Anyone Adding Straps to their Dress

I think I may want to add thin straps to my dress. How much do the straps usually cost and for the additional alterations? TIA!!

My dress was strapless and I wanted to add halter straps, and change the neckline to a sweetheart neckline and there was no additional charge

you can change a dress to a sweetheart neckline? oooohhh!! I would have LOVED to do that! I guess it's too late to do that now if I already ordered it, huh?

I would call the bridal shop you ordered your dress from. If you look in my community album you'll see pics of me in the dress as a strapless straight across neckline and also of the finished product.

Re: Anyone Adding Straps to their Dress

I added straps to my dress one week before the wedding. My seamstress found them and they look like rhinestones. Most strapless dresses come with straps as an option. Good luck!

Re: Anyone Adding Straps to their Dress

I added a halter strap to my dress...my shop (in VA) made the strap to match the beading on the bodice so it cost $100 but it was perfect!!!!
