Original post by laborday06

Just wondering what most people spent on their gowns including alterations and veil?

my dress was 800 originally, but was on sale for 650, the only alteration i need is the bustle and this was quoted at 85. my real splurge was the tiara in reality at 250. so total i will have spent just over 1000 on my entire outfit for the day, but that includes EVERYTHING i'll be wearing (except jewelry)!

I definitely had Bridal Brain when I bought my dress. Over $3K and the alterations are coming out around $600.
FI is cool about it, he said I should spoil myself, but I feel like I should have shopped around a little more.

My dress was under $1000 before alterations....My MOH was shocked that it didn't cost more...I love it!

My head piece was $225...and I kicked myself for finding it on a website for much cheaper after I bought it..Oh well

When all is said and done (shoes, veil, dress, alt, undergarments, etc) I'd say about $2000!

A little over $900 for the dress. Veil is free from a friend who never used it including a pearl and crystal comb. Alterations will be done by a friend's aunt so maybe $100.

i was VERY lucky-- i told myself that i would try on without looking at prices and whatever it was, i would make it work if i really loved the gown...

when i fell in love with a certain gown i was afraid to look at the price but when i did i was shocked to find that it was only around $1600 retail!! i was able to then get it from Burton's for only $1000 total after tax and alterations!!
