3) If you are buying an item from the shop it is sold as seen.
4) Once you have placed an order you have 3 days (providing alterations or dry cleaning has not taken place that will render the 3 day cancellation policy nil and void) to change your mind.
5) Bridal Couture does not give cash refunds. We offer you a 12 month credit note; signed by the business owner.
6) For all orders placed the sale is considered final and therefore you are responsible for all outstanding monies.

8) There is no credit note refund on dresses that have been altered.
