(For the brides out there, the reviews on this dress also indicate that it could be a nice option for bridesmaid dresses.) On top of the cost of the dress, I did get it hemmed and altered to be a little tighter on top, which should normally be a low expense, but I got scammed into paying more for the tailoring than I did for the dress (a story for a different time!) I also paid for Spanx because this dress is very form-fitting, but other than that, it was a relatively low-cost way to achieve an outfit that felt right for two weddings without the hassle of renting anything or paying a lot for two gowns I probably won't wear again
