How much did you spend on your dress?

How much did everyone's dress cost? With all the alterations and an unexpected expense (petticoat), my dress is about $1050. I think it's a bit much. This is what I get for wanting a pink dress. If I had gone the traditional route, I could've found something much cheaper. Oh well.. At least it's...

    Dress - $5,000

    Alterations - $400

    Added crinoline - $200

    Lengthened trained - $300

    Veil - free (but it was a plain chapel veil and I wanted to tie it in to my dress so I had them order the same lace as my dress from the designer and added it to the edge of my veil for about $300)

    Bustle - free (was supposed to be $50 but they ended up throwing it in for free)

    My dress was $300. Don't foresee needing alterations aside from the bustling. Haven't bought undergarments yet and don't know if I need crinoline...
