It just smells strong, like whatever material the bag is made of is taking it over. When I unzipped it, it just smelled very closed in. No longer like my Tiffany perfume! I am definitely doing it next week....The dress itself looks perfect and is still crisp white.

Ditto! And I feel terrible because of what the dress means and all the stress with mom making it...it's in the closet.

I plan on only having it cleaned. Maybe preserved one day. DH and I are considering re-taking some of our pictures, so I'd be wearing the dress again.

Cool! I had a dream LAST NIGHT that I had to wear the dress again (!) and it didn't fit.

Currently just cleaned. I plan on wearing it again, but after that it will be cleaned and preserved.

Re: PAST BRIDES!!!!
The thing that makes me sad about getting it preserved is that I can't put it on after that. But I don't want it to turn yellow either.
I put my dress on again last night and walked around the house.
