Ironing my dress?

i would say all local cleaners down there and let them know you are flying in and need your dress steamed in 24 hours. some places might send that kind of stuff out and not do it on site so its best to make they can do it in 24 hours before you make any decisions.also most cleaners tell you to pick up your stuff in a few days so you might need to tell them its a time crunch and make some sort of reservation ahead of time so they are aware as to whats going on.then if they can do it in 24 hours i would take the dress with you especially since the wedding planner doesnt seem to be too reliable...i wouldnt want that dress out of my site for too long lol

I'd say that the local dry cleaner is a better option if you know that they can do wedding gowns. Some places know how, some don't. Even if it's just pressing there could be problems, and you'd have to have a melted or dissolved skirt. Make sure you find a place before you go, I would recommend online if your person at the other end isn't being helpful.

To where would you be shipping it? Just to a dry cleaner? You want to know a reputable dry cleaner before you go either way, so shipping it there in advance doesn't really require more foreknowledge. Check that the place you're planning on using will accept the dress in advance, that might end up making your choice for you.

Steam it, don't iron it. Invest in a little hand-held steamer (they have them at Target and places like that) and then hang up the dress in the bathroom when you get there and go over it with the steamer thing. It will take all the wrinkles out but you won't run the risk of ruining the delicate fabric, as you would with an iron. If you don't trust yourself to steam it, have one of your relatives who is handy with that sort of thing do it for you, but steaming is the best way to go, for sure.

Invest on a garmet steamer.

You can DIY and not have to worry about shipping your dress or dealing with unknown dry cleaners.

A garment steamer can cost $59+ and they have travel size ones too.

Good luck

EDIT: Try a professional garment steamer. Certain brands work better than others. Tulle might be complicated since it's mostly nylon. Hmm.

PS2/ Do not iron it. It will burn the tulle.

If you don't know anyone there that can recommend a good cleaners then I would wait, It only needs to be steamed and shouldn't take long at all, however they might want to charge for a rush job. I would ask the people at the hotel where you are staying for their recomendation.

Call ahead to the hotel you are staying at and ask if they have that service available. If not ask them for a reputable place and then call ahead to make sure they will have enough time to do it.

I think sending it ahead of time would be better ONLY if you can look at users reviews from this place. If not just take it in, they shoul be able to press it in that time.

Para limpiar la casa he tenido que tener un extra de cuidado después del nacimiento de mi hija, mi aspirador aunque era bastante bueno, también comprado en los sitios web, hacia un poco de ruido y así que he tenido que comprar otro, después de un transporte a tiempo, el aspirador vale más que su precio, además de tener todos los utensilios y una gran capacidad de absorción es muy silenciosos, ni no te das cuenta que el aspirador esta en marche, una compra perfecta.

steam it, no not iron!

run the shower hot for a while and have the dress hang in the bathroom witht he door closed. then run your clean hands over the dress to flatten the wrikles.
