Re: Gown Preservation

I've heard good things about WedClean (price wise and service wise) so I'll probably just use them and call it a day.

Now, WHEN will I actually do it is the question.

Re: Gown Preservation

I just checked wedclean.com this morning. It looks like it's $149 to clean and preserve your gown. The other quotes I got so far were $250-350.

Anyone else use wedclean.com? Are there any other quality places that are cheaper?

Crapppp, I guess it went up. I heard it was $100 with WedClean. Well, $149 is still better than everywhere else I've seen!

I used Prestige through a local dry cleaner.......they did a beautiful job and I had it in 10 days. Same price as WedClean.

Same here, I felt safer having the ladies at Helen's send it out rather than doing it myself. It cost more but it was worth my peace of mind. I got it within the timeframe promised and was very happy with how it came out.

I've heard good things about wedclean, do a search on here, I know a lot of 06ers used them.
