Hello,
I bought the Watters Torreon dress:
http://www.watters.com/Product/WattersBrides/4041Band the place that I bought it from in Wayland recommended a seamtress across the street. She told me that the cost will be $485 to get tailored, which includes a 3 button bustle, shortening about 1-2in on the bottom and taking in the top bust area about 1in. The bra to go inside will be another $70, this is a total of $555. Is this normal? I feel like its outrageus and that I may be getting ripped off...what do you think?

I got my dress at POB. Their alterations are like $600-800! My friend got her dress there and said her 1 regret about her wedding planning was having them do her alterations. I used Fay Carraher in Billerica, and she's amazing! So sweet, and does incredible work. My alterations were under $150. I definitely highly recommend her.
Good luck!
My hubby & I rock the frock.
