If you used your wedding gown to make a christening outfit for DC . . .

Where did you have it made and how much did it cost? I got a quote for $500 which I thought was Chat Icon but that could just be what the going rate is as far as I know. . .

I had a wonderful lady in Coram do DS's. I think it was under $200, but her prices may have gone up since 2007. She also altered my wedding gown and other gowns I have had. Please FM me if you are interested.

ETA: I also asked her to make it pretty plain for DS. If we ever have a girl, she is planning on adding more of the beadwork from my gown to the existing gown.

Hi Bri,
Shannon used a woman in Merrick. I don't think she spent a lot on it and the dress came out beautiful!
