Dress Safe Before Your Wedding Day<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you buy a brand <strong>new wedding dress<\/strong>, it will be created from scratch by the manufacturer and shipped to your bridal store. It is a good idea to have your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/01\/how-to-save-on-wedding-dress-alterations\/\">alterations completed at the same boutique<\/a>, since this will minimize handling of your gown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the fittings, your gown is ready to go home. Exercise caution about how you go about<strong> handling your gown<\/strong> at every stage, from this step onwards. Here is all that you should know at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wedding-bride-with-veil-bridal-gown.jpg\" alt=\"wedding bride with veil - bridal gown\" class=\"wp-image-12929\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wedding-bride-with-veil-bridal-gown.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wedding-bride-with-veil-bridal-gown-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wedding-bride-with-veil-bridal-gown-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transporting_the_gown\"><\/span><strong>Transporting the gown:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure that your gown is properly boxed or wrapped in plastic, before you take it outdoors. We suggest you lay the gown down in the back seat of your car, instead of shoving it in the storage. The more space you can afford to spread it out on, the less it will wrinkle. If creases are formed during transport, you will end up having to <strong><em>press the dress again<\/em><\/strong> to restore its <strong>original look<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keeping_it_intact_till_the_big_day\"><\/span><strong>Keeping it intact till the big day:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allocate a low-traffic area which is out the way, for the storage of your wedding dress. Don&#8217;t remove it from the bag, unless absolutely necessary. However, if it comes wrapped in plastic, we suggest you move it into a fabric bag. Plastic causes stains over time and it doesn&#8217;t allow the fabric to breathe. So, it is best avoided, if your <strong>dress<\/strong> arrives home long before your wedding day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_store_it\"><\/span><strong>How to store it:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/26\/sensual-glamorous-wedding-dresses-sexy-bride\/\">wedding dresses<\/a><\/strong> have <strong>heavy fabric layers <\/strong>and plenty of embellishments. It isn&#8217;t wise to hang such dresses. However, if your dress has minimum embellishments and is light-weight, consider hanging it in a closet or a similar safe place. For a heavy gown, you should ideally store the dress flat. Ideal locations would be the top shelf of your closet or a storage area under the bed, that you rarely use for anything else. Or if you have a spare room, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/21\/3-tips-help-wedding-dress-alterations\/\">consider storing it there<\/a>, if it is out of direct sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hang_it_with_care\"><\/span><strong>Hang it with care:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your dress isn&#8217;t too heavy, you can hang it up in your <em>storage space<\/em>. However, be careful how you do this. Always use a padded hanger for the purpose, and not one made from wiry material that can damage the fabric. <strong>Wedding dresses <\/strong>will have fabric loops on the inside. Use these to hang it. Never hang a dress by its straps or sleeves. This can cause the delicate material to sag or rip.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"426\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/dress.jpg\" alt=\"white clean dress\" class=\"wp-image-7224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/dress.jpg 426w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/dress-416x625.jpg 416w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/dress-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keep_it_away_from_heat_and_dampness\"><\/span><strong>Keep it away from heat and dampness:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exposure to heat can <strong>damage your wedding dress<\/strong>. Also, placing it in a humid environment makes the fabric prone to stains and mold. So, make sure that your storage area experiences no fluctuations in temperature. Additionally, it shouldn&#8217;t be damp. Use a dehumidifier in the room, if you aren&#8217;t certain the space is prone to dampness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_not_handle_it_too_often\"><\/span><strong>Do not handle it too often:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resist the temptation to constantly <strong>check on your dress<\/strong> or show it off to guests. Let it rest in its spot, so it continues to look clean and crisp. Remember that you risk damaging or staining your dress every time you touch it or take it out. So, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brides.com\/story\/is-wedding-dress-preservation-worth-it\">avoid touching it while it is in storage<\/a>. Occasionally give it a quick visual check to make sure everything is fine, and it will be sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Travelling_with_the_gown\"><\/span><strong>Travelling with the gown:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a destination wedding, it is imperative to <strong>travel with your gown<\/strong>. In this case, make sure you carry it in your hand luggage and not check it in. Arrange with your airline to hang it in a safe area for the course of your journey. Else, transport it in a box to ensure minimum handling. We suggest you choose fabric that doesn&#8217;t wrinkle easily and a <strong>dress with few embellishments,<\/strong> to reduce the risk of damage during travel.

You can also hang it in the bathroom with a hot shower running. This is sure to get any remaining wrinkles out. However, be careful that you do not get the dress wet in the process. If you still notice wrinkles, entrust the job of getting them out to a professional dry cleaner. It isn&#8217;t wise to try this yourself. So, find the right agency that can do this without causing any damage to your <strong>wedding gown<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Caring_For_Your_Wedding_Gown_On_Your_Wedding_Day\"><\/span><strong>Caring For Your Wedding Gown On Your Wedding Day<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will finally get to wear your <strong>brand new wedding gown<\/strong> on your <strong>wedding day<\/strong>.

Complete your hair and makeup first, and only then wear your <strong>wedding dress.<\/strong> If you must touch up your hair and makeup, place a towel over your dress, so the products don&#8217;t come in contact with the fabric. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brides.com\/story\/how-to-create-the-perfect-getting-ready-timeline\">This sample timeline<\/a> on the Brides website may be handy in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/12\/how-to-plan-your-wedding-and-save-a-lot-of-money\/\">planning your day<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Have_an_emergency_kit_at_hand\"><\/span><strong>Have an emergency kit at hand:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/11\/planning-and-putting-together-a-wedding-emergency-kit\/\">wedding emergency kit <\/a>is a lifesaver on most occasions. You can either buy a ready-made kit or set it up yourself. This emergency kit will contain all the essential items to address any unexpected <strong>wedding dress mishaps<\/strong>. From crystals that fall off to <strong>makeup stains<\/strong> or rips and tears, it will have the emergency supplies to handle such situations. So, don&#8217;t go anywhere on your wedding day without your emergency kit to tackle things at a moment&#8217;s notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Never_rub_any_stains_that_may_happen\"><\/span><strong>Never rub any stains that may happen:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Should an accident occur, never use harsh products to clean up the mess. For makeup or oily food stains, apply baby powder to the area and dust away the excess powder. In case of wine stains, simply blot the area with a dry tissue. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/13\/mascara-stains-and-red-wine-common-wedding-dress-stains-and-how-to-clean-them\/\">A professional dry cleaner will be able to tackle the stain<\/a> that remains, as long as you get the dress to them soon after the <strong>wedding<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1920s-wedding-theme.jpeg\" alt=\"wedding gown stains\" class=\"wp-image-13878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1920s-wedding-theme.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1920s-wedding-theme-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1920s-wedding-theme-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_ready_to_spot_clean_or_mask_stains\"><\/span><strong>Be ready to spot clean or mask stains:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Wearing your wedding dress<\/strong> is usually one of the last dressing up things to do. So, you will already have your hair and makeup done by this time. Although you will most probably step into your <strong>wedding gown<\/strong> after the rest of the works, you cannot entirely eliminate the risk of a makeup stain. There are also chances of ending up with wine stains, food stains and dirt or mud stains. Be prepared to mask or spot clean your dress, should any of these occur. Baking powder, baby powder or chalk will mask most stains. In any situation, never use anything permanent like shoe polish or white out as you cannot get these out later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hold_up_your_skirt_and_train_when_outdoors\"><\/span><strong>Hold up your skirt and train when outdoors:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not only will your dress collect dust, dirt and moisture when you are outdoors, it can stain and the fabric may be damaged beyond repair. The fibers in wedding dresses are very delicate and susceptible to ripping and tearing. So, pick up the train and <strong>hold your skirt up when you step outdoors<\/strong>. Have your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/20\/12-things-best-bridesmaid-ever\/\">bridesmaids support your skirt and train<\/a> if it is a long walk, so your <strong>dress isn&#8217;t damaged<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"After_The_Wedding\"><\/span><strong>After The Wedding<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>big day<\/strong> has come and gone.

So, don&#8217;t stash it into a box or your closet right away. Hang it up, and allow it to air dry for a bit. Don&#8217;t wrap it in plastic, as this can cause stains to set and new ones to form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cleaning_and_storage_cant_wait\"><\/span><strong>Cleaning and storage can&#8217;t wait:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you plan to head off on your honeymoon soon after the wedding, entrust your wedding gown to a faithful friend. Ask her to drop it off for<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/29\/the-importance-of-wedding-dress-preservation\/\"> cleaning and preservation<\/a> ASAP! For tasks like this can&#8217;t wait till you are back. The sooner you attack the stains, the better your chances of getting them out. So, have your dress sent to the <strong>dry cleaners with instructions<\/strong> on the damage done, so they can work on it accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Store_it_the_right_way_after_cleaning\"><\/span><strong>Store it the right way after cleaning:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For your dress to be re-usable, it should at least be<strong> dry cleaned<\/strong> after the <strong>wedding<\/strong>. Once you get it back from the dry cleaners, you can store it carefully at home by yourself. You will need a box that is at least one-third the length of the front of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/04\/common-wedding-emergencies-handle\/\">gown to store it properly<\/a>. Use plenty of tissue to line the box and stuff the dress to avoid creases from forming. We also advise removal of metallic buttons, zippers and hooks that can oxidize and stain the dress over time. Take the dress out of storage once in a while, inspect it for deterioration of any kind, refold and put it back to ensure it is in <strong>best condition<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280-682x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding dress shopping\" class=\"wp-image-8457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280-416x624.jpg 416w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/salon-of-wedding-dresses-1967312_1280.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Shopping for wedding dresses<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_professional_preservation_services_for_guaranteed_results\"><\/span><strong>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-gown-preservation.php\">professional preservation services<\/a> for guaranteed results:<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To guarantee the storage of your <strong>dress in perfect condition<\/strong>, it is best to have it professionally preserved by the experts.

Make sure that you choose the best <strong>storage method for your gown<\/strong>\u2014vertical vs horizontal\u2014to ensure the gown is stored right.

Avoid wire hangers, as they can stretch or distort the fabric. Hang your dress in a cool, dry, and dark place to prevent discoloration or damage from sunlight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protect Your Dress from Pets: If you have pets at home, keep your wedding dress out of their reach to avoid any potential damage. Cats, in particular, may be drawn to the texture of the fabric, so store your dress in a closed room or a protective garment bag to keep it safe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handle with Clean Hands: Before touching your wedding dress, make sure your hands are clean and free of lotions, oils, or makeup. Oils and residue from your hands can transfer onto the fabric and leave stains or marks that are difficult to remove.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep Food and Drinks Away: While getting ready on your wedding day, be cautious with food and drinks around your wedding dress. Accidental spills can be challenging to remove and may cause permanent stains. Have a designated area for refreshments, away from your dress, and use a straw for sipping to minimize the risk of spills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beware of Makeup and Perfume: Be mindful when applying makeup and perfume before putting on your wedding dress. Apply makeup and let it fully dry before dressing to avoid smudging or staining the dress. Also, spray perfume on your body rather than directly on the dress, as some perfumes may contain oils or alcohol that can damage the fabric.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have a Fabric Care Kit Handy: Prepare a fabric care kit that includes essential items such as stain remover, fabric freshener, and a lint roller. Keep this kit nearby on your wedding day, so you can quickly address any stains, wrinkles, or minor mishaps that may occur.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delegate Dress Assistance: Enlist the help of a trusted bridesmaid, family member, or wedding planner to assist you with your dress throughout the day. They can help you navigate tight spaces, lift the train, or handle bustling if needed, minimizing the risk of tripping or damaging your dress.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plan for Outdoor Photos: If you&#8217;re planning to take outdoor photos, be mindful of the location and weather conditions. Choose locations with minimal risk of dirt, mud, or other elements that may soil your dress. Consider bringing a clean, white sheet to stand on for protection, especially if the ground is damp or dirty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take Breaks from Sitting: If you&#8217;ll be sitting for an extended period in your wedding dress, take occasional breaks to minimize creasing or wrinkling. When sitting down, arrange your dress carefully to avoid excessive pressure on delicate details or beading.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Professional Cleaning and Preservation: After your wedding day, have your dress professionally cleaned and preserved as soon as possible. Seek out a reputable wedding dress preservation service that specializes in handling delicate fabrics and intricate details. Proper cleaning and preservation will help ensure your dress remains in excellent condition for years to come.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Summary_Properly_Caring_for_Your_Wedding_Dress_Before_and_During_the_Wedding_Day\"><\/span>Summary: Properly Caring for Your Wedding Dress Before and During the Wedding Day<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take proper care of your wedding dress before and during the wedding day to keep it in pristine condition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Store your wedding dress in a cool, dry, and dark place to prevent damage from sunlight, humidity, and pests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hang the dress using padded hangers or store it in a breathable garment bag to avoid wrinkling and creasing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid storing the dress in plastic bags or covers, as they can trap moisture and lead to mold or mildew growth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Schedule a professional cleaning and pressing of your wedding dress before the wedding day to remove any stains or wrinkles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handle the dress with clean hands and avoid wearing makeup or lotions that could transfer onto the fabric.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use a designated &#8220;dress helper&#8221; to assist you in wearing and maneuvering the dress to prevent any accidents or damages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have a backup plan in case of emergencies, such as a small sewing kit, stain remover, or spare accessories.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>During the wedding day, avoid eating or drinking near the dress to prevent accidental spills or stains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assign a trusted person to oversee the care of the dress during the reception, ensuring it stays clean and protected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ_%E2%80%93_Caring_for_Your_Wedding_Dress\"><\/span>FAQ &#8211; Caring for Your Wedding Dress<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How long should your wedding gown be kept?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s best if you can get your wedding gown cleaned and shipped to a preservationist as soon as possible. It&#8217;s important to have your gown maintained within six weeks after your wedding day for the finest results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How can you avoid wrinkles in your wedding gown?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Close all the windows and fans, and hang your dress high off the floor. Close the bathroom door and take a long, hot shower. Take the dress out of the bag after approximately 10 minutes and hang it firmly in the bathroom, away from the walls and off the floor. Make certain it won&#8217;t fall to the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is it possible to clean a wedding gown after 5 years?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t worry if you have an older gown or one that you haven&#8217;t had cleaned in weeks or months after your wedding. While it is best to have a wedding gown cleaned and maintained sooner rather than later, the reality is that it is never too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is preserving a wedding gown worthwhile?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want your dress&#8217;s beauty to survive a long time and you don&#8217;t plan on bringing it out of its box anytime soon, preservation is a must. Dresses that aren&#8217;t kept in good condition can become yellow with time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the best way to clean the bottom of my wedding gown?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the bathtub, wash the soiled garment hem with warm water and mild soap. To accomplish this, place the top half of the dress on a clean towel on the floor to keep it out of the water. Allow the hem to soak for a few hours, then gently clean it with a cloth or toothbrush soaked in detergent before washing.<\/p>\n<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"letreach_post_category\" value=\"Wedding Dress\">","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your wedding dress undergoes plenty of wear and tear before, during and after the wedding.
