The vows have been spoken, the cake has been cut and now you have a wedding dress sitting in the back of your closet. Many brides find themselves lost as to what to do with their gorgeous gown once the nuptials are over.

There are several things you can do: sell it, donate it or preserve it! That is our personal favorite option. We use The Wedding Gown Preservation Company. They have been around since 1913 and are a 4th generation owned business in New York.

Their cleaning methods have been proven and recognized by the International Fabric Institute as the best methods in the gown preservation industry. They pride themselves in the highest standard of quality and care of bridal gowns in cleaning and preservation.

Bring your dress by anytime! We will box it up for you and send it out to The Wedding Gown Preservation Company. The whole process typically takes 12-16 weeks.

Each gown is evaluated upon its arrival and the best cleaning process for that particular gown is used. All of the processes are safe, gentle and environmentally safe. Your gown is then fitted on an acid-free bust form and packed in an acid-neutral preservation chest. You can include up to 5 items with you dress. Some items are an additional charge.

Then you can choose to have it either delivered to Celebrations or your home. They do require someone present to sign for it so most have it sent to us.

They provide a 100 year guarantee against caramelized sugar stains or yellowing. If at anytime your gown is found to have yellowed or has caramelized stains The Wedding Gown Preservations Company will reprocess the gown at no additional cost. If reprocessing is found to be unsuccessful we will refund the preservation cost.
REMEMBER: Never store your gown in the attic or basement.
