Wedding Preservation Tips Every Bride Should Know

Your wedding day is filled with unforgettable moments, so it's important to take steps to ensure your special wedding items last as long as your memories.From your gown to your bouquet, taking care of your wedding keepsakes can ensure they remain in pristine condition. Here are five essential post-wedding preservation tips every bride should follow:

1. Preserve Your Wedding Dress

Your wedding gown is likely one of the most significant pieces of clothing you’ll ever wear. After the big day, take your dress to a professional cleaner as soon as possible after your wedding. They will clean it to remove any stains and help store it to prevent discoloration and damage over time. This way, you’ll be able to pass it down to future generations or simply admire it for years to come.Learn more about wedding dress preservation here: https://drycleaningca.com/blog/wedding-gown-preservation-tricks-and-tips/ 

2. Preserve Your Bouquet

Your bridal bouquet is another precious keepsake that you can preserve in a variety of ways. Floral preservation services can professionally press or dry your bouquet, creating beautiful artwork or turning the flowers into resin keepsakes like coasters, jewelry, or decorative pieces. 

3. Preserve Your Wedding Photos

Your wedding photos are one of the best ways to relive the magic of your big day. To ensure they stand the test of time, consider creating a high-quality wedding album or a personalized photo book. Also,  make sure to store all your digital photos on multiple platforms such as cloud storage, external hard drives, or USB drives to avoid losing them. 

4. Preserve Your Wedding Guest Book

Your guest book contains meaningful messages from friends and family that you will want to keep safe. Consider turning your guest book into a coffee table book or storing it in a protective case. You can also have a digital version made if you used a creative guest book alternative, such as Polaroid photos or video messages.

5. Create a Wedding Capsule

A time capsule is a unique way to preserve other important smaller keepsakes of your wedding day. Include items like a copy of your wedding vows, a special note to each other, a wedding favor, and invitation (etc.). Seal it in a box and decide on a future date—such as your 10th anniversary—to open it together and relive your wedding day in a fun and nostalgic way. From your dress and bouquet to your vows and jewelry, taking these extra steps will allow you to revisit the joy and love of your wedding day for many years to come.
