Hi Lisa,

 

Another Canadian member who ordered from Gianinar said that they delivered it via TNT from China and it arrived at her door by UPS. She said she got a bill from TNT for $25 and that was it. Shipping was very fast.

 

Mine is in alteration stages then they'll be sending it to me in Ontario. I will definetly post here what (if any) the additional postage costs are for me, but I don't expect mine for another month or so. :)

Thanks Bree

 

I am in Brampton. i think i am going with Monica Bridal as I has sent an email to Gianinar and they took too long to respond. Also Monica Bridal was cheaper. The only thing i am worried about is they ship via ems which sometimes looses packages but my wedding is not till next april so i should be ok if something were to go wrong and i wanted to order the original!

Yes, I have heard that EMS is not as reliable, but it is delivered by Canada Post once it gets here - so atleast you don't have to worry about some ridiculous brokerage fees. UPS has the WORST brokerage fees - I'm crossing my fingers.

The veil costed around $40-$50, it is a 4-5 meters long mantilla veil with the same lace and beadings as my dress.  I didn't pay any taxes and duty ( I think the custom randomly picks which package to check and charge).  It took 4 biz days to ship from China to Montreal and the dressmaker tracked it.  I had it sent to my parents' place, and I didn't know it arrived until the dressmaker told me over the chat that someone called "Ming" (my dad) signed for the package.

Thanks ladies! i guess I will be crossing my fingers that they don't check my package! Ah well for the cost of the dress i guess it is not a big deal really.

Mocha I am going to be ordering my dress soon and apparently it only takes like 10days to make and then another 5 to ship so if you aren't in a hurry i will let you know how it looks when i get it. So far the communication and service has been outstanding. They have this chat thing where you can talk to them immediately. Must easier than through email i think! And if I am hesitant at all about the dress i am just going to order the original, use the cheap one as the TTD and sell the original after to try and get some money back.

That sounds like a great idea Lisadias. Please let me know as soon as you receive your package. Also, I order a lot of tech stuff from China, and they usually mark it as a gift with no value in order to avoid custom fees. I usually track my packages and am always amazed at how quickly they arrive.

 

I'm going to a Maggie Sottero trunk show this weekend, so hopefully I find the dress of my dreams. I don't think I will tell anyone, my mom included, that it is a mail order dress.

And I bet no one will even know the difference!! I spoke with Monica Bridal again this morning and sent over all my details including measurements. They are including a petticoat to give the a-line effect of the dress and sending me a veil as a present. It mostly has appliques and lacing on it so it probably won't match my dress but I can always add beading to it after if i want. Not sure if I even want a veil either as i have a tiara that my friend gave me to wear and i really like the idea of a flower on the side where the hair is pulled back. I am going to pay for the dress shortly but I am just waiting for the dollar to go up a bit as it took a nose dive in the last week

I saw your post on bestdestinationwedding.com - I actually purchased the knock-off dress you posted on the right (Maggie Sottero) from a maker in China.  When it arrived, it was BEAUTIFUL, but way too small for me.  My fault, I sent a size request rather than measurements.  Anyway, it is hanging in my closet and I ordered another one from the same maker, different style.  Would be interested in selling the first one, just for what it cost me ($120).  It's a US size 12 if you can make that work...let me know if you are interested!  

 

Thanks!

 

Brenda
