Additional Notes 

1.  Bridal parties of 4 or more should allow for additional fitting time.

2.  20% will be added for rush orders that need to be finished within a 2 week time frame.

3.  Please call, leave a voice mail, or e-mail if you cannot keep an appointment.

4.  I work part-time out of my home to reduce costs.  If it is convenient for you, I make house calls for the first fitting within a 30-mile range.  Second and third fittings are done at my home.
