help! : wedding gown cleaning/preservation

hi all!

definitely a newbie.  here goes :)

i'm looking to get my wedding gown cleaned/preserved.  i read all the posts associated with this but didn't find exactly what i was looking for.  i'm currently looking into WedClean as an aside though.

i'm really hesitant about sending my dress out (ie: WedClean).  i've checked into dry cleaners - some do everything in-house, others send it out anyway. 

i'd really like a reputable place that does the cleaning/preservation in-house.  NOT looking to spend a ton of money (I know WedClean is $149/gown.  I'll take a price like that! haha).

any thoughts/suggestions?  i also have read horror stories of yellowed dresses from being cleaned at the dry cleaners due to chemicals.  any places to avoid will be helpful as well.

thanks SO much, ladies!
