Few things are as cherished as wedding gowns.
Careful planning goes into selecting the perfect wedding dress and many brides want to preserve it as a keepsake or heirloom to be presented to their daughters decades from now. Other brides just want their gown cleaned so it can look its best to resell.
Trust your gown to our experts. We clean more than a thousand gowns every year!
Our wedding gown specialists carefully examine every gown when it arrives to determine the most suitable method for cleaning.
Fabric, ornamentation and types of stains are all be considered. Stains are treated including hidden soils from perspiration, body oils and clear liquid spills such as white wine. Some stains not immediately visible darken with age (carmelization) causing fabric weakness and discoloration.
Vintage Gowns
Are you considering wearing your grandmother’s wedding dress for your upcoming marriage? Maybe you want to clean and restore an old gown as a 50th wedding anniversary gift. We can clean and often remove stains set long ago as we brighten gowns yellowed with age and oxidation. It’s a wonderful way to honor a family member or dear friend!
Don’t restrict your thinking to just wedding dresses. We can provide the same cleaning and restoration techniques to any important garment. Maybe you’ve acquired a beautiful couture creation or unique vintage garment. We can do wonders with those, too.

Wedding Gown Preservation
Even a clean dress that hangs in a closet for 20 years can be negatively affected by humidity, ultraviolet light, smoke, smog, insects, and dust which all take their toll over time.
Protect your prized gown with our MuseumStyle™ storage box featuring moisture and oxygen control technology.
Your dress is carefully sealed in an acid-free inner box and shrink wrapped. The sealed packaging allows viewing of your gown and accessories at any time without disturbing the protective seal. Your gown is protected from insect damage and oxidation. The inner box is encased in a durable storage chest with handle for added protection and convenience.
