Our wedding gown specialists carefully examine your gown to determine the most suitable method of cleaning. Throughout the process the gown is inspected again and again.

While usual gown cleaning cannot protect or guarantee against oxidation or “yellowing,” our advanced system guarantees that your gown will be as good as the day you wore it down the aisle.

Your dress is carefully sealed in an acid-free inner box that controls humidity. The oxygen is purged and replaced with an inert gas, virtually making oxidation impossible.

The sealed packaging allows you to view your gown and veil at any time, while protecting the gown from mold, mildew, insect damage and oxidation. The inner box is placed in a durable long-term storage chest for additional safety.

The service is available at all our stores. If you have a question about wedding gowns, email Arthur Anton, Jr.

Wedding gown
still perfect after 30 years

“I was married on September 6, 1980 and shortly after that date, I had my wedding gown ‘preserved’ by Anton's Cleaners. At that time, of course, never knowing if I would need to use it again. I have a number of friends who used similar services only to find that their garments had yellowed with age and became unusable. Three weeks ago, our only daughter became engaged and expressed a desire to wear my dress. I am sure you can understand what that means to both her father and me. I am delighted to report that last evening we finally opened the ‘Bridal Chest’ you packaged it in and found the dress to be in the same perfect condition and color that it was some 30 years ago! I felt it was important for you to know that your promise of ‘preservation’ exceeded our expectations. We are most appreciative of the integrity of your company’s promise.”
