaming everyone else for the problem and is not willing to work a deal for anything. I think they should offer at least a discount on tux's or even some money off of the dresses. How could they do this and leave so much stress on our shoulders when there was already enough stress to begin with. Wedding are alot of work yes but it would help if people would keep their word and have things come in on time. uhm.
