Should I take my dress to get it pressed or try to diy?

Amanda, on July 12, 2017 at 10:12 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 8

I am driving my fiancee crazy! I picked up my dress yesterday from my tailor and he said I could steam my dress myself. Well press I guess. I have a steamer at home and my dress will need minimal pressing. I am just anxious about dropping my dress off with a dry cleaner so close to the wedding.

    No way would I try to DIY. If the place where you purchased it cant steam it I would do as Kate said. Please dont try to DIY

    I would absolutely not do this myself. Take it back to the tailor or find a good dry cleaner. You have plenty of time.

    I would not to do it. Leave it to the pros. Don't take the chance of accidentally damaging it

    Ah I think this is one of those things a professional should handle.

    If you had a good quality steamer I think it would work but I wouldn't touch it with an iron. I wear formal dresses quite often and always use my steamer.

    I do have a high quality steamer that I use often. I am worried about a cleaner losing my dress or something happening to it.

    As big as wedding dresses are, I doubt they can lose that. Take it to the cleaners. And I am usually all about saving a dollar but I wouldn't chance it if I were you
