Canadian brides-to-be scramble after bridal retailer files for bankruptcy
TORONTO — Margaret Perdue started bawling when she heard on the radio that the bridal retailer responsible for her wedding gown had abruptly closed its doors.
“This is how bridezillas are hatched,” said the 33-year-old Toronto resident.
“I was distraught. When you try to plan for your wedding in advance and things come crashing down, it’s a hit in the heart.”
With her wedding in October, she had already put down a $1,056 deposit on an ivory floor-length number — named after Princess Elsa from Frozen — back in May. Suddenly, Perdue found herself scrambling to find something else.
