Wedding dress storage boxes are excellent in preventing unnecessary stretching and fading that occurs over the years. It also helps prevent oxidation.<\/p>\n<p>What is oxidation? It is the slow reaction to the sugar component of a stain with the oxygen in the air. Over time, the untreated stain will yellow and in extreme cases, turn brown. Oxidation is the same chemical reaction that causes a partially eaten apple to brown when left out on the counter.<\/p>\n<p>The primary consideration for brides is how will the shoulder area fare when not preserved. Wedding dress designs tend to stretch in the shoulder areas with time, so it&#8217;s recommended that wedding dress preservation be done within a 2 year period.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Wedding Dress Preservation Options:<\/h3>\n<table class=\"aff-table\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 873px;\" cellpadding=\"20\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 211px;\">\n<td style=\"height: 211px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1126 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/gundersonfamilycompanies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/anna-docking-208457-unsplash-1-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"wedding dress preservation bag\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundersoncleaners.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/anna-docking-208457-unsplash-1-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gundersoncleaners.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/anna-docking-208457-unsplash-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundersoncleaners.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/anna-docking-208457-unsplash-1-768x510.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"height: 211px;\">\n<h4>Muslin Wedding Dress Preservation Bag<\/h4>\n<p>Muslin bags are a great option for protecting your wedding dress, however we do highly recommend a wedding dress preservation box for long term storage.
