Ladies, the store I bought my dress from only has 2 alterations packages, one that is 600 and one that is 800. I think this is outrageous to take in a few seams and shorten the dress if needed, and hopefully add some buttons over the zipper. My question is, did you stick with the store you bought your dress from for alterations, or do you think a highly rated seamstress who specializes in wedding dresses (there's one down the street from my house, yay!) would be a good alternative. My fear is that I go through someone else and my dress will get ruined.
