September 16th is coming up so quick !! Tomorrow morning is my dress fitting … Do you usually have to pay everything up front on your first fitting or ? How did it work for you?

    In order to be able to pick up/take home the dress I did have to make the remaining half of the payment 😅

    I paid the deposit when I first ordered the dress so I’m guessing they all have different rules. They did;however, offer payment plans so maybe they do that over with you too?😅

    I paid 50% up front for my alterations.

    It will vary from seamstress to seamstress, as I paid the full balance at my last alterations appointment (when I picked up my dress).

    If you’re having your first fitting generally they will ask for a deposit but it depends on where you go. I think I paid half at my first fitting and I’ll pay the rest when I pick up my dress

    It turns out I don’t have to pay until I pick my dress up!! Also it is only going to be 410 which I’m super happy about 🤗 I was thinking it was going to be 500+ so I was so worried

    Oh well that’s good! And $410 is such a good price. Mines costing me $750 to alter but for NY standards that’s pretty good lol

    When I had my first fitting/alterations I had to pay upfront. However I did go back for fittings to make sure that the dress was right.

    Had my dress fitting in April. They required a deposit which was half the total cost of alterations. I expected this because of the area I live in- it’s generally a higher cost of living and the shop only alters wedding dresses.
