Cleaning wedding dress

Does anyone know where I can get my dress cleaned and put in a bos etc or I can get a bix from fro my dress please?

Why, are you planning to re-use it?

The dry cleaners in meadowhall opposite argos do it. We called in last week to get a quote as we noticed a sign in the window as we walked past.

The price depends on what you paid for the dress.

I would assume that if they do it, then other dry cleaners would too.

johnsons the dry cleaners dry clean wedding dresses and put them in presentation boxes for you - the one in Hillsborough had a sign up about it.

I need to get my wedding dress dry cleaned and boxed too. I'm nervous about using Johnson's as I know they send all the dresses they get to Rugby to be cleaned. Just worried in might get lost in transit. Does anyone know of a place which cleans them locally. i.e I can drop it off at the same place it is cleaned?

Just being paranoid!?

There is a dry cleaners that specialise in cleaning wedding dresses just of the roundabout in Chapeltown.They are reasonably priced also but I don't think they provide the box.

Might I suggest washing it yourself. Now I know that might sound like a scary prospect but I did and it worked out brilliantly. Took it to Johnsons in the City to have it dry cleaned and they quoted me £100 but then the lady pointed out that the label in my dress said it could be machine washed at 40 and recommended I did this as it would come up a lot better being washed than dry cleaned as they basically steam items rather than washing them.

My dress was two piece in that I had a mermaid style under dress and full length lace "coat" both with trains and put them both in the machine and they came out fantastically. I put the lace layer in a pillow case first just by way of protecting it a bit.

Ok they came out a bit creased but all I've done is put them in a box so if they come out again to be used they would need to be pressed in any case.

Take a look at the label and see what it says.

I am sure that la bella brides are starting to clean dresses, not sure of pricing though

i got a qoute from johnsons for my wedding dress valued at £500 they qouted £170 for it cleaned and boxed morrisons do it got a qoute off them they quoted £120 for it boxed n cleaned and the cheapest i found was mortons specialist dry cleaners it in phone book they qouted £100 hope this helps

anyone heard of trash the dress? apparently it's becoming quite popular in america............you literally trash your wedding dress as part of a photo shoot - get it muddy, ripped etc....................photos look stunning but could you do that to a dress that means so much to you?

I have it looks like great fun, its getting popular over here as well. I dont think I would be able to do it though lol

I've just got a letter about cleaning dresses from £69. I thought that was expensive but perhaps not! I'll find it out in a bit
