So my wedding dress needs hemmed, I was planning on going back to Davids Bridal where I bought it (and still might) and I was surprised to get a quote of $200 for just hemming.. I've read the average is $25-$100 so it seems steep. A friend of mine, not a professional has offered to do it - should I take the offer or leave it to a professional?
I know nothing about alterations, so I'm like.. okay, is this something that if they make a small mistake could look like crap or is it a fairly simple thing where mistakes can be easily covered? Would of course rather pay the money for it to look great but wasn't sure if a hem was worth having a professional do it.
