Post-Wedding
We understand how daunting it is to entrust your most treasured item to someone else to care for which is why our veteran wedding gown specialist and his highly trained team individually hand treat and clean each gown. We specialize in caring for all types of wedding gowns from heirloom, to vintage to custom made. Your gown is skillfully inspected for stains and delicately cleaned to maintain its structure and silhouette and to ensure the like-new condition.
GreenStreets provides Museum Quality Wedding Gown preservation and is a member of the Wedding Gown Specialist Association. GreenStreets is the only Certified Wedding Gown Specialist™ in San Francisco. We offer a written international guarantee honored by GreenStreets and all members of the association - represented in more than 500 cities around the world.
Cleaning
To best address any spills or stains, it is very important to clean the gown immediately after being worn. Stains that soak for longer than 48 hours are more difficult to remove. Once your gown is cleaned, it is hand pressed to restore the like new finish.
Pressing
Our specialist hand steam presses your gown to make sure all wrinkles disappear, that every pleat or crease falls naturally, and the hemline has a clean soft fold. Areas with beading or buttons are carefully addressed to avoid any damage. After the meticulous pressing, the draping and lines of the gown will fall just as the designer intended.
Repairs
Anything can happen on your wedding day. Missing buttons or beading, or a torn hem or zipper are no exception. Our professional seamstress will repair the gown with the skill that would be expected of a 30 year veteran.
Preservation
After your gown has been cleaned and pressed, we encourage you to come and inspect your gown before we place it in our acid-free museum quality preservation paper board chest. Your gown is skillfully folded with layers of acid-free tissue, to prevent creases and wrinkles from developing. We add additional tissue in the box to ensure that the gown is in place and there is no room for movement. The chest has two lids, one with a plastic window so that you can view your gown, and a sturdier lid meant for use during storage.
Honeymoon + Shipping
We will arrange to have your gown picked up at your destination wedding or honeymoon location (anywhere in the US) and shipped to our plant where we will clean and preserve your dress. We will ship a box to your location and work with the concierge to have your gown gently folded and packed into the shipping box. It is insured and shipped directly to our plant where we will carefully clean and preserve the gown for you. Upon completion (or upon your return from your honeymoon), we will deliver the gown to your location of preference.
