    My dress was $1500. Not sure how much alterations will be, but they said since it fits me perfectly, all I'll need is a hem.

    Alterations for mine are $400, she is making some design alterations to my DB dress like detaching the satin from the lace overlay so that it lays better then adding a bustle, adding a clip so my bra straps don't peak out and then if we need a hem after the other adjustments are made, they will include that too. My dress cost about $800 with tax
