Custom Christening Gowns?

Has anyone had this done? My daughter is due in April and I'm thinking that I want to have something made out of either mine or my moms wedding dress. I'm hoping to be able to use it for my sisters wedding in December as well. Shes going to be the flower girl. Does anyone have any recommendations of places to use? Can anyone speak to how pricing would run?

Thanks!

I seen people ask on Facebook groups and I think it starts at around $200.

If your doing a newborn shoot you can have your dress draped over a chaise and have your daughter lay on it or have her wear your head piece.

I had my daughters Christening Gown made from my wedding dress. I had a seamstress in Fort Salonga make the dress. Ran about $350-$400 if memory serves me correctly. She also made the bonnet for the dress which later converts to a hankie for her to use at her wedding as "something old". PM me if you want her info.
