I ordered 3 BM dresses from Pearl's Place in early June. When I called 2 weeks ago to find out an estimated delivery date, they told me to call back this week as the dresses would likely come in this week or in the first part of September. When I saw the calendar reminder to call Pearl's Place on Monday, I remembered they are in Metairie, Lousiana, and may have experienced serious storm damage. They are not answering their phone and their website is down. If my dress were at the store, they may have been destroyed, but it is possible the manufacturer had not shipped them the dresses yet. Even if the dresses were not there, I do not know how I will get them if Pearl's Place remains closed. The dresses take 12 weeks to order and my wedding is in 8 weeks and the girls need time to get alterations. I feel horrible even thinking about this, given the devastation the storm has caused, but I need to figure out if I have to try to buy something off the rack.
Does anyone out there have news on Pearl's Place. I don't know if I can convince the manufacturer to send me the dresses directly -- I know there were problems with this when DBS went bankrupt.
