After the wedding, many brides choose to have their dresses preserved. We work closely with Wedding Gown Preservation Co., who take care of cleaning and preparing the garment for you. Dresses come back in an acid-free box with a beautiful display window, so you have a wonderful heirloom piece for years to come! All preservations are backed by their 100-year guarantee.
Our History
Wedding Gown Preservation Company was founded in 1913 by Sara and Joseph Schapiro in Endicott, New York. Sara and Joseph specialized in the preservation and alteration of wedding gowns. Together, they created the family formula which is still in use today.
We are now a third generation family-owned business operated by the Schapiro family. We have had generations of brides preserve their gowns with us.
Our Process
Our cleaning methods have been proven and recognized by the International Fabric Institute as the best methods in the gown preservation industry.
We pride ourselves in the highest standard of quality and care of bridal gowns in cleaning and preservation.
Our Mission
To preserve your memory.
