Our Wedding Gown Cleaning and Preservation Process

1. When your wedding gown arrives at the BridalKare plant it is checked in, registered and then thoroughly inspected for stains and repairs.

2. Your gown is then hand cleaned along the hem, neckline and underarms. We are experts at removing dirt, mud, grass-stains, asphalt parking lot oil and other stains from the hem of your dress. We also pay particular attention to removing all of the make-up, deoderant and perspiration stains as well.

3. Your gown will then be thoroughly inspected with a black light to reveal any hidden stains. All stains and spots are specifically treated to gently remove them from your gown. Our "anti-sugar" treatment removes all sugar stains (usually caused by wines, sodas, or cake frosting) and keeps them from returning and yellowing over time.

4. Your wedding gown is then individually cleaned. We use a more expensive "Stoddard" solvent which is enviornmentally friendly and gentler on the fabrics rather than the perchloroethylene which dry-cleaners and other preservation companies use. Our exclusive cleaning process also keeps your wedding dress from yellowing.

5. A complete and thorough re-inspection then takes place. If any problems remain the gown is re-processed.

6. Any needed repairs are made. (minor repairs are done free - other companies will charge you extra for this service)

7. Your gown is then individually steamed and hand pressed. It is also individually dried to make sure all mositure is gone from the dress fabric.

8. Your gown's bodice is shaped and put on an acid-free bust form for display so you'll be able to see how beautiful it is - just like the day you pruchased it.

9. The bodice and skirt are layered with acid free tissue paper to protect it.

10. Your gown is then carefully placed in an acid free windowed display box and completely sealed to keep the moisture from the outside humidity out. (Moisture in the box/fabric can cause mildew) It's also important to provide this sealed brarrier to keep insects from getting in and nesting in your dress.

11. The windowed preservation box is placed inside a white storage box and then both of these boxes are placed inside a protective shipping box and shipped pre-paid to you via UPS.

Wedding Gown Preservation

The cleaning and preservation of your wedding gown is one of the most important things you can do to preserve those cherished memories of your wedding day. Don't just hang your wedding dress in the closet where it will be susceptible to dust, moisture, light, bacteria, mildew, moths and other culprits. Where it can also be misshapen by hanging it from it's hanging loops. To keep your dress looking as beautiful as possible for years to come you should make sure and have your wedding gown preservation done professionally.

Make sure to send your wedding dress to a cleaning and preservation service as soon after the wedding as possible. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to remove any stains (like read wine, grass or ground in dirt). Also look for a professional wedding gown preservation company that will do minor repairs to your dress for free. Whether it's a loose bead here or there, a missing button, or other minor repair you want your dress to be restored to it's perfect condition.

When trying to decide who to use to do your wedding gown preservation you should ask the following questions. How long has the company been in the wedding dress preservation business? (There is a big difference between the corner dry-cleaner and a professional gown preservation company.) What are the exact steps to there processing? Do they inspect the dress with a black light to make sure there aren't any stains that may not be visible to the naked eye? Do they use environmentally friendly chemicals. Do they offer a lifetime written guarantee? Are they reasonably priced?

Your local dry-cleaner may say they can do the job, but be careful. Will your precious wedding gown be put in with the other garments to be cleaned, or will it be cleaned separately? What does their shop look like, is it spotlessly clean? Does the actual person doing the cleaning know what they are doing, do they have years of experience dealing with wedding dresses? Do they know the problems that come with cleaning fragile fabrics, delicate beading, embroidered lace, sequins, pearls or crystals? Do they use acid free boxes, acid free tissue paper and do they seal their preservation box to keep the insects out?
