Wedding Gown

Cleaning & Preservation

A wedding dress is unique. A gown of sheer beauty; chosen with passion;

worn only once, a symbol of the woman's adoration, purity and love. Cherished for a

lifetime and often passed on to the progeny of that love. It is more than a dress,

more than a gown, requiring special care when cleaning, carefully handled with

the affection it deserves. You should preserve your gown, keep it like new for a

lifetime in a beautiful, specially made chest with transparent covering for full viewing.

Cleaned and protected: A wonderful moment captured for a lifetime.

At Greensleeves Garment Care we will clean your wedding gown with the care it

deserves. It will be thoroughly inspected for loose beads, sequins and other

adornments and each will be hand tended to by a professional tailor,

making sure they are properly secured. Next, a certified stain removal expert

will treat any spots or marks (like Champagne spills or cake smudges and the ever

present dance floor dirt on the hem).

After it has been fully prepared, it will be dry cleaned by itself in a non-toxic

dry cleaning solution, safer and healthier than organic or any other method

of dry cleaning today. The solution used will be a pure, for the best cleaning

and the brightest, purest white finish.

After cleaning, your gown will be hand finished by the finest of pressers,

artisans in their craft, for a perfectly finished wedding gown. Now that your

gown is beautifully cleaned and pressed it will be preserved in a gorgeous

gold foil or white chest made especially for your gown, protected with acid free

tissue paper. Each chest has a clear cellophane window that will allow you to

open it up and view your gown without exposing it to the everyday humidity that

could be harmful and cause yellowing. A cotton over wrapper is provided to further

protect your gown from moisture while stored.

Museum quality preservation is available. Your gown is stored in an air tight chest,

similar as above with window in gold foil or white. The atmosphere is removed and

replaced with pure nitrogen. This kind of preservation is ideal for long term

assurance and is guaranteed for life.
