A typical wedding gown at Meurice is actually cleaned three separate times. Our wedding gown preservation is a painstaking, labor-intensive process. We treat each problem area (including garment repairs!) by hand to ensure the textile can last indefinitely. Next, our finishers press and iron the gown by hand, carefully following the designer’s lines and the gown’s seams. Our inspectors then evaluate the dress to ensure you’re receiving it in better condition than when you purchased it from the bridal salon.

“Last December my mother passed away. I got engaged the very same day. While it was bittersweet, I knew I wanted to figure out a way to incorporate my mother into my wedding. I planned to wear the dress she was married in.
When I opened the box it had been in, it was a nice shade of brown. Not exactly the wedding white I was going for. I found Meurice through reviews and read about their process of restoring gowns.
When I brought the dress in Marc said they would take good care of it. Parting with it was hard but he put me at ease. When I went back, the dress was white, gorgeous and again, bittersweet. My mom would have been proud to see me in it... From NY Magazine.
