wedding dress preservation

[ikupoo]

Hello.

I got to roll around in the mud for my trash the dress, and now I need to erase any indication of mud so my parents won't kill me!

I called around the gown restoration companies in NY, and I was quoted $600 and up.

Can anyone recommend me any good place for me to get my dress cleaned?

I appreciate your help in advance!

Thanks for the reply. However, there weren't any recommendations on the gown preservation.

Anyone else?

It turns out that my sister is a good friend with someone who owns museum quality fabric restoration. Who knew! Their prices are about half of what was quoted in NYC. If anyone's interested, here's the info:
