Dress Cleaning Help!!!

I bought my wedding dress from a bridal shop in NJ because it's a discontinued line and I had to have the dress, the dress was totally me and I was in LOVE with it. The only problem is, is that it was a sample dress so at the bottom its a little dirty and needs to be cleaned. Does anyone know where I can take it to have it cleaned and how long it will take and about how much it usually can cost? I'm looking for someone who will do a good job on it and not ruin my dress! Please Help! Smile

    I bought my dress at the running of the brides and it needed significant cleaning on both the bottom hem and the top from so many people trying it on... my seamstress recommended Signature Cleaners in Billerica (99 chlemsford rd).  They were awesome - they asked for a few weeks to give them enough time.  one thing, the owner (who is the one who does the cleaning) recommended to me, which you should totally do, is do the cleaning, then take it to a seamstress (if you need a reccommendation on one let me know) and then take it back to be pressed - since they clean and press the dress that way you wont ruin the pressing if they need to work on it and get it pressed again.. total cost is $125 (i paid half after the cleaning and will pay the remainder after the pressing).  cleaning took 2 weeks, pressing will take like 3 days...  HTH!
