Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

Ours were $135 + alterations.

I think you can find beautiful dresses that are still reasonable. No need to spend an arm & a leg.

My girls dresses are $160+Alterations. They are AFter SIx dresses. I originally liked dresses taht were like $300+. But I felt tahtw as just too mcuh money to ask everyone to pay. Plus you have to think they have to get the shoes, handbag,alterations, undergarmentst hair makeup.....

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

Mine were a little pricey but after the discount they will be about $200-225. That's much better than $330! And that doesn't include alterations! Although the girls' all said they didn't mind. But I did black so they are happier with that!

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

Mine were $184 which I thought was great.

However, I also spent that much on my two Flower Girls, which I thought was a lot considering my girls aren't even two feet tall.

I need to change careers!!!

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

I am getting seperates, so every girls top is a different price ranging from $110-$85 and the bottom is $80. So between $190-$160. Alterations are capped at $65.

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

The total is $220 (that is with tax and I added straps and a shawl to the dress). There is no charge for alternations.

My BM were $110 and my Jr. BM were $128. That does not include alterations. I'm in a wedding in July and those were $140 not including alterations.

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

My girls dresses were about $150 at the salon but they got them from Bridalmarketplace for about $98. I'm going to be in my FSIL's wedding in August and that dress is about $145

Re: HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH

The dresses I picked out for my BM were $170 at the bridal salon but we ordered from RK Bridal in the city for something like $100 or $110. As for shoes, I am letting them wear whatever they want, and I will be buying the necklaces as my gifts to them. I'm trying to minimize how much money anyone has to spend (including me) for the wedding - everything is so expensive!
