Thank-you!!

Good Luck The Bay (DT or Oakridge)

Both DT and Oakridge Bay offer drycleaning services by Valetor Drycleaners. You can use Bay Giftcards to pay for the cleaning!

I paid $199 (includes taxes, cleaning & preserved in boxed) for a fairly poofy silk dress. The cleaning takes about a week and the boxing is another 3 days. They cleaned it first and then I inspected it before they sent it off for preserving/boxing. I inspected it yesterday and they were able to get most of the dirt stains out from the bottom of the hem. It rained in the morning of our wedding so the hem got soiled.

I called a few places before going there and was quoted as high as $450 to have my dress cleaned & preserved. The process sounded impressive, but really, $450!!!!!

So, if you got lots of Bay Giftcards for wedding presents, this is a pretty good way of spending them.
