How much did you spend on your dress?

Around $1900 for my dress, $150 for my veil. I have no idea what alterations are going to be--I'm picking it up next week.

$1070 for the dress, approx $100 in alterations and whatever the cost will be for the bra.

added slit

added corset

and maybe lace bottom will total to almost $2,600 if I add the lace bottom

I'll be getting a Couture dress with a unique design and handmade.

Currently it's just a sketch and some raw numbers but I'm going for my first toille fitting in about a month - so excited!

The rough costs for the dress making will be around 3.798 USD (fabrics excluded) but I always wanted to have a Couture dress noone else would ever have. I don't have to pay for alterations though as it's made to measure and I will get a free alteration post wedding to detach the train and make it more versatile.

No veil, pettycoat or special underwear needed - and the shoes (Jimmy Choo) have already been sponsored by my fiancé as a gift.

My grand total was $2600-ish. $1400 for the dress, $400 for alterations, and $450 for an elaborate handmaid Swarovski crystal wrap-around hair accessory, $150 for the veil, $100 for the shoes, and $100 for the undergarments.

Luckily my dress was a sample; had I bought it brand new, another $1400+ would have been added to my grand total.

Dress and slip total 600. No alterations needed no doing a bustle.

I'm making mine, and the silk was bought years ago and I get the fabric at reduced rates so final cost is hard to say.

but what your dress is costing that doesn't sound bad to me.

do you have a picture of your dress? I'm sure it's stunning!

Dress: $650

My mom is paying for the dress (I'll pay for alterations), so I wanted to keep it around $1000. She was willing to go a little higher. I got an Allure gown that came to a little over $1200

Dress - 466.65

Sash - 69.00 (my sister paid for it)

Fascinator/veil - 89.10

Garment bag - 10

Preservation kit - 99

Shoes - 20 (on sale)

Alterations, if necessary, will be about 60. My dress is fit-and-flare, so if I drop weight I'll just have the top to adjust.

Dress veil belt $4,057.00

Alterations capped out at $495.00

So all said and done probably $4,600

1,600 over budget but my dress is beautiful and one of a kind

Don't know, but hope to keep it under $5,000 including alterations, veil and accessories!

I found one i love its a Maggie sottero and its 1500 but that's way out of my budget. Have a dress very similar by Alfred Angelo that i am gonna try on, i was able to find it for 900. So that's a little better.

I got a great deal and mine was $137... Borrowing my sisters veil and got a pearl collar necklace for $13. I'm hoping to get away with spending less than $500 on all of it. Going to add some blingy stuff...

My actual dress I got for 250 at Davids bridal because one of the beads was out of place

I just bought my dress this past weekend and spent a little over $1,000 after tax... annndd my FH was really mad that I would spend "so much." I'm glad to see mine is about average!!
