I was on a time limit, but my wedding dress was complete within a week, which was awesome. But the work done left evidence of the time spent. The hem was fine. The bustle was off center and loosely put together, “letting out the bust” meant leaving the inside of the seam on my left side completely open. There was a tear in the tulle pretty far down the side. There was a staple stuck and twisted in the tulle that left permanent lines throughout the dress. Tulle was taken out of the under layers of the dress from the bustle being added in that’s kind of noticeable.
