Wedding Dress Cleaning
Professional wedding dress cleaning is an essential step in preserving the beauty and integrity of your wedding dress, after your big day. Wedding dresses are made with delicate fabrics, intricate lace, and detailed beadwork that require specialized care to safely remove stains, oils, and marks that aren’t always visible to the eye. At The Bridal Gallery in Vancouver, we ensure your wedding dress is carefully assessed and treated using gentle, gown-appropriate cleaning methods to protect its structure and details. Whether you’re preparing your dress for alterations, walking down the aisle, or preserving it as a keepsake, passing it down in the future, professional cleaning helps keep your gown looking flawless for years to come.

Cleaning Service Cost
Wedding dress cleaning typically costs between $250–$350 due to the specialized care and attention each wedding dress requires. Unlike standard dry cleaning, wedding dress cleaning involves carefully inspecting the dress for hidden stains, treating delicate fabrics by hand, and protecting intricate details such as lace, beading, and embroidery. After the wedding, wedding dresses often contain invisible stains from sweat, oils, makeup, food, and outdoor elements that must be properly removed to prevent yellowing or long-term damage. This professional process ensures your dress is safely cleaned, preserved, and kept in beautiful condition for years to come.

Wedding Dress Preservation
Preserving your wedding dress in a specialized wedding dress preservation bag is the best way to keep your gown looking pristine for years to come. Unlike regular storage, these preservation bags are designed to protect delicate fabrics, lace, and embellishments from dust, moisture, light, and environmental changes that can cause yellowing or deterioration over time. At The Bridal Gallery, we carefully clean and prepare your dress before placing it in a preservation bag, ensuring every layer, pleat, and detail is properly supported to maintain its shape. For $75, our preservation bags provide professional, long-term protection, keeping your wedding dress safe as a cherished keepsake that can be stored, displayed, or passed down to future generations.
