I want to sell my wedding dress & wedding ring set, how should i do it?
i have a nice wedding dresses embroidered with beads & pearls, very pretty, and also a set of rings (man's, petit engagement, and wedding band, all with small diamonds in the band) but the women's wedding band was cut off my finger by the paramedics. i want to sell them all, as i have been divorced, but not sure what the best course of action would be. i'm sure i should get the dress cleaned (but it's not stained or anything), but should i get the ring repaired or sell 'as is'? and where would be the best place to sell them each?
How close to my actual wedding day should I take my dress in for bustle, spot clean and final press?
I want my dress to be as fresh and ready to go as possible. I heard that is should be like 2-3 weeks before, why is that? Does it even matter. Would a month out be too far? Need advice from those who have experienced, thanks.
Has anyone had any experience they can share buying a preowned wedding dress?
My wife to be is shopping for wedding dresses, and we are considering buying a preowned wedding dress. However, we are a little uncertain about it. Some of the sellers do not show the actual picture of the dress on the auctions. On other sites, some of the sellers are unwilling to meet with us to let us see the dress before deciding to buy. In one of the cases, a seller mentioned that the dress was never cleaned but on after we asked. Has anyone had any positive experiences or words of advice they could share regarding the purchase of a preowned wedding dress?
How should I store my wedding dress?
I've been married for a couple years now and I looked at my wedding dress and it has 2 small stains from some of the wedding cake that dripped onto my dressSo Im getting it dry cleaned like it says on the label. How should I store it once its clean? I have those vacuum space bags that vacuum the air out, should I use that or just leave it in the garment bag it came with?

I had my wedding dress cleaned but there is still a stain?
Shortly after my wedding two years ago I brought my dress to a bridal shop and had it cleaned and preserved. They put it in a special box and I have been storing it in my closet ever since. I recently decided to sell it and when I opened it up today the first thing I saw was a yellow spot on the bodice (not there when I gave it to them) and deodorant marks in the armpit area on one side. Additionally, there were still some grass stains under the train and dried grass floating around the box. Does this sound right?my wedding dresses I understand not all stains come out but shouldn't they have told me if the deodorant stains were unable to be removed? And isn't preserving it supposed to prevent the yellow marks? Should I bring it back to the store and complain? I don't feel I can sell it in this condition and I'm really upset.
Can you hand wash a wedding dress?
My wedding dresses is all sweaty from my wearing it in 95 degree weather. I took it to the cleaners, and they said it can suffer damages AND it'll cost $150-200 for dry cleaning. Personally, I'd rather just store the dress for the rest of it's life all sweaty, but I'm supposed to wear it at our coming home wedding reception on Saturday. Is it possible to hand wash my dress? Any tips for cleaning otherwise? It's made of taffeta, with a lace up bodice. Thanks!
