Wedding Gown Preservation

Cherish the Most Beautiful Moment of Your Life, Forever

For one day in your life, your wedding gown made you shine the brightest. It holds all the happiness, the excitement, and the precious promises of that day. Your gown is not just a dress; it is a piece of a cherished memory that should last a lifetime.

After the ceremony, invisible sugar stains from champagne, cake, and more are the main cause of yellowing over time. Southwood’s wedding gown preservation is more than just cleaning; it is a professional ritual designed to perfectly protect your memories, so that when you open the box again one day in the future, you can feel the emotions of your special day all over again.

Why Entrust Your Gown to Southwood?
Museum-Quality Cleaning & Expertise Our wedding gown specialists possess dedicated knowledge and experience in handling delicate materials and embellishments like silk, lace, and beads. We care for your gown in the safest way possible, using an individual cleaning process for each dress and our 100% organic solvents.
Specialized Stain Removal to Prevent Yellowing The key to gown preservation is the complete removal of all stains, including invisible sugar-based (anti-sugar) stains. Using a specialized treatment process, we fundamentally prevent the chemical reaction that leads to yellowing, ensuring your gown maintains its pure white beauty for years to come.
True Archival Preservation After cleaning, we follow a preservation process identical to that used by museums. We gently wrap your gown in 100% acid-free tissue paper and place it in a premium archival preservation box, which provides complete protection from light, humidity, and pests.
Our Preservation Process
Expert Consultation & Inspection: A specialist personally examines the gown’s material, embellishments, and condition and consults with you.
Delicate Hand-Pre-treatment: All stains and soiled areas are pre-treated by hand to ensure removal without any damage.
Individual Organic Cleaning: To guarantee the best results, your gown is cleaned by itself in an independent organic cleaning cycle.
Final Inspection & Archival Packing: After a final inspection, the gown is carefully packed in the archival box using acid-free materials.

For the memory of a perfect day, cherish it forever with our perfect Wedding Gown Preservation.
