I’ve purchased my wedding dress online from overseas and I’m worried it won’t be delivered. Can I cancel my order and get a refund?
section_content: 
If a supplier has accepted payment for your wedding dress, they must supply it to you by the date they have indicated or, if no time was specified, within a reasonable timeframe.
You should first contact your supplier to ask whether the dress is still able to be delivered and, if so, when you can expect to receive it.
If the business advises that your dress can no longer be supplied, then the ACCC expects you will receive a refund or other remedy such as a credit note or voucher.
The ACCC understands that many businesses are struggling to manage supply delays at this point in time due to circumstances outside their control. We urge consumers to remain patient and anticipate that it may take longer than usual for goods to be supplied.

I want to return my (un-worn) wedding dress, shoes, bridesmaids’ dresses etc. because I no longer need them. Am I entitled to a refund for these items?
section_content: 
You are not entitled to a refund under the Australian Consumer Law if you wish to return wedding items that you have purchased but no longer require.
Under the Australian Consumer Law, you are only entitled to a remedy if your product fails to meet a consumer guarantee. The remedy you’re entitled to will depend on whether you have a major or minor problem with the product.

My wedding has been cancelled or reduced in size. Am I entitled to a refund of the deposit I’ve paid separately to other vendors for products or services I no longer need, such as my florist, photographer, live band, car hire company, etc.?
section_content: 
You should first approach the provider of each service to see if they are prepared to offer a refund or other remedy, such as credit note or voucher.
Whether you are entitled to refund of your deposit will depend on the terms and conditions of your booking with each vendor.
You may also have rights under contract law where the contract can no longer be performed.
Given the exceptional circumstances, the ACCC encourages all businesses to treat consumers fairly.
