I know theres a few post already about how much was spent on our wedding dress, however these are just numbers with usually no mention of what the dress actually looks like. So I thought it would be fun and helpful to have pictures of our dress with how much we paid. This is for informational purposes only lol since I know when I was looking I didn't know if I was getting a deal or getting ripped off, I would have loved to have a reference point!
( I know price sharing makes some people uncomfortable, but I hope some people are with me on this one!)
Ill go first
Allure 8705, it cost me around $700.00
LOVE YOUR ALLURE !
My dress cost $900 before alterations. Scared to know what THOSE will cost !

Sure! I am wearing Casablanca 1901 - It was $899 plus tax, shipping, etc. plis $129 for custom length. Total, I paid a little over $1,200. 
Mine was $750! And when it came in, it fit like a glove! No alterations needed!!

Mine is a Maggie Sottero - Melissa Brooch...all said and done with taxes $1290.00 :( (DOUBLE what i wanted to spend...alas) WITHOUT alterations...BUT it fits like a glove so all i have to get is bustle (25.00) and some lace put in at the top to hide "the sisters" for another 50.00.
I don't have a picture of me in the dress, but it's a Watters 5034b. I paid $253.00 for the dress and $100 for alterations and I switched out the sash color; it's brand new. I got it at the Running of the Brides. LOVE IT!

My dress was Watters Wtoo. Bridal shops were asking $800 for it, I ordered from Netbride for only $425.
@moosejaw: OMG that is the first time I've seen that dress here on Wedding Bee! I LOVED that Watters dress, and was thinking about getting it myself! It's beautiful - excellent choice!
My Dress is the Fanal by LaSposa. I paid $925.00 but that is not including the alterations. I bought it in Ivory.

Allure 8771 $673 before alterations. The bridal shop also threw in a free veil and shoes.
$845 without alterations. With alterations I think I'm going to sneak in at just under $1000. Maggie Sottero Milana. First fitting is next Saturday!
Mine was $700 including free alterations for me and my wedding party and mob and mog, which I think is amazing. Not to mention 15% of any shoes and accessories. My advice is to shop around for price once you find "the one." The first bridal place wanted 1100 for the same exact dress and then they were going to charge me for alterations and an extra $100 for a petite size.
She's Maggie Sottero Ericka! I love her!
Mine was about $120 & I didn't need any alterations :). I got it at Deb's.
Sorry, the pic isn't the greatest quality, my dress is ivory.
@sweetpea1031- Thank you so much!! I do, too!!! It's just as amazing on as it is on the model ;]
I spent £115 on my dress and didn't get alterations. It works out at around $175 US Dollars at the current exchange rate.
Well, my dress is an Alita Grahm Klienfeld's Exclusive which i bought at the Blowout in April. I saved for this dress and McGroom gave me some money too. Granted, i spent more than I wanted, we paid $1300 something for it and over $300 for alterations. Obviously this isn't me and I think I look better in it.
Mine was a PC Mary's gown. On sale for $750, including matching veil! Alterations cost me about $100, so with tax and all, it was about $900. WAAAYY more than I originally wanted to spend, but when you burst into tears when you look at yourself in the mirror the first time, $900 seems like nothing! :)
Excuse my ugly face in the first one... no idea who I was talking to. :)

Such nice dresses! And I feel like I overspent, of course! My dress is the Sottero Midgley 'Sharon' dress. It was $1250 + $75 rush fee +$45 alterations = $1370. Dang! And I wanted to stay under $1000!

Ok, I didn't include all the extra fees for my dress.... Ya'll are making me feel guilty... haha! We had to get custom length, rush shipping, and we also got my veil the day I ordered the dress... All of that plus tax came out right at $1400!
I paid $650 for my Casablanca 1827. I agree, shop around because it was $100 more everywhere else in town! Didn't need alterations and had a friend create the bustle for free.
Walking up to my groom:
And from the side:
Mine was $1000, including alterations. It is morilee

Mine is Alfred Angelo Sapphire 803. I paid 1100. This was after a 300$ discount and included the dress coming in a petite size. Don't know how much alterations are going to cost yet.

Mine was a Casablanca 1932. It was just under $1100 - including alterations and some customizations that they did at Casablanca. I LOVED it!!!!!!
Mine was 1050 before alterations, and they cost me around 100...
Maggie Sottero's Kameryn
My Allure 8350 cost $850 before alterations. I will be paying $75 in alterations to make the skirt shorter, form fit the top, and add a bustle.
This was the cheapest I could find this dress in the area (at Bridal Boutique in Saint Joseph, MO). Some place in Kansas City wanted to charge me up $1400.

Mine was $230 and will need to be shortened, bustled, and something needs to cover up my girls! It will probably be about $400-$450 with alterations (I have a friend who will do it for a reasonable price).

My dress was just under $1800 with taxes, but not including alterations. Alfred Angelo Piccione 410
A work friend of mine owns a bridal store so I paid $650 for it plus got a free veil. I'm not sure what it would have cost elsewhere but one place was $800. I haven't had any alterations yet but Ive budgeted $400.
Casablanca 1944
@blondeeebuckeye:That's so cool! I haven't talked to anyone else who has even tried it on. I thought I wanted something simple, and not strapless, and then I ended up choosing this strapless, lacy, beaded dress with crystals on it. But I love it!
