$79 special at MK Cleaners on Jericho Tpke in East Northport - I think the normal price was $89 or 99.

They did a great job.

Yes, or as I like to refer to it as ... my dress coffin!!!

They sent it out I'm sure, but it was pretty fast and I was pleased. I actually had to take the dress out the other day and it was completely spotless!

Re: How much did it cost to get your dress cleaned and boxed??

I'm not going to 'box up' my dress..i'm having it cleaned and then I am storing it in the vacuum sealed clothing storage garment bag I got. It's the greatest thing: You can fit tons of clothes in and vacuum seal them by sucking all the air out. I'm only putting my Gown in this one, but it will keep it from getting damaged or yellowed:
Air is what damages fabric...so I figure, if my someday daughter wants to wear my dress, it will just need a good pressing that's all

Havn't found a cleaner yet though ...
