In light of the recent Alfred Angelo store closures due to filing for bankruptcy, manufacturers across the country are lending a helping hand to ensure brides get to walk down the aisle in the dress of their dreams. Maybe you're a bride who has the big day quickly approaching and were waiting for your Alfred Angelo gown to arrive or your entire bridal party just ordered their bridesmaid dresses and you have no idea what the status of the orders are. Either way, here are businesses that are offering to help.
We'll continue to update this list as we get information, so keep checking back! In the meantime, if you paid for your Alfred Angelo gown with a credit card, you can call the credit card company to dispute the charge. Also, visit your local bridal salon to see if they're offering any specials for brides who were affected. Just be sure to bring your Alfred Angelo receipt with you!
