    • ]]>     http://theweddingshoppe.net/twitter-updates-for-2010-07-21/feed/ 0     How will the Chinese labor shortage affect you? http://theweddingshoppe.net/how-will-the-chinese-labor-shortage-affect-you/ http://theweddingshoppe.net/how-will-the-chinese-labor-shortage-affect-you/#comments Tue, 20 Jul 2010 23:12:44 +0000 WeddingShoppe http://theweddingshoppe.net/?p=365 Have you heard about the problems in China?
    Is your gown running late?
    Are you waiting to order your gown until next year?

    You are probably wondering how problems in China can possibly affect your wedding plans. Well, if you have ordered your gown and it’s running late, YOU ARE AFFECTED. If you are waiting to order until closer to your wedding date, YOU WILL BE AFFECTED. I hate to break it to you this way – but almost ALL bridal gowns and fabrics are produced in China. The companies may be based in the US, but the gowns are not made here.

    Due to a combination of factors (labor shortages, workers demanding higher pay/better working conditions and stricter scrutiny at US Customs) gowns are running behind from most manufacturers. In fact, these companies are no longer accepting RUSH orders for gowns.

    If you are waiting to order until closer to your wedding you will have longer delivery times and most importantly your gown is going to cost more. We are beginning to receive letters from our manufacturers stating the price of goods out of China are going to increase 20 – 30% as soon as August 1st.

    Weddings are stressful enough…don’t delay in ordering your gown. There is no need for you to pay more or be needlessly worried about it’s delivery. I’ve included some links to articles regarding the situation in China.

    If you ordered your gown from The Wedding Shoppe I want you to know that we are tracking our orders
    diligently. These issues are affecting all bridal salons and almost every manufacturer.
