| Handy Hints for the Bride |
| Press dress before wedding |
| Arrange for a dry cleaner
to press your bridal gown before the wedding day. Atlas Dry
Cleaners can do this for you free of charge. |
| |
| Dress & Make-up |
| Place a pash mina scarf
over your head while dressing. This prevents make-up and mascara
accidentally staining your gown. |
| |
| Go before you dress |
| Don't drink excessively
on your wedding morning and use the bathroom before dressing.
Manoeuvring in a confined space will prove difficult and you
may mark or damage your gown. |
| |
| Drop sheet |
| Ensure your photographer
has a sheet to place on the ground for you to stand on, if you
are having photos taken in a park or garden. Grass and mud stains
will spoil your gown and may prove difficult to remove during
cleaning. |
| |
| Dress protection |
| Ensure the driver of the
bridal vehicle has a towel to cover door locks and hinges, while
you are getting in and out of the car. (Grease and snags will
damage your gown). Also arrange with your driver to have a cold
drink available for you in the vehicle. |
| |
| Dress stains |
| Should someone spill red
wine on your gown, don't use salt, soda water, vinegar, etc
in an endeavour to remove the stain, as this will serve to set
the stain. Just dab the area with a napkin and let Atlas Dry
Cleaners attend to removing the stain. |
| |
| Press dress after wedding |
| Arrange to have your gown
cleaned as soon as possible after the wedding. This will improve
your chances of obtaining a 100% result in the cleaning and
preservation of your treasured possession. |
