Here are 5 tips to give your wedding gowns a stellar look.

1. Hang the dress higher than the steamer. Having the dress above the steamer will keep the bottom of the dress from being on the ground. This allows the gown to be steamed in its entirety and prevents any new wrinkles from forming.

2. Keep the hose elongated. Stretching the hose out and up on occasion eliminates any condensation inside the hose. This will also maintain the flow of steam and give the best results.

3. Steam from the inside of the garment. Steaming from the inside helps to maintain the shape of the dress. It will also allow steam to penetrate each layer of the gown and relax the material fibers.

4. Steam the top layer separately. If a skirt has more than one layer, it is important to keep the top layer separate. This is the visible layer that everyone sees when the gown is on display. Additionally, this assists in maintaining the volume of the shape of the dress.

5. Relax. You don’t have to be a professional to use the steamer. It is intended to give a professional look that everyone can use. You will become a pro in no time.
