Pro wedding dress flipper since 2016 ~ Only sharing tried and tested products ➕ Details & Tips in the CommentsI use all of the following to care for my gowns & refurbish worn dresses.Although I am a professional, these are all household-level items that perform at a professional level and can benefit you in other ways.I also try to keep things budget-friendly and cute ~ because let's be real, no one wants to put their wedding dress in an ugly overpriced bag or outdated box. Some people are SO scared of preserving, cleaning, or even steaming their wedding gowns, but with a little bit of know-how, you don't have to be! Save the bank, steam it yourself the night before your wedding. Clean at home - it's eco-friendly and cost-effective. Pack yourself for peace of mind. I hate to say it, but no one cares as much as you do about your wedding dress. Sadly, some dry cleaners don't at all.Bonus for the brave budget brides ~ BUY USED and then use these tips and tutorials on my website to bring that wedding dress back to brand new. If you're one of my lovely colorful brides, GET OUT OF HERE. Just message me, gown cleaning is on the house, I got you covered to keep that work of art prime.
