How to Clean a Wedding Dress: Comprehensive Guide

How to clean a wedding dress? Cleaning a wedding dress requires a delicate and meticulous approach to ensure the fabric and embellishments remain intact. At Wedding Dress Cleaning Laundry UK, we utilize both dry cleaning and wet cleaning methods tailored to the specific needs of different fabrics.

Dry Clean and Wet Clean for General Fabrics:

First, we apply a petroleum-based, oil-soluble dry cleaning agent to remove initial stains. Next, we use a water-soluble stain removal spray gun to target any remaining blemishes. Finally, the fabric is soaked in a mild chemical bath for several hours to rejuvenate and restore its whiteness.

During the cleaning process, we carefully hand-clean the stained areas. Additionally, we employ small, ultrasonic spot cleaning devices to enhance the process. These devices use steady vibrations to effectively remove stains without compromising the fabric’s structure.

Unlike traditional laundry shops that use large washing machines, we avoid such equipment to prevent potential damage caused by high-speed spinning and garment contact. Instead, we hand-clean each dress individually to prevent issues such as beading removal, pad displacement, fabric pulling and tearing, cross-color dyeing, and color mismatching. This meticulous process ensures each dress is cleaned thoroughly and safely, taking up to 20 hours.

Special Care for Fabrics such as Silk and Wool:

For fabrics that require dry cleaning, such as silk and wool, we use large machines specifically designed for oil-soluble dry-cleaning agents. If your wedding dress contains silk or wool components, please inform us in advance. For delicate silk fleece, we use specially formulated products that provide gentle cleaning. Most water-soluble stains are challenging to remove through dry cleaning alone. To protect the fragile silk and wool fabrics, we operate the cleaning devices at lower speeds, which may result in less effective stain removal but ensures the fabric remains undamaged.
