Our wedding dress cleaning Atlanta service gives every gown careful, item-by-item attention. Bring your gown in soon after the event and point out any marks — makeup, food, grass or dirt along the bottom edge — so we can treat each one before cleaning. We return the gown cleaned, pressed and bagged.
Every garment sold in the US carries a care label under the FTC Care Labeling Rule, and we read it before we clean every garment, so each piece is cleaned the way its maker intended.
Leather jackets and suede coats get specialist care — see leather and suede cleaning. Drapes and sheers go to curtain and drapery cleaning. Everyday clothes are faster and cheaper through our wash and fold service, and you can book dry cleaning pickup and delivery in the app.
