well for me,,,,, id been planning this wedding since i was 4 lmao so all i really wanted was a great dress that fit my ass and hips. What i found was a dress that was amazing with crystals and a big train, with this my mom got me added handmaid flowers to go on my hip and a reception dress for a total of 1200.00 and as much as i love/hate looking at everyones dress lol lol i couldnt be happier. alterations might cost 100. so an over all total of 1300.00 for all three
