Where did you get your dress preserved and how much did you spend?

I searched for a specialist on https://weddinggownspecialists.com/content/locator then I looked at the reviews of the ones near me.

I'm paid $300 to get mine cleaned and preserved. They used acid-free tissue to protect my gown and sealed it in a premium-quality box with an acid-free acetate window for viewing.

Dress Preservation

When I took mine to the cleaners after the wedding, I asked about the preservation and they charged $165 and it took about a week. Just having it cleaned was $135. I opted out because I am still debating on having the dress completely changed into a different style so that I can wear it again.

DB does it for $99

I had mine cleaned, pressed, and preserved in one of those boxes at a local dry cleaners - Tide Cleaners. I believe it was around $225 and varies depending on your dress style. Mine was very simple (not a ballgown or intricate details).

Most alterations locations also offer it or can give recommendations. I think the place that altered my dress offered it for around the same price range but I wasn't thrilled with their alteration services and they were a farther drive so I just used a regular dry cleaner.
