Wedding Garment Bag

[Tia529]

I've read that keeping the dress in the vinyl garment bag that the dress shop gives you can discolor your dress.  I remember someone mentioning that they purchased a special garment bag for their dress, and I was wondering where to get one and what specifically to look for.  Has anyone bought a garment bag?

I bought a bag on Amazon.com. My tailor put a thick white plastic over my dress, then we put that in the colored garment bag, to ensure there wouldnt be any color bleed and to essentially "waterproof" it. The bag my dress came in was very similar but I felt like you could see through it a little too easily, so I went with one of our wedding colors!

 

Here is the description:

Great question as I will need some help with this as well.  I have read that some people ordered their bag through the mens warehouse.
