Question: I just got engaged on Thanksgiving and we are planning to get married in the summer of 2013 (no date chosen yet). I don't really know anything about wedding stuff, planning, etc so hopefully some of you can give me some good advice. I know it varies a lot, but what price range do wedding dresses run? Also, I've heard it's cheaper to go to David's Bridal than a local bridal salon; is this true? If so, have any of you shopped at David's and if so how was your experience?
Answer: What you describe can easily be done by a qualified dressmaker. So, how do you find one? Go to your local fabric store and ask the cutting counter employees who they would recommend as a seamstress who is experienced with special occasion fabrics and has the ability to design and sew an added feature to your dress. You are sure to get some good references. If you live in a rural area, you may have to call a fabric store in the nearest city to find a seamstress.
Dry cleaners are good for basic alterations, but with all due respect to those seamstresses, they seldom have experience in what you are looking to have done to your dress. When times come to see your seamstress, be sure you have the proper undergarments and shoes for the fitting as those undergarments are ultra important in the way the dress fits you and will have an impact on any other alterations the dress may need.
Then when her mother went to check out they told her that particular dress didn't match my color sash. As well dresses must be paid in full before ordering. If you order dyed shoes you must order them and pay. Then once they come in resend them off through them to get them dyed. Just want I experienced there. I did buy my dresses from a local bridal salon and was overwhelmed with the help I received. I even received a hand written letter the day after in the mail just thank me for going shopping there.

ALSO, at David's you will have to pay for your dress 100% up front but at a local shop you can put a deposit down and slowly pay it off. It just has to be paid off by pick up. That helps with a lot of brides who want the nicer dresses but do not have the money all at once.
