Owner is so rude

The owner of Gowns and Garters ruins this place. She is extremely rude and I don’t think she even cares about her customers.

I must say the other lady who just works in the shop is lovely. Absolutely lovely.

The owner Julie was rude when I asked about alterations, I couldn’t make the ONLY date she could do. So I was told I’m not so many words to fetch the dress. When I didn’t reply as I was busy she called me asking when I was going to fetch the dress. Her emails were so rude and I was just glad to have gone and picked the dress up and keep it at home.

I wouldn’t recommend this shop based on my experience.
