It cost me over $100 for alteration of a bridesmaid dress that was only $180 to begin with. These were just standard alterations. I was told it was because the dress was a top and skirt. The other bridesmaids had the exact alterations done elsewhere for anywhere from $20 to $50. My dress alteration cost more than double. PAY AHEAD!! That way you know how much it will cost. Once they have your dress hostage and they have done the alterations, there is not much you can do to dispute the cost!!
