Where did everyone get their wedding dresses!? And if its not too much to ask how much were they? I already bought mine but thinking about how much hurts my soul, even though I did a payment plan, it’s still a huge investment and i still have alterations to pay for up front... wondering if i should...
Where did everyone get their wedding dresses!? And if its not too much to ask how much were they? I already bought mine but thinking about how much hurts my soul, even though I did a payment plan, it’s still a huge investment and i still have alterations to pay for up front... wondering if i should have looked harder and for cheaper options....
also, i live in Las Vegas, you would think I had oodles of options but every place I went was insane and same prices. So I just found one at Davids Bridal and called it good (still expensive as hell). Its beautiful but still needs work for it to be MY dress and it was the second one i ordered because I am THAT indecisive bride . *facepalm*

    I got mine second-hand on Poshmark for $130, however I bought two other dresses off Poshmark to find the one so cost total including rejected dresses is closer to $250.

    I got my dress on sale at David's Bridal for $599 it was originally $899 and also had them do alterations and that was another $560 that I had to pay at the first fitting. I would recommend going somewhere other than David's to get your dress altered!

    I had to travel out of town to get mine at a bridal boutique in Walnut Creek near San Jose; it cost my daddy about $1,800 with taxes.

    Got mine at David’s Bridal. It’s an Oleg Cassini and was $1,500 and I got my alterations done by a family friend. My veil on amazon. But the dress did hurt our credit card for a few months lol

    I shopped a few local boutiques and found one i loved before my appointment at david's so i canceled that. a family member offered to pay for my dress and their budget was $1000, so I did not even try on dresses that were above that. I think mine ended up being $850, and then another $150ish for a few alterations.

    I'm no help because I found mine at salvation army for $30 and am having it altered to fit in October by a friend who makes dresses but couldn't come in time to make mine from scratch.

    I got mine at a boutique outside Philly for $1700. It was the sample and fit like a glove so fingers crossed for no insane alteration prices

    I drove about an hour away for my dress to attend a sottero and midgley trunk show. My aunt paid for it, but it cost 1549. With the trunk show discount I believe it came to something like 1379.
