How many people had or are planning to have their dress cleaned and preserved? How much does it cost?
Thanks!

My Godfather was such a Big Help. The night of the wedding he took Alot of stuff home with him, including my dress. He then had it cleaned & preserved for me.
I think it was around $150/$200.

Brought mine to my local dry cleaners and I think it was $180 and it was ready in a month.

88 days later, I still haven't done this but I plan to... I feel like it makes it official that I'm never going to wear it again, so I'm procrastinating!!!!

I gor an idea the other day. I think I want to have my brother comeover and take picsof my DD running around in the dress,maybe in the srping. After that I wanna have it cleaned and preserved, even though the organza overlay is trashed!

I'm going to try to sell my dress.
It's beautiful, but I don't have space for it

I used wedclean.net and they were great and pretty inexpensive. I think it was about $150 when you added in the insurance.

Re: After the wedding....
I got mine done at a place that did a phenomenal job. I saw it before it was preserved and it looked BRAND NEW - I was SHOCKED that the bottom was as clean as it was the day I brought it home.
They also have a referral program. They will mail you a check for $50 if you get another girl to go there. It works! A girl here recommended I go there and I have her name and she got the check!
FM me if you are interested so I can give you details!

Re: After the wedding....
I went to my local seamstress/drycleaner and had it preserved and cleaned for $150. I can't refer you because we live in NJ now, but i'm sure that you can find someone on LI in the price range.
GL!

Re: After the wedding....
My mom took my dress to the cleaners while we were on our honeymoon...I still haven't picked it up! Just a regular cleaning was $100.00. I'm planning on taking 'day after' photos in a couple of months so I didn't want to preserve it yet.

I plan to, but haven't looked into it yet. For now, it's in a garment bag, hanging in my attic.

Re: After the wedding....
I had mine cleaned and preserved through the wedding gown preservation co. It was about $250 I think, and It took about 2 months. It is in a box with a window so I can see the top of the dress.
