I'm taking my dress out with me to California my wedding. The plan is to get it pressed there on Thursday before the wedding instead of before I go so it is as nice as possible. My fmil is freaked out that it won't be enough time. I'm starting to worry.
My other option would be to bring it with me this weekend to my Bachelorette party then have one of my bridesmaids drive it another 1.5 hours to my fmil so she can take care of it... Seems like a lot to ask people and a lot of opportunity for something to go wrong.
As a note, my fmil lives closest to the venue and already have a cleaner who did her daughter's dress and a niece's dress. My family is 90 miles away without those types of relationships.
