Whether your wedding is days, weeks, or months away, properly storing your wedding dress is a vital step you must take in order to keep it in perfect condition for your big day. 

Here are our 3 best tips for safely storing your wedding dress!

Don’t Cut The Hang Straps

For most of us, the first thing we do when we buy a new dress or blouse is cut those hang straps, but this is something you must NOT do to your wedding dress. 

Though it may feel uncomfortable against the skin, those hang straps were made for storing wedding dresses. 

For example, if your dress has heavy beading, the hang straps will balance out the weight and keep a sturdy hold on your dress. After you receive your dress from your final fitting, check how well it hangs from the hang straps.

Choose a Breathable Garment Bag

The type of garment bag housing your dress is crucial for protecting it from the elements. While breathable covering is ideal, here are things to keep in mind:

• Avoid plastic coverings at all costs. Because, if any moisture gets inside the bag, it may produce a lingering odor that stays with your dress.

• Cloth or cotton garment bags are a more breathable option that will protect the dress from moisture and odors. 

Keep it Dark and Dry

Think of it this way: you want to shield your dress from the world until it makes its shining debut!

That means finding a dark place to store your dress, a dark place that is also dry. Think spare room closet, somewhere out of reach from the rest of the household. 

For those who live in a smaller space, another great option for dress storage is inside a garment bag laid flat under your bed. 

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
