Kate's Wedding Dress

Here's a first look at Kate's wedding dress.

2011 Maggie Sottero Price Increase

As we mentioned in the last posting, Maggie Sottero is taking a hefty price increase. They have finally announced the price increase. The increase is a combination of price increase and new MSRP policies by the wedding dress designer. The increase will range from $100 to upwards of $300. The new price policy will be in effect as of Thursday, April 7, 2011. This means you have to order your wedding gown by no later than 8 p.m. on Thursday, April 7, 2011 in order for us to process your order and submit it before the price increase.

Remember, we have great prices but if you find it cheaper elsewhere, let us know and we'll match it according to our price match policy.

Maggie Sottero Price Increase - Spring 2011

Maggie Sottero is suppose to be announcing a new price increase on all her wedding gowns. The price increase is in the approval process. We expect to receive it any day now. The new price increase combined with their new retail pricing policy will mean an increase of 10-25% on her wedding dresses across Canada. That's anywhere from a $100 to $400 price increase! It's hefty. If you are in love with a Maggie Sottero dress or love her styles, you may want to make a decision and buy it soon. We really don't know when the implementation will take place but it's soon. Please be warn that once the effective date of the new price kicks in, we will not be able to honour the old prices.

So don't wait.
