Alterations

Hi All...has anyone gotten their alterations done at a bridal boutique? Just trying to figure out how much I should plan on spending on those.

  • Thanks so much for your help guys. The sample fit me perfectly, so I"m interested to see how they try to finagle money out of me for the alterations.

  • I did mine at the bridal boutique and had mixed results.  I wanted them to do it since they work on wedding gowns all the time, BUT it was $500 (ugh!) and we let the dress out and then took it in several times. 
  • the bridal shop i bought my dress at charged me $400 for alterations (I almost had a stroke when she totalled it up). WAY more than i had expected to pay, but i new that my dress would come out PERFECT, as the seamstress had done alterations on the same dress numerous tiems before. (there's a lot of lace detailing, so she had to be super attentive)
