Argh, crystals missing from veil

Grr, I'm so annoyed.

I just brought my veil in to get steamed at the dry cleaners this morning. I waited until today because I didn't want it to get wrinkled before the wedding. I'm getting married this saturday, 1 day away!

When I took the veil out of the bag at the cleaners (which I haven't touched since I picked it up from the store) we found about a 1 inch area where the crystals going around the bottom of the veil are missing!!

I didn't notice it when I picked it up but can't see how it would have happened just sitting in the bag.

Any suggestions on how I can fix it or at least somehow stop it from getting any worse??

Re: Argh, crystals missing from veil

Can you take it to the shop you bought it from? Can you get crystals (fake) that look somewhat like them, and add a few more?

Re: Argh, crystals missing from veil

I got it from David's Bridals over 3 months ago, and I know they say that 'all sales are final'

I can probably fix it, but I don't want to mess with it. I'll probably try to just knot off the string where they were falling from to stop it from happening any further, I just don't know the best way to do it.

I wish I had noticed it sooner. I'm getting married in less then 2 days and barely have the time for anything with all the last minute stuff to get done, this is just another thing on my list now.

Re: Argh, crystals missing from veil

That stinks. I know you probably notice it, but I'm sure no one else with!

Sorry I'm of no help! Good Luck!

Also - CONGRATS in advance! Enjoy!

Did you try posting on the Vendors Helping Brides board to see if one of them can help you out and give some advice?
