ZERO Customer Care
I am a mother of a bride that was affected by the abrupt closing of Gretchen’s Bridal Gallery in Indiana. We purchased from the Allure Disney Collection and were so excited about the dress of my daughter’s dreams! I was given a direct contact at Allure Bridals (Eric Sellari) and he did nothing to resolve the situation! He was rude and very incompetent! He would tell me one thing to give me hope just to tell me something different the next moment! He asked me to send him proof of my daughter’s dress being paid in full and I did exactly that! He told me the proof would get them to ship the dress! He would not communicate after promising to call/email back! He then told me the receipts of proof of payment means nothing and I have to purchase the dress again! Next day, tells me he would ship the dress to a local Bridal company by end of day. The next email I received was him saying they will not release the dress until I pay the dress in full once again! He will not provide me proof of the dress not being paid to Allure! He told me via our phone conversation he could provide me an invoice of Gretchen’s Outstanding invoice! The next day said he couldn’t provide this nor proof that our dress wasn’t paid to them! We are talking $3300 not $100 or even $1000!!! They have insurance to protect their company but won’t help these girls that trusted in getting the dress of their dreams! I did not use a credit card to purchase; therefore, I can’t dispute with my credit card company!!! I am expected to pay in full a second time totaling $6600!?!?! They won’t even release my daughter’s dress until I pay in full to a different bridal boutique for a second time!!! STAY far AWAY from Allure Bridal as your dress designer if you want to have a company that is empathetic, passionate, professional, considerate, or have integrity!!!! They are NOT trustworthy in the slightest and can’t even provide proof that Gretchen’s never paid for the dress!!! My daughter and I had two news interviews and was hoping Allure would be a company with Integrity and compassion to rectify this very disheartening situation for all these beautiful Brides to be!
