What do I do with my dress when it comes in? Do I keep in in the bag, hang it in the closet? Do I let the train hang out or bussle it?

That is a GREAT question!!

I would also like to know how to store my dress after it has been altered. I'm assuming that I will have it for at least a week or so before the wedding. I don't want any wrinkles

Some girls responded to my post on this on the BHB board. Check it out. Let's hope more people respond so we know what to do

My seamstress said to keep it in a room that pets can't get into and to hang it up and drape the skirt and train of the dress over a chair back (so that the chair is underneath the skirt and helps the skirt spread out)

Get this - My Mom and Dad are storing my dress in a guest room and they are removing some of the drop ceiling so they can get a little more height so the dress will hang without hitting the floor!
