First Step – Try to Remove Any “Accidents” As They Happen
It’s almost certain that during the excitement of the event your dress will acquire some stains or marks that will need to be removed. But, it’s something that we are prepared to remedy.Time is of the essence. So we need to let you know that is important to get your wedding dress to us as soon as possible to minimize the chances of any stains setting in.
Step Two– Clean Up
Our preservation process is simple and effective. That’s why we begin by double-checking your wedding dress for any soil or stains and, if we find any, gently cleaning them.
Step 3 – Get Any Yellow Out
If it’s been some time since the wedding, you may have had the dress just hanging for a while, so it may have suffered some yellowing. A timely thorough cleaning is necessary to remove any such blemishes and to prevent any further discoloration of the fabric.
Step 4 – Long-term Preservation
Your wedding dress will be placed into one of our Bridal Gown Keepsake Boxes. Each box is made from acid-free materials. The dress’s sleeves will be gently packed with tissue and the dress will be wrapped in protective tissue to prevent permanent wrinkles.
The box is then sealed to prevent mold or mildew from developing on your dress. This will also prevent light damage and the development of oxidation spots. Once sealed, if you store your gown in a dry, well-vented space, your special day will be preserved for you and future generations.
We offer the convenience of at-your-front-door pick-up and delivery in the entire extended Shaker/Beachwood area. Choose pickup and drop-off text on what works best for YOU.
