Wedding Gowns, Cleaning

Let's work backwards...what's one of the last things on your checklist? Dry cleaning your wedding gown after the big day. Yuck! Chemicals, preservation techniques, tacky boxes, oh my. Think again. They spot clean your entire wedding dress, inside and out, to remove stains, oils and soils.Then they perform a specialized wet cleaning process on each wedding gown individually based on the age, color and fabric. Next, they will air dry your bridal gown to protect the beads and sequins from harmful heat. After pressing, they place the gown in a specially designed archival museum preservation box, which is acid free, lignin free and buffered. When the preservation process is completed, the boxed wedding gown is ready for you to view for final approval.
