Steaming/pressing a wedding dress

[mynameis]

My dress is a little creased and wondering whether to pay to get it steamed or pressed (not sure which is the correct term)

Wondering if I pay is it then going to get creases in transit to the venue? as I'm not getting ready at home.

It's an additional expense I could do without really so some advice would be greatly appreciated

Any advice?

What fabric is it? I sell wedding dresses and I use a commercial garment steamer to steam them. If they're then hung up in a full length bag, they're fine. What area are you in? If you're on the Wirral, I'll steam it for you for free .

When travelling to the venue, put the car seats down and lay it as flat as you can. If it's silk, it may crease a bit but it will anyway when you put it on. Polyester creases a lot less.

Hey emsyj what a lovely offer but unfortunately I'm a down south girlie

The dress is polyester on the skirt
Do you think I can get away with not getting it steamed?

Whoops it's still me in a name change fail

If you're brave, iron any creases that bother you through a thin teatowel. How long has it been hanging? Creases usually drop out after a few days, but if it's already been hanging for a while and there are still some small creases, either hover the iron around it on a high steam setting, or iron it through a protective cloth such as a tea towel. I am quite wanton with my stain removal/pressing/steaming approach tho...
