My fiancé and I currently live in California. We are both transplants from the East Coast and will be having our wedding in NJ (since that is where 90% of our family is located).
I am trying to figure out if it be easier to purchase my dress in the NY/NJ area or out here in California.
We do travel back east about 3-4 times a year, so not worried about traveling to find a dress.. I am more worried on the alteration aspect. I am nervous that it might become too stressful to travel back for alterations (who knows how many!)
Has as anyone else been in this situation? What would you recommend?
