Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
I paid close to $200 at David's Bridal but they were a nightmare to deal with, as you may have read. I had it hemmed, bustled, let out and had cups put in.

$220 for me and $40 for my daugher. Mainly in the height for me and only the shoulder for my daughter.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
Mine were around 300, maybe 350, I forget already. But she took it in, hemmed it, did the bustle (which I HATED)...I forget what else...

They were capped at $150 for a bustle, hemming, and taking in the bust alittle.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
My max was $225 plus $10 per point for the bustle, when I went for my first fitting she said it would be $190 plus an extra $70 for the 7 points that I need for the bustle, it could have been worse. They had to cut 3 inches off the bottom, and take the top in a little because my chest isn't very large.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
my total was $499. They had to do the chest area, a hem, a french bustle and it included cups for the boobs and a slip. I thought it was crazy money, but what could I do. This is at commack wedding center. I think I might have done better else where

I paid $95 for my alterations. That includes taking in the top, waist and hips. The french bustle cost me an additional $295, so $390 all together.

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
I had to pay $350 no matter what. I really had no alterations done - they added cups and took the dress up about an inch. Not happy about it but is was policy from the start

I think mine are capped at $300 but it's $250 right now, mostly for the bustle and adding on a halter to the dress

Re: How much are you paying for alterations?
Mine was about $650, and I am so unhappy with the way the seamstress is doing my alterations!
