After your honeymoon, it’s time to have your wedding dress dry-cleaned and stored, perhaps for future generations to wear. Here are some of the best wedding dress storage solutions, including acid-free boxes, travel storage cases and even speciality frames.
Storing Your Dress
If you’re not planning to sell your dress after the wedding, you should store it in acid-free paper inside a wedding dress box. Simply hanging it in your wardrobe or inside a dress cover in your attic is not enough to preserve it and dresses kept in this way will discolour over time. The box should protect your gown from dust and damage, insects and light. Some specialist dry cleaners offer to pack your gown for you in an acid-free box, which they will build into the price of dry cleaning but you may prefer to choose a design you love if you’re planning to keep it on top of your wardrobe forever more.
All good wedding dress boxes come in a range of sizes with acid-free paper and instructions on how to fold your gown and provide a lifetime’s protection for your beloved wedding dress.
