The Coronavirus and wedding dresses. Some may think these two have nothing to do with each other, but that's not the case.
"A lot of our factories and all of our dresses are mainly produced overseas. We have a few select brands that are actually manufactured and produced here in the United States. Still, the majority are produced overseas in China," says the manager for Audra's Bridal, Frankie Stone.
Stone says it's not only her store which can be affected by the virus.
"Mainly, the entire bridal industry," says Stone.
But, when it comes to a wedding dress shortage, Stone doesn't see it happening anytime soon.
"Our manufactures and vendors and designers have given us promises that it won't happen," says Stone.
Stone says some of their current vendors have factories and warehouses in the United States, which is another reason they aren't concerned about the virus.
