    Hi ladies, I posted on here before about anyone knowing of any good alterations near Los Angeles. Does anyone know how much it would cost to hem the bottom of a wedding dress a few inches, bring in the bust. and take off about a foot off the train? My dress is a Watters Kalahari and I am getting married outdoors and the dress has a pretty long train. Thanks everyone

    i think your best bet would be to call local alterations places that specialize in wedding dresses, or even wedding dress shops and asking them. they won't be able to give you an exact quote until they actually see your dress, material and what not. 

    hope that helps!

    The closest good Bridal shop is in LA, which is an hour away.. So I'm just looking for a guesstimate so I'm not shocked at the price.

    I got mine done in woodland hills. It was shortened, taken in, cups sewn in, and a couple other things. I think it was about $400 for everything but doremember ever for sure.  The place is called  In Stitches by Reene and she works out of her house.
