David's Bridal

[Chicken_Little 0]

Okay first off, in the wedding dress thread, a few ladies said they bought dresses at David's Bridal. That's where I bought mine too. Now it's coming time to have it altered and was wondering if any of you had used David's alteration service and if so, what you thought. My dress has a train that needs to be bustled for the reception, and needs to be taken up a bit as it's too long. So I want to go somewhere good, that won't have me having my alterations falling apart during the wedding!

I also don't have a lot of extra cash.

So...any reviews of David's Bridal's alterations dept?

And for anyone in the Boston area -- any recommendations of alternate spots I could go to have alterations done? Preferably someplace that won't cost me an arm and a leg?

Damn, this wedding stuff's expensive!

I mean, we're already married, but wanted a big, Church wedding too. Who knew everything would cost so much?

I bought my dress and had them do the same thing for the length at David's Bridal. They did a good job, and it wasn't horribly expensive (like $40 or so).

I got David's to do my alterations. A bit pricey because I needed the cap sleeves altered so they didn't slip off, I needed a lot of the dress hemmed at the front and I needed a bussle.

But, that said, I was very happy with the alterations they did. They also didn't charge me a rush fee when I came in two weeks before the wedding to get it altered (the woman should have, but she was super-nice).

I have to say, I've pretty much had nothing but good experiences with David's here in Salt Lake City. But since I live no where near Boston, I can't recommend anywhere else to you. Sorry!
