It’s almost Fall, so the season of fallen leaves and autumn weddings is upon us! Wedding season is an exciting and busy time filled with celebrations, love, and cleaning up nicely. Amid all the planning, one crucial element often overlooked is ensuring that all garments and linens are flawlessly clean and pressed, from those of the bride and groom to those of the bridal party and guests. That’s where we come in: your favorite Tallahassee dry cleaner! We are here to make sure your or your loved one’s special day is one to remember and everyone is dressed to the nines. Here are eight services we offer:
1. Bridal Gown Cleaning and Preservation
The bride’s pristine and elegant white dress is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable and important optics of a wedding. Following our specific preservation methods, we ensure your bride’s gown is immaculate before the wedding and remains so for years. Before the wedding, we meticulously clean the dress for small spots or blemishes on the dress and press it to ensure it is fresh for the event. After the wedding, we use special techniques to preserve the fabric, protect it from damage, and prevent its hue from yellowing.
2. Attire for Bridesmaids, Groomsmen, and Guests
Second to the bride and groom, the bridal party and groomsmen are tasked with dressing to perfection as they accompany the couple for the hour at the altar and in photos. Coordinating their attire can be daunting, especially regarding last-minute alterations or cleaning. We gladly assist with pressing and steaming dresses and suits, whether shipped or stored and have an in-house tailor to make last-minute alterations.
3. Tuxedo and Suit Cleaning
Tuxedos and suits require special care, quite different from gowns and dresses, especially when rented. We offer cleaning and pressing to ensure suits and tuxedos look sharp as a tack and wrinkle-free, both for the reception and afterward to return to the rental company to ensure a smooth return process. We are highly trained and certified to handle all wear and tear from a long night of celebration.
4. Linen and Tablecloth Cleaning
Beyond attire, weddings often feature luxurious table linens, napkins, and other fabric decorations. Our fabric care specialists can help with pre-and post-event clean-up for materials that need to be freshened up and salvaged from stains from food, wine, and other celebratory mishaps. Whether these linens are personally owned or borrowed, we will restore them to their original, dapper condition.
5. Veil and Accessories Care
Veils, sashes, and delicate accessories like gloves or shawls all need special attention before and after the wedding just as much as the dresses and suits. We are equipped to handle your delicate fabrics carefully, as we know they are often made from fragile materials. We use specialized methods to clean and press them to ensure they retain their form, shape, and texture.
6. Alterations and Repairs
Have a quick turnaround? Weddings hardly ever happen without some last-minute fashion emergencies. We offer quick alteration services from our in-house tailor to make urgent adjustments, such as hemming, adjusting straps, and repairing snags, missing buttons, or loose threads. We can also work with these during the dry cleaning process.
7. Cleaning After Rehearsal Dinners and Parties
The wedding celebrations often begin long before the big day, with events leading up, like rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, and engagement parties. We are also here for your party attire and hosting materials, such as linens, napkins, and tablecloths.
8. Fabric Care for Honeymoon Wardrobe
Whether you are heading on your honeymoon the day after your wedding or several months after, we can help prepare your vacay wardrobe for your travels from delicate swimwear to formal dinner attire.
During the busy wedding season, fabric care services are your best friend in keeping garments, accessories, and linens looking their best- in return, your event planning will run much smoother.
