    Default Wedding dress cleaning and boxing.

    I've seen a few dry cleaners offering the wedding dress cleaning and boxing service and thought that might be a great way to surprise my wife without sleeping with her sister. Do any of you have experience with the wedding dress cleaning and boxing service? Less than 3 months before the next anniversary.

    You've either been talking to my doctor or my girlfriend.

    "Hey honey, I dug the dress that you haven't looked at since our wedding out of the back of the closet, paid someone a bunch of money to vacuum pack it and box it, now you can throw it in the attic and go back to never looking at it again. Happy anniversary!!!"

    I've watched Chess boxing before but now this? These new sports are getting out of hand.

    This x100.

    It’s super expensive to have done and I promise you you will never look at it again.

    Anniversaries are a scam. Who could ask for more than another year with you?

    Cum stains barely show up on a wedding dress in the first place. Why bother cleaning?
    You take that savings and invest it in a good FleshLight.

    Wife did this probably 15 years ago. It's in the storage room with other boxes all over it.

    Thanks, this was the only helpful reply, but I did like the comedy from others. I didn't know it would be money out the ass. Mission aborted.

    Have you seen the price of a fleshlight in Calgary? That's some expensive human-rubber.

    We also did it and that box is in a garbage bag (in case of flooding) in the crawl space piled with other boxes.
    But... It was important to her and it made her happy, so it got done and would've been a deal at twice the price.

    Sometimes I find happiness sitting in a car and making it go vroom-vroom, so who am I to say, "Bitch - if you think putting your wedding costume in a box is worth something, you should've warned me that I was marrying a retard."
    I'm no better than her.

    Yeah on a serious note, if it's meaningful to her, there are many worse ways to spend the five hundred bucks or whatever.

    I honestly have no idea if my wife even kept her wedding dress. I haven't seen it in the basement storage area, but maybe? Maybe she sold it too, have no idea.

    Different shit is important to different people.

    What is the upside to keeping a wedding dress, other than something to put on when she goes crazy when her husband is lost at sea and she launches herself headfirst down a staircase and haunts the house for generations after? You only ever see wedding dresses on two occasions: weddings and on ghosts of women widowed when their husband's ship sinks.
