wedding dress cleaning and preservation?

Hello ladies!?

?I just got married on March 14 and I'm looking for a good cleaner who does great work cleaning and preserving wedding dresses in the metairie/new orleans area. Any recs would be very helpful and most appreciated!! I found Wedding Gown Specialists LLC on Transcontinental by doing a google search. Anyone ever used them?

?Thanks in advance for the help!?

Re: wedding dress cleaning and preservation?

  • I checked with OneCleaners on W. Esplanade (by Transcontinental) and was quoted over $500 for cleaning and preservation of my dress.  My dress isn't anything fancy, but it is a ballgown with a cathedral train.  I was really surprised by that amount.  Anyway, I ended up using WedClean.com and I was really happy with the results.  I know it's not local, but it was more affordable ($200) and I read all good reviews for them before deciding.
  • thanks for the idea! I will have to look into wedclean.com more... i also got this rec from theknot message boards! ps-i remember ?you from theknot boards... congrats on a beautiful wedding!
  • I used the shop on Transcontinental and they did a good job.
  • I used wedclean.com too. I was really happy with them.
