The honest answer
Same museum-quality process. Same 100-year guarantee. Same hand-finished preservation chest. Here's where the savings come from.
Wedding Gown Preservation Co. (WGPC), founded in 1913, is the largest preservation facility in the country. Many local cleaners and brand-name preservation services in the U.S. quietly ship their customers' dresses to WGPC for the actual work — and charge the customer for the middleman.
Those resellers take your order, charge you $500–$700, and pocket a markup on top of what WGPC charges them. You pay for two layers: the reseller's brand and WGPC's actual work.
We've been an Elite Authorized Retailer of WGPC since 2003 — and the first online retailer ever to carry WGPC services. We work directly with WGPC's facility on every order, and the savings get passed to you.
Same museum-quality preservation. Same 100-year guarantee. Same hand-finished preservation chest. $100 less, because there's no middleman in the way.
What brides say
★ ★ ★ ★ ★"My dress was cleaned beautifully. We chose a lower cost preservation package at about $360. I tell all my friends about this company! Very easy and quick!"
★ ★ ★ ★ ★"It was much more affordable than other companies. But don't let that fool you — what I received back was a beautiful display of my dress and veil. Compared to my sister's dress (that she paid an exorbitant amount for) it was so much nicer. I will treasure it forever."
★ ★ ★ ★ ★"I used them to preserve my daughter's wedding dress. It was so easy! They send you all the packaging and information you need. Now I have my daughter's dress beautifully preserved — she can use it for her own daughter someday. I plan on using them again when my 2nd daughter gets married!"
Cost questions, answered
Wedding Gown Preservation Co. has been exclusively cleaning and preserving wedding dresses since 1913 — it’s all they do, every day. That singular focus, combined with over a century of refinement and the volume of dresses their expert technicians care for, allows for advanced cleaning techniques and efficiencies that smaller operations simply can’t match. As their longest-standing authorized retailer, we pass those savings directly to you — same museum-quality cleaning, same preservation chest, same 100-year guarantee, at a fraction of what boutique alternatives charge.
Yes — shipping is always free and fully insured with all of our services, including the shipping kit sent to your door, your dress to our cleaning facility, and your finished dress delivered directly to your doorstep.
Dresses 20 years or older are required to go through our restoration process before preservation — because aged fabric needs a different level of care than standard preservation alone can provide. Restoration includes everything preservation does, plus targeted treatment to address yellowing, brown spots, and the effects of time and storage, all completed entirely by hand. Not sure what your dress needs? Send us a photo and we’ll give you an honest assessment.
We currently ship FedEx Ground only to the 48 contiguous United States — we’re unable to serve Hawaii, Alaska, APO/FPO, or international addresses.
Processing and delivery times vary by service:
• Shipping Kit (included free with all services to send in your dress): arrives within 4–5 business days of ordering.
• Traditional or Celebrity Preservation: approximately 4–14 weeks from the day you place your order to return delivery, depending on shipping distance and seasonal volume. Peak wedding season (May–October) runs toward the longer end.
• Wedding Dress Cleaning without Preservation: approximately 3–4 weeks total.
• Traditional or Celebrity Restoration: approximately 8–12 weeks total.
• In-House Rush: add $50 to speed your in-house processing to 7–10 business days (plus approximately 1 week shipping each way).
