Frequently Asked Questions

Do you pick up wedding dresses in Southeast Wisconsin?
Yes. We provide free pickup and delivery throughout Kenosha and Racine Counties. Our drivers make regular trips from our Naperville, IL facility to serve SE Wisconsin brides.
How soon after my wedding should I have my dress cleaned?
We recommend within 1-2 months. Stains from wine, makeup, grass, and perspiration set deeper over time. Even invisible sugar stains from champagne will yellow if left untreated.
What is included in your wedding dress preservation?
Every preservation includes professional hand cleaning, stain removal, detailed inspection, wrapping in acid-free tissue, and sealing in a museum-quality pH-neutral preservation chest. We provide photos of your cleaned gown for approval before preservation.
How much does wedding dress cleaning cost?
Pricing depends on your gown’s fabric, embellishments, and condition. We provide fair, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. Call (414) 250-7825 for a free quote.
