The coronavirus is disrupting supply chains across the globe, but the largest U.S. bridal retailer vows that it won’t lead to cancellations of spring and summer weddings.
“We know how stressful a delayed order can be to a bride, so I’m here to unequivocally say that every customer will have the dress of her dreams in time, before her event date,” said Jim Marcum, CEO of David’s Bridal, which got its start in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in the 1950s.
80 percent of wedding gowns, as well as laces and trims, are produced in China, according to CNN Business. With factory and transportation disruptions in Asia, that could lead to serious logistical challenges for 2020 brides-to-be.
