Important Questions to Ask About Wedding Gown Dry Cleaning Before You Call or Visit

With the exhilaration of finally locating “THE dress”, you did not stop to consider much beyond having alterations performed in time for your wedding day. Now that you and your spouse have returned from your honeymoon, an important question has surfaced regarding its future care. You may be wondering,” Is wedding gown dry cleaning safe?” The answer is, well, yes and no. As with most important processes, having your wedding dress cleaned is not a decision to be made on cost alone, nor convenience of the dry cleaner’s location to your home address. In this posting, Cameo by Copeland Cleaners, renowned throughout Manhattan for decades as the dry cleaners of choice, wants you to know the following questions. These are important to ask, even to our wedding gown dry cleaning professionals, so that you have insight into our processes. Our goal is to ensure that your gown is thoroughly, yet gently cleaned and restored to pristine condition to be enjoyed for years, even generations, to come.

At Cameo by Copeland Cleaners, we treat each of our employees, as well as our clients, as family. We fully understand that your bridal gown represents more than just a financial investment, but also an emotional one. Most brides have dreamed about their wedding dress since they were children, so it is especially important to locate a dry cleaning establishment that is not only trained in the latest delicate fabric handling techniques and uses up-to-date equipment, but also takes a vested interest in their clients. When you contact our experts, we will prompt you to ask the following questions:

Do you outsource my wedding dress or do you clean my gown in-house?

Cameo by Copeland Cleaners processes each and every bridal gown entrusted to our care on our premises. Moreover, your wedding gown dry cleaning will be performed by our staff who have been with our firm for years and have considerable experience and expertise in caring for bridal finery.

What will it cost to clean my gown?

Whether you bring your gown to Cameo by Copeland Cleaners or arrange for its pickup and delivery, it will be assessed by our experts. Understandably, the price will vary based entirely on several factors. These include: the fabric the gown is made from, type of embellishments, if any, condition of the gown, stains, grime, rips, or tears, missing findings, broken zippers, etc. Prior to beginning any work, you will be appraised of our estimated cost, and once we have your consent, your gown will be professionally cleaned and restored.

Does the price for wedding gown dry cleaning include preservation?

Wedding gown dry cleaning and bridal gown preservation are two separate services the experts at Cameo by Copeland Cleaners are happy to provide. We highly recommend that you have both services performed at the same time, as once thoroughly cleaned, the preservation process is the next logical step. Should you decide to wear your gown at a future vow renewal or preserve it for future generations, preservation processes ensure your bridal gown will be immaculate and ready-to-wear for years to come.

Does your firm offer storage services for my wedding gown after it has been cleaned and preserved?

That is an excellent question. Yes, Cameo by Copeland Cleaners not only provides expert cleaning and preservation services, but we can also store your gown upon request.

At Cameo by Copeland Cleaners, you and your garments will always be treated with respect and personal attention. To learn more about our wedding gown dry cleaning, preservation, and storage services, we invite you to contact our professionals today!
