I Need Help Big Time

Knottie_22382423

I just bought my dress this past Saturday, but I'm not getting married for a little while. well the dress isn't at my house, because I'm a smoker & I live with smokers. so the dress is at my sister in laws. but I really want it here. she has two little girls & needless to say I don't want it over there until then. I scared something bad will happen to it. So does anyone know how I could properly store it until the big day? and should I keep the dress in the same garment bad David's bridal put it in or buy something better? and if so what is the best one to get? I would greatly appreciate it.
We haven't set a date. & I know that if its in a house with smokers that it will effect the dress, that's why it isn't here. I bought the dress because I'm ready for us to start planning, to get the ball rolling. because if I don't then its gonna be years and years away. and as for family the only ones that live here are his family all mine live far away

Are you really getting married in 2016 and already have a dress? I'm not trying to be rude, but that's really not a good idea. Don't look at any other dresses now, you'll end up with regret in a couple years.

As for your question, do you have any other relatives or FMIL that you could borrow some closet space from?

If you're not getting married for three years, no matter what kind of bag you keep your dress in, if it's in a house inhabited by multiple smokers, that's almost certainly going to have an effect on it eventually. Keep it somewhere else.

I would NOT store it in a home where there are smokers. It will yellow, and sometimes, it will discolor beyond repair.  I would lay the dress in a cool box and put it under a bed of someone you trust that isn't a smoker.
