That stunning gown you wore as you stood by your best friend’s side deserves better than the back of a dark wardrobe. Whether it is a gift to a bridesmaid to treasure the big day forever or a treat for your own cherished wardrobe, our specialist services are designed to breathe life back into your gown and restore its original lustre.
By choosing professional bridesmaid dress cleaning, you protect delicate fabrics and intricate detailing from "invisible stains" and long-term fabric degradation.

Select the level of care that best suits your needs, whether you are preparing for a future event or creating a lifelong keepsake.
Option 1: Bridesmaid Clean & Box Package
The ultimate preservation solution for those who want to protect their beautiful gown for years to come.
Premium pH-Neutral Preservation: We provide a luxurious, handmade dress storage box lined with acid-free tissue paper. This specialist environment prevents the "yellowing" effect often caused by standard cardboard or plastic covers.
Boutique Hand-Finishing: Every dress is professionally steamed, meticulously pressed, and elegantly folded into the lace-lined box.
Signature Presentation: Your gown is finished with pH-neutral tissue and a signature "Love" satin ribbon, making it a beautiful, shelf-ready keepsake.
Option 2: Bridesmaid Clean Only Package
The perfect solution for those who want their gown professionally restored without the commitment of a permanent boxed package.
Professional Hand-Pressing: Your gown is meticulously steamed and pressed, ensuring it is returned crease-free and ready for its next journey.
Safe Short-Term Storage: To maintain the results, your dress is returned in a premium breathable garment bag.
Bodice Protection: We use pH-neutral tissue paper within the packaging to protect the bodice shape and delicate finishings during transit and storage.

Timescales
Our turnaround time can vary, but we endeavour to have all dresses completed within eight weeks of receiving your dress in-house. Priority orders are completed in ten working days from receiving your dress in-house to receiving a provisional dispatch date.
Once your order is placed, our team will dispatch a pack to you within two working days which includes an inner packing bag, an outer packing bag, shipping labels and instructions on how to package your garment for collection. Then, simply let our team know when you’re ready for your collection to take place.
How do I book my collection?
To arrange your collection, simply email us at info@thedresscleaningcompany.co.uk stating your preferred collection day and we’ll take it from there.
NOTE: Our collections fall on Mondays and Tuesdays only – this allows us to receive your garment in-house by the end of the week.
Will I receive a collection timeslot?
Collection timeslots are one hour long and normally occur between 9am and 5pm. This slot is determined by DPD and cannot be changed – we recommend booking your collection for a day yourself or a representative will be able to stay in at any time. You will also be able to track the driver as they make their way to you via the DPD collections portal.
What is your current turnaround time?
Our timescale can vary based on our level of business, but our average standard turnaround time is eight weeks from receiving your garment in-house. Our turnaround time for Priority orders is ten working days from receiving your dress at our workshop to receiving a provisional dispatch date.
What happens when my dress is completed?
Once your dress is completed, we’ll send your After Images with a proposed dispatch date. Once you confirm this is suitable – or let us know you require a different date - we can book you in with DPD. Just like your collection, you’ll be given an hour-long timeslot on the day of delivery.
