Whats a cheap way to store a wedding dress???

Question

I don't want to pay $100+ to preserve my gown. Especially in case I ever want to get it out again. What about using a vacuum seal bag and then putting it in a Rubbermaid tote?

Answer 1

I would at least get it cleaned by a professional cleaners you don't have t get it preserved but have then professionally put into a seal bag.

Answer 2

I don't know if that would protect it from turing yellow like a professional could, but you could try it.

I would wrap it in a sheet first, then vaccuum seal it, then put it in the tote. The sheet should keep more dirt away from it.  

Answer 3

Forgive me for not directly answering your question. But in reading it, I thought of something that I saw a couple of years ago online that might give you a moment of wow.

I do think anything vacuum sealed will work fine.

Answer 4

Answer 5

even if you don't get it preserved get it cleaned.  I had my gown preserved .... its wasn't sealed just wrapped in a bag and put into a box

On my tenth anniversary I got it out and YUCK! Big yellow deodorant stains in the pits

Answer 6

that would work, but how about all the sweat and food from the wedding and reception dinner?
