welcome...at first I thought that was a lot too but when my mom explained what they had to do it made sense.

I paid a little less than 250...it includes cleaning, preservation, and shipping to your house. I did it through my bridal salon - a company they work with!

I just ordered the kit from WedClean. It was like $130 for my dress, veil and some extra insurance. Hope it turns out okay!

Re: Preserving our wedding gowns

I have yet to do mine (I know bad) but I am taking it to my local cleaners in Wantagh. It is $120 & they clean & preserve it. Also you are allowed to put other items like veil, shoes, tiara, garter in the box
