And she did a reasonable job? Or have you not seen the end result yet?

 

That is an excellent price. Do you think you could find someone in Calgary, Canada for me?!

[destinationbride07]

i have not seen the results but I think it will be fine...i originally went to them looking for a gown and they make a lot of dresses that were nice.... so I went back to them for alterations b/c i liked their dressmaking work...i honestly thought they were going to be expensive...i was thinking about cancelling but I am glad I did not...

 

if it comes back shabby i will let you know lol

That is a great price. I look forward to hearing about the results.

A bustle? I know I should know exactly what that means, but I don't.

[destinationbride07]

It is the thing to put your train up in the back....I think it is a thing lol...dont worry I did not know what it was until I started planning my wedding

Great find, Sherri! What a great deal....I think I need to move to the mid-west for alterations!

destinationbride07, did you get your dress back? How did the alterations come out?

I'm in Chicago. I'm actually working with a seamstress to design and make my dress..... she is also very reasonable. For a dress that I wanted to copy, lazaro, mermaid style, silk with swarowski beads shes charging me $1100 vs. $3800 for the one I wanted.

 

She will work with any budget. Here is her info:

I bought my dress at Eva's over the weekend and dress alterations there are 250 (almost half of what I paid for the dress).

they did an excellent JOB! especially around the chest area (it was so big)....bustle looks nice...now all all i need to do is GET TO HAWAII!
