Please understand that out of respect for my time we may not be able to do multiple consultations or sketches until you have committed to having the dress made and paid the deposit when we offer you the price. 3. Payments: A 30% deposit is due up front before we begin making your dress. This is to cover the cost of the first craft draping and is non-refundable. After you approve the first craft draping sample, you will be required to pay an additional 30% of the price to purchase the necessary materials needed to continue to process the dress. The balance of the dress and sales tax if applicable is due when the dress is completed, and the dress will not be given to the client until full payment has been made. 4. Fittings /Alterations: All fittings and alterations are included in the cost of the dress. In other words, I will work with you until your dress fits perfectly and you are fully satisfied with it.
