Keeping The Dream Alive
How do I safely store my wedding dress for a long period after the big day?
Meet the expert: Giselle Hulme is the director of The Empty Box Company based in Tavistock, Devon, who has been creating handmade wedding dress boxes for 35 years.
Giselle says: With everyone feeling the pinch at the moment, couples are well aware of any extra costs for their wedding. But keeping their treasured memories alive is a priority, so storing the bridal gown, and other expensive accessories in handmade wedding boxes to preserve them and keep them in perfect condition for years to come is essential.
We often hear about clients who stored their wedding dresses in a wedding dress box many years ago and the gowns are now being worn by the daughter of the bride - with a few modern style alterations!
Our latest designs include a William Morris print (pictured) that was used in the latest series of the television series Bridgerton
Whether you’re thinking of keeping your dress or selling it, it’s an investment to keep it well-protected and prevent discolouration in a wedding dress box, and to prevent it from moth damage. We also sell all kinds of matching accessory boxes for your keepsakes, from shoes to headpieces, plus travel boxes if you’re getting married abroad with prices starting from just £45.
