Advice on preserving my wedding dress

Crazyinlove<3, on September 27, 2016 at 3:23 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 8

I need some advice on preserving my wedding dress. What did you do? Where did you have it preserved? Anyone have it preserved through the mail in Prestige Preservation Program?

Thanks!

    Most dry cleaners will preserve wedding gowns. Also, Davids Bridal sells preservation kits.

    I searched for a specialist near me at the Association of Wedding Gown Specialists. After reading reviews I went to Grace Gown Care in Toronto and brought my gown in for a free evaluation beginning of August.

    I'm going in this weekend to inspect it before they preserve and seal it in the archival preservation chest.

    I bought the David's bridal kit. They had it on sale for $99 and it includes cleaning!

    I'm waiting to get mine back now.

    ETA: You can buy this without buying your dress from them. My dress was from a different store but I looked at even other cleaning options and it was going to be more to even get the dress cleaned.

    My mom bought the davids bridal kit for my dress. You can buy it even if you didnt get your dress there. I think its a little more expensive than $99 though.

    DB kit is $99 reg $189ish. They have a sale going on I bought one for mine and really recommended doing that. I wasn't going to do this but my mom talked me into doing it cause it is such a great deal!

    I purchased a kit from Wedding Gown Preservation Co: http://www.gownpreservation.com. They sell their kits through retailers, I got mine through Alfred Angelo.
