wedding related: how long before you put your dress away?

How long after you were married did you either preserve your dress or sell it/give it away?

I'm not ready to never see it again when I preserve it - I am just staring at it hanging up

not that i will ever wear it again....

I dropped mine off the day after my wedding to be cleaned and preserved, and picked it up the week after we got home from our Honeymoon.

Mine has been sitting in a suitcase for almost a year now in my attic. I was never really sentimental about my dress, so I don't plan on preserving it.

I got married on 9/30 and my dress is still in my closet Chat Icon I'll probably take it in a few months to be preserved.

Mine is still hanging in our spare bedroom in the packaging it came in.

We were married October 30, 2005! I guess I really should get around to having it cleaned and preserved one of these days......

It was a few months before I had it cleaned and preserved, even though it was hanging on the back of my bedroom door and depressing me whenever I saw it.

I think it was about a month before I had it preserved. I ended up donating it to Sheltering Arms last year since I will never ever wear it or need it again.

Re: wedding related: how long before you put your dress away?

It's been 2 years, 2 months since my wedding day and I have yet to preserve my dress Chat Icon DH keeps getting on my case about doing it in case one of our niece's wants to wear it...

Right now it's sitting on our cedar closet.

I think I had it done about 8 months after. I did put it on 2x before I gave it up to the preservation box.
