We offer different preservation packages to meet various needs and budgets, from basic preservation for recent storage to comprehensive restoration and preservation for vintage pieces.

Before and After Care Tips

Before Alterations

A common question is whether to clean your wedding dress before or after alterations. We recommend cleaning before alterations whenever possible, as this ensures your seamstress works with the cleanest version of your gown and can better assess the true condition of the fabric.

Pre-Wedding Care

• Use padded hangers to maintain shape
• Keep your dress covered with a breathable garment bag

Post-Wedding Care

• Schedule cleaning as soon as possible after your wedding day
• Don't attempt to spot-clean stains yourself
• Store properly until you can bring it for professional cleaning
