Can I remove my dress from the preservation kit when it arrives?

Once your dress is completely out of the Wedding Dress Preservation Kit, the 100-year warranty will be voided. However, you can still inspect your gown and view the hem without fully removing it, and we provide gloves for this purpose.

How come your pricing is lower compared to the wedding shop and dry cleaners nearby?

As a top-tier online retailer of the Wedding Dress Preservation Kit, when you buy from us, you're getting it straight from the source without any extra markups. Our service mirrors what most boutiques and dry cleaners across America offer, but with the added convenience of direct delivery to your doorstep

Why's your warranty just a century while others promise a lifetime?

Our assurance beats any other preservation company out there. When we preserve your gown, our 100-year guarantee kicks in. So, if you get your gown preserved at 25, it's covered till you hit 125 - way beyond a lifetime guarantee. Plus, we're the only ones globally who've been preserving wedding gowns for over a century, ensuring our promise stands the test of time.

Does the box for the gown ensure it's acid-free?

You got it! The display box, preservation bust, and tissue paper are all free from acids, guaranteeing complete safety for your gown.

Does it make a difference how long I've had my dress before sending it in for cleaning and preserving?

No, Jess. Bridal gowns from the latter part of the 19th century have been preserved and restored by our team. The only time you'll run into a problem we can't fix is when encountering severe fabric rot or bug/pest damage. If your dress is over 100 years old, our Wedding Dress Restoration Kit is your best bet.

Will my dress fit in your preservation chest?

We offer three different box sizes, and we've never encountered a dress that doesn't fit perfectly in one of them.

Do I need to clean my dress before sending it in?

Nope, you don't have to. Every kit we offer includes our exclusive SYSTEMK4 delicate fabric cleaning process, designed to remove stains and any existing fabric yellowing.

I'm feeling anxious about sending my dress. Has anyone ever lost a dress in the mail?

Nope, we haven't had a dress go missing in transit yet. We've gone the extra mile to guarantee your gown's safety. It's fully insured, we've provided pre-filled shipping labels, and we require signature confirmation upon delivery. Plus, it's worth noting that many local dry cleaners send dresses out for cleaning because they often lack the necessary equipment and expertise

Step-by-Step Process

How We Clean and Restore Your Vintage/Old Wedding Gown

Step 1

Choose Your Kit & Customize It Your Way

Start by selecting the Restoration Wedding Dress Preservation Kit and personalizing it. You can add your name and wedding date to the preservation chest, choose your turnaround time, opt for additional insurance coverage, and include up to five accessories you'd love restored and preserved alongside your gown.

Step 2

Your Shipping Kit is Packed & Sent to Your Door

Right after your order is placed, we put together your shipping kit and send it your way. Inside, you'll find a crush-proof, water-resistant container, a waterproof poly bag, a prepaid label, stain stickers, packing tape, an order form, and easy packing instructions, delivered within 2–5 business days.

Step 3

Wrap Up Your Gown & Send It Over

Using the materials provided, pack your gown carefully following our step-by-step packing guide. Once everything is safely packed, stick the prepaid UPS label on the outside of the box and drop it off at your nearest UPS location, or schedule a pickup at a time that works best for you. Your gown is officially on its way to us for restoration.

Step 4

Your Gown Arrives & Gets Logged Into Our System

As soon as your gown reaches us, it's gently unboxed and entered into our secure system with a unique ID and barcode. From that moment on, you can track every step of its restoration journey through our GownTracker system, keeping you informed the whole way through.

Step 5

Thorough Restoration Assessment by Our Experts

Our specialists take a close look at your gown, carefully noting years of yellowing, set-in stains, fabric wear, and any structural concerns. Every finding is recorded in detail so we can build a tailored restoration plan before any work begins.

Step 6

Deep Restoration Cleaning with SYSTEMK4 Technology

Your gown goes through our eco-friendly SYSTEMK4 cleaning process, a gentle yet powerful alternative to harsh traditional dry-cleaning. Free from toxins and fragrance, it works safely on aged fabrics and delicate materials, lifting years of hidden buildup without causing further damage.

Step 7

Hand Treatment of Yellowed & Heavily Stained Areas with PRENETTK4

Before the full clean, PRENETTK4 is carefully applied to the most affected areas — old stains, yellowed patches, and discolored spots. Our specialists work through each area by hand, gently breaking down years of buildup and preparing the gown for a deeper, more even clean.

Step 8

Gentle Fiber Revival with CLIPK4

Next, CLIPK4 works through the fabric at a deeper level, lifting stubborn embedded stains and restoring brightness to tired, aged fibers. Its anti-static formula helps revive the softness and freshness of your gown, making it look noticeably renewed from the inside out.

Step 9

Protective Finish Applied with VINOYK4

Once cleaned, VINOYK4 is applied across the gown to create an invisible protective layer. This natural finish helps guard against future moisture and staining, while keeping aged fabrics breathable and residue-free, giving your restored gown the best chance of lasting another lifetime.

Step 10

Hands-On Restoration Repairs by Our Seamstresses

This is where our restoration truly shines. Our skilled, in-house seamstresses go over every inch of your gown by hand, addressing loose beading, fragile seams, worn trims, and age-related damage. Minor fixes are completed as part of the service, and any larger repairs are discussed with you first.

Step 11

Full Quality Review Before Moving Forward

Once restoration and repairs are complete, your gown undergoes a detailed quality review. Every section is checked, including fabric condition, stitching, and overall finish, to make sure the restoration meets our standards. Only when everything looks right does your gown move to the next step.

Step 12

Hand Steaming to Bring Back Its Original Shape

Your gown is then carefully hand steamed and pressed to restore its original drape and structure. Special attention is given to older fabrics that require gentle handling, smoothing out years of storage creases and restoring the dress's natural flow of the dress.

Step 13

Wrapped in Acid-Neutral, Lignin-Free Tissue Paper

Your restored gown is wrapped in acid-neutral, lignin-free tissue paper to keep it protected going forward. This archival-quality wrapping prevents discoloration, creasing, and chemical damage, safeguarding the fabrics that have already been through so much.

Step 14

Preservation Bust Added to Hold Its Shape

A preservation bust is carefully placed inside the gown to support its form and structure. This keeps the bodice from collapsing or folding under its own weight over time, ensuring your fully restored gown holds its shape beautifully for years ahead.

Step 15

Placed Into the Preservation Chest with Care

Your gown is gently laid into a premium acid-free, lignin-free white preservation chest to protect it from yellowing, light, and moisture going forward. The UV-coated PET viewing window lets you admire your restored gown without exposing it to harmful light or environmental damage.

Step 16

Carefully Packed & Returned to You

With restoration complete, your gown is securely packaged and shipped back to your door. Every detail is handled with care to make sure it arrives in perfect condition. You can expect your beautifully restored gown back within approximately 6–8 weeks, ready to be treasured again.
