Turn the memory of your special day into an heirloom that will last for generations to come. We preserve each dress in an archival, museum-quality preservation chest. Our cleaning process is Carbon Neutral, and we use environmentally friendly, natural products.


Bridal Gown CLEANING & Preservation

After your wedding, we’ll clean your gown according to museum-quality standards, and take extra steps to remove all stains – even the ones you can’t see.

Wedding Dress Preservation and standard dry cleaning are not the same. Wedding day spills such as soda, wine and cake (many times caused by a guest and unnoticed by you) can dry without leaving a mark. These sugary stains, which are not dissolved during ordinary dry cleaning, will caramelize into brown spots. Did we mention sweat, makeup and hemline dirt? No problem. We work diligently to remove such stains as best as possible using our all-natural cleaning process.

Our preservations are carbon-neutral – we offset all carbon emissions with donations to Carbonfund.org who support reforestation projects.

After cleaning, we personally inspect your gown before it is carefully layered with acid-free tissue and preserved in a specialty wedding chest that protects it from exposure to light and air. Choosing not to preserve your wedding dress, you increase the likelihood of yellowed fabric, brown spots, mold/mildew and permanent creases or tears in the fabric. Don’t take the risk!
