What Is Wedding Dress Preservation Really — And Is It Worth It?

Your wedding dress is more than a beautiful garment. It is part of your love story. It is the dress you said yes to, walked down the aisle in, celebrated in, and made memories that will stay with you forever. But after the big day, many brides wonder what to do next.

At Baytowne Bridal, we believe your gown deserves to be treated with care and preserved with love. That is why we offer trusted wedding dress cleaning and preservation kits through The Wedding Preservation Company. This service helps protect your gown so it can be treasured for generations to come.

Whether you hope to pass your dress down, repurpose it in the future, or simply keep it safe as a keepsake, preserving it is the best way to make sure it stays just as beautiful as the day you wore it.

What Is Wedding Dress Preservation?

Wedding dress preservation is a special process that goes beyond regular dry cleaning. Your gown is gently cleaned by trained professionals, minor repairs are made if needed, and it is placed in a beautiful preservation chest designed to protect it from yellowing and fabric damage over time.

What Is Included in the Preservation Kit:

• Professional cleaning by certified specialists

• Minor repairs such as loose hems or missing buttons

• A timeless preservation chest with a viewing window

• Room to include up to five additional items at no extra charge (such as your veil, belt, garter, or gloves)

• Free roundtrip shipping with full tracking

• Two thousand dollars in insurance coverage with upgrade options

• A 100 year guarantee

• 
  

This is not just a way to store your dress. It is a way to honor your memories and preserve the joy and beauty of your wedding day.

If you are not ready to preserve your dress but want it cleaned professionally, we also offer a cleaning only kit. It is perfect if you plan to sell or repurpose your gown or simply want it freshened up after the celebration.
