Unfortunately it’s going to take time for everything to get resolved with the issues resulting in the recent bridal store closing. Be sure to save every receipt and document. Make notes of everything, even if you think it may not be pertinent to your situation. I’m not an authority on the legal stuff, but it only makes sense that the more information you can provide the more prepared you’ll be when the time comes to collect on your losses. Don’t forget, “Your losses are more than financial”. Talk to the authorities and a person with legal knowledge so you know what steps need to be taken. After all you’ve been through you certainly don’t want to miss the boat.
I really do plan on getting back to my normal every day blogs. I just felt the need to share with you what I’ve learned about brides and people in the past week of mayhem.
In all of the brides I worked with I saw courage, strength, patience and gratitude. This shined over the anger, confusion and the unknown which indicates to me that they are getting married for the right reasons. I wasn’t sure what to expect so that was a refreshing experience.
I commend all who are taking part in the process of helping these unfortunate brides. I mostly want to commend the families and friends who stepped up to the plate to help the bride sort through all of the nonsense. Some helped with making phone calls while others chipped in to help financially. The moral support was phenomenal.
I know it’s not over yet for all you brides but hang in there, as long as you stay focused on what’s important everything will work out. Don’t let this destroy something as sacred and beautiful as a marriage.
