Re: How much did you pay for your gown?

Didn't want to spend too much since

A) my mom was paying for it
and
B) I am only wearing it for 1 day

These polls are cool!!!

750.00 for the gown, 200.00 for the veil, 75.00 for the shoes, and 65.00 for the crinolion, and alterations will be about 600.00, and the shawl is 75.00 .I have lost a lot of weight since I bought the gown- 63 pounds. So the total will be with everything.... $1625.00.

Re: How much did you pay for your gown?

My dress is $1300 and change and the mantilla is $400.

eta: It hasn't come in yet so I don't know what the alterations will be but I believe they're capped at $150 - including the bustle. It was a hallow-to-hem measurement so the alterations will be in the waist and bust area.
