How do I find a good wedding dress cleaner and preserver?

Preserving a gown is a bad idea. Many gown preserving operations are little more that frauds -- they make you pay a lot of money, they rarely clean the dress well, the often put gobbs of chemicals on the dress, and then they put the dress in a box which is easily eaten by bugs.Think if you really want to keep the dress for the rest of your life. You'll never use it again, and chances are your daugther won't either. Many charities would love to have your gown. That way a bride that couldn't normally afford such a beautiful dress could walk down the asile with pride. If you really want to keep the dress, get it dry cleaned and put it in a garment bag along with some ceder.
