How much are you paying for alterations?

How much are you paying for alterations?

Bridal Reflections charges a $395 flat fee and then another $95-295 for the bustle.

This price seems steep to me but I'm not sure.

Just wondering who everyone else is using.

I don't want to ruin my dress but do you know of any seamstresses that specialize in wedding gowns?

$400 unlimited alterations (so if I gain/lose after they start altering the dress, they will still do more alterations) and it includes any bustle I want.

The did give a better price on the dress so all told the alterations are $200 instead of $400.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?

I am not sure how much mine will be but from what I understand, there is no cap. I am hoping to not go over $350.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?

I paid $0 for my alterations at a store in Brooklyn. They are very reasonable and are not trying to nickel and dime you. so many of my friends go their dresses there and BM dresses. I love them.
