Hi all. I'm getting married in September 2017, and i found the most perfect dress at Davids bridal online during a sale. I received it, and it will be absolutely prefect after some taking in. I'm also looking to have a trim sew on the bottom of the dress to personalize it a bit. I'm just wondering what's the average cost one should expect to spend on dress alterations. I won't have my fittings for quite some time from now.

It is costing me about $200 to add cups, take in the top and the sides a bit, and a bustle. I purposely bought heels the perfect height so I wouldn't have to get it hemmed. Getting it hemmed costs the most from what I've been told.

I paid for $420 for cups, sides taken in, hem, and bustle. I have a lace finished hem, so that was pricey.

$90 for bottom hem, cups sewn in and a bustle.
I have no lace or beadwork to the dress, and I took it to a local seamstress so that lowered the cost significantly.
Davids Bridal tends to cost more than local places, so shop around for prices and reviews.
