Rena Koh BEWARE
Beware of Rena Koh gowns. I know a few brides whose wedding are in the May and June and their gowns arent in yet and may not be in at all!! I found out through a friend in the business the Rena koh is not shipping ANY gowns to the U.S. Stores beciase of money problems with the U.S. Distributor in florida!! SO if you girls have ordered a Rena Koh gown, check with your shop and plan on a 2nd choice if your wedding is soon.

Tina,
Did you read the "Agreement Terms" on that website before you posted this information?
I`m a manager--for a chain, (i`m sure you can all guess who.) But, I also worked for a small store for 5 years. It is not an easy industry.
The meaning of that website is for small shop owners to be able to network and HELP the customer, not decieve them.
Example:
A bride is in love with a gown, and cannot bear the thought of wearing anything else...why not give her the OPTION of a store sample? If it is in good condition--and small shops pride themselves in keeping their stock pristine--the bride may be satisfied and even grateful that the owner and staff cared enough to lose sleep (and money) to get her the dress of her dreams.
You are acting as though every shop, private or nationwide, is trying to lie to brides. Are some? Probably.. But not ALL!!
Do you realize that you broke a trust with the shop you work for? Does that matter? It is all over the internet about Rena Koh. You did not need to send people to a website that is not intended for them. When they can`t get in, they panic even more.
And even though I am in the industry, that site is not intended for my eyes either. So I left without even trying to enter.
My advice, call the shop you are dealing with. They are probably just as concerned as you are, if not more.
Good luck to you all!
