I found my dress over the weekend at Davids Bridal.. I hope I chose the right one..but I need to bring it in maybe 1 or 2 sizes down, and its also toooo long..I just ordered my shoes online and Im gonna wait until I get them to go do the alterations , they play a HUGE role since im sooo tiny, but I need an idea of how much they usually charge... Please let me know what to expect... Thanx

Re: What is the average charge for gown alterations??
every place charges a different amount, you should call Davids Bridal and ask them what they charge and if they have a cap on alterations.

Re: What is the average charge for gown alterations??
from what i unerstand, and i could very well be wrong, Davids Bridal has a set price list for each type of alteration that needs to be made...don't know if they have an alterations cap.
if you don't like their prices or the quality of their alterations, you might want to search for a seamstress. here are a few i've found so far:
Sarina & Son, Inc. 7009 Austin Street Suite 2 Forest Hills, NY 11375 (718) 263-0461 (718) 263-3451 (Was used by Songstress)
Christine’s Alterations & Tlrs 3801 Hempstead Tpke (betw Bethpage Tpk and Berger Ave) Levittown, NY 11756 (516) 796-5866 (Was used by LauraD419)
Gloria's Alterations 281 Hillside Ave, Williston Park, NY (516) 739-1669 (Recommended by mcclj74)
Lina Wantagh Ave. in Wantagh 516-679-9408 (recommended by Lyssiegrl)
Phyllis Limmer Bridal Elegance 1870 E. Jericho Tpke. Dix Hills, NY (recommended by numerous past brides)

WOW those are expensive my cap is $175. The bustle is extra though.
