Wedding Dress Storage - Before Wedding

I had my wedding dress made in China. When in arrived it was basically in a big ball, and the dress was inside out. The dress is gorgeous, however I need suggestions on how to store it. My wedding isn't until July 1st. Please help with any suggetions. Thank you!

    I would store it on a hanger with a garment bag on it but either leave the bottom open or open if often to let some air in it. If it is really heavy, you could lay it flat somewhere with the garment bag over it.

    Before your wedding, I suggest you get the dress steamed. It will get all of the wrinkles out of it for the big day. I took my dress to Dublin Cleaners (they specialize in wedding dresses) even though I am not sure where you are in Columbus. There are other cleaners around that also do dress steaming/pressing.

    They have breathable dress bags at David's Bridal for $10...I don't know if you have to get your dress there to buy one, but it's worth a shot.
