The Bridal Guide for West Fort Worth Weddings: DIY or Dry Cleaning your Gown?

While many brides start to think about cleaning their gowns the day they pick them out, there are many who don’t realize how important it is to do so until days before or after their big wedding days. That’s OK, so long as you know what’s best!

Westlake, Highland Park, Benbrook, and Weatherford wedding gown cleaners come in all shapes and sizes, just like the gowns they claim to be able to clean. But do you know the difference between DIY cleaning, dry cleaning, or even having a pro clean your gown?

If not, that’s why we put together this guide to help you navigate the decision. When it comes to cleaning your wedding gown in or near Edgecliff, Lake Worth, Westover, or Rivercrest, know that there is a difference between saving a buck and getting the job done right.

Dry Cleaning Wedding Gowns in North Texas or Tarrant County? The pros and cons:

When considering dry cleaning your wedding dress in D/FW, or even more challenging: using the do-it-yourself method, do you know what you’re missing out on? Think about:

RIPS, TEARS, OR SNAGS – If your wedding gown is damaged, will a dry cleaner know how to repair delicate lacing or beads? Can a dry cleaner repair a dress to the standard that the resale market requires if you plan to sell your gown?

STAIN REMOVAL – When your wedding dress is stained, will the DIY method work or just leave you with a gown that you’re unable to donate, sell, or pass down to future generations? If you mess up stain removal, did you know you can do irreversible damage to your dress?

INVISIBLE STAINS – Did you know that wedding gowns can suffer invisible stains, which appear months or years down the road? The DIY method won’t be helpful when it comes to identifying these!
