Bridal Store Vent LONG ....UPDATE AGAIN

Okay girls, so I bought my dress from the dreaded Heart To Heart Bridal store and I am paying for it now. With 4 weeks left to go I went into the store for my last fitting. For some reason, my bustier was not fitting right under my dress. The seamstress started messing with it, pinning it and whatnot and basically just made everything worse. The final result was taking my garters of my bustier to see if that made it better. I was so not happy but my dress looked horrible so I was ready to try anything.

So I go back 2 weeks later (now with only 2 weeks to go) and try it on...my bustier is a 32B (I usually wear a 34 but this sits a little lower and we needed it a little more snug) but trust me I am no smaller than that. The seamstress for some unknown reason to me has decided to take it upon herself to take in my bustier an inch on either side!!! So now I have huge rolls over my hips where none exsisted before!!! So I am getting pretty pissed. And then to top it off, I pulled up my dress (to where I now know it's supposed to sit) and low and behold everything fits great now!!!!! Except my bustier now with no garters.

I wanted the first time I ever wore garters to be on my wedding day and I spent a fair chunk of change on this thing, so I asked them to fix it and put the garters back on but the seamstress has already disposed of my garters and no can do.

To make it worse, I paid for all my alterations ahead of time (a hem and maybe taking it out in the chest area) but I had to pay for it ahead of time. Now the seamstress is trying to say that she made alterations to my dress that I know for a fact was never made to the dress.

So now they are telling me they can't fix my bustier and trying to make me pay for alterations that were never done!!!!

Not to mention when my dress is now sitting properly on my body it falls down and no longer fits me properly. So now on my wedding day, once my dress is on, I now have to pin my dress to my bustier in order to make it fit properly.

Am I wrong in being completely pissed and what should do/say when the owner calls me tommorow???? I want this fixed and I want it fixed now!
