Hi All
I have booked an appointment to go to Candy Anthony tomorrow. These are the style of dresses I always wanted but also have a full length Paloma Blanca in mind so I'll be making a dress desicion based on my appointment tomorrow.
Anyone have experience of Candy Anthony? What should I expect? I know the dresses are expensive - did anyone manage to negotiate on price at all?
Very excited!
Thanks ladies.
Had a lovely day out in London with my Mum. Went to Candy Anthony and fell in love with a dress! It's a white tea length, sweetheart neck line, ivory polka dot overlay, raspberry sash and four layer raspberry petticoat. Also going for a bolero for the ceremony which I will take off during the meal/reception. Also tried on a birdcage veil and a shoulder length one which I am yet to decide on.
They are soooooo helpful and friendly in the shop. What I really liked is the advice they give. They really know their stuff re what suits your body shape/colours etc.
The only thing I'm not keen on is the price - did manage to negotiate 10% discount but still looking at around £2,000 for the dress, sash, petticoat and bolero. This is the price for 'made to order' rather than 'made to measure'. I am on a diet and hope to lose a good dress size before the wedding but they seem to think that ordering a basic size - hopefully a 12 will fit me just fine. I am reluctant to pay this amount of money but I just can't imagine getting amrried in anything but Candy Anthony. Even Mum who saw me try on other tea lengths and didn't think they were very 'weddingy' has been converted and absolutely loves it!
