Alterations?? How much does it cost?

Just curious. I received a price of $200 to hem the dress and the bustle. Is that the normal price? If anyone can recommend someone that is good and cheaper please let me now :)

Re: Alterations?? How much does it cost?

I just had them done at Paradise bridal..yes the alterations are capped at $150 however they don't consider the bustle an "alteration"...so the hem was $100 and each loop of the bustle was $10...
