1. Introduction

[1.1] It is the Website Users responsibility to ensure the following Terms and Conditions have been read, and understood before proceeding.

[1.2] By using this website, your consent is implied to the following Terms and Conditions.

[1.3] By using our Website and services, the User represents and warrants that they are at least 18 years old, and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement.

2. Service Standards

[2.1] The Client gives the Business consent to clean their dress/items, and any other items the Client submits to the Business, for cleaning purposes.

[2.2] The Business may use any process or methods of cleaning deemed appropriate.

[2.3] Any items submitted without care labels will be cleaned entirely at the Client’s own risk. The Business will ensure every reasonable precaution has been taken to ensure its safety, whilst in our care. Items with care labels still carry a risk, which the Business cannot be held responsible for.

[2.4] The Business cannot guarantee the removal of all marks and/or stains from dresses/items as dresses/items are often created from very delicate fabrics which may be easily bruised or lose their colour when subjected to excessive stain treatment and agitation.

[2.5] The Business guarantees to take all reasonable steps to ensure optimum results are achieved whilst the Client’s dress is in our care. A clean and stain free dress is achieved in 95% of cases.

[2.6] It is the Client’s responsibility to understand that pre – existing damage to any dress can often be masked by staining, and may only become noticeable once the dress has been cleaned. Typical and common damage may include, but is not limited to:

– Loose (dangling) and/or missing beads/embellishments

– Scuffs, bruises, clicks, snags, pulls, holes and tears in fabric

– Loose, broken and frayed threads – broken stitches

– Missing buttons and damaged button loops

– Damaged lace.

[2.7] It is the Client’s responsibility to understand that it is not always possible for the Business to be able to remove any foreign objects which may be caught and entangled in the fabric of the dress, (particularly around the bottom hemline). Fluff, hairs, carpet fibres and organic matter from walking on grasslands etc. cannot always be removed during the cleaning process, and should be picked out very carefully.

We will take every reasonable precaution to remove any foreign objects by hand. However, we cannot guarantee full removal, if we feel it may damage the fabric.

[2.8] It is the Client’s responsibility to remove all attachments/embellishments that are not suitable for cleaning, prior to entrusting it into our care.

These may include but are not limited to: all detachable trims, buckles, buttons, belts, confetti, pins, sequins, crystals, beading, belts, brooches, badges etc as-well as any items left in pockets.

The Business cannot be held liable if any attachments not suitable for cleaning, have not been removed by the Client.

[2.9] If we are receiving your dress/items, for a ‘Pre-Wedding’ Clean, we advise that cleaning is undertaken prior to any alterations taking place. Although it is rare, there may be a degree of ‘relaxation’ on some fabrics, depending on the material.

[2.10] Despite preventative safeguards and measures being in place, there is always some risk in any cleaning process. Threads that are extremely weak may break through no fault of our own and intricate beadwork and other embellishments may come into contact with each other, leading to loss or damage. In the unlikely event of this, we will do our best to rectify any issues.

[2.11] There is a risk that pulls, catches and abrasions to fabric may worsen during processing; this may result in holes appearing where pulls, catches and abrasions once were due to the fabric being weak and unstable in that area. The Business will take every reasonable precaution to prevent this, but cannot be held liable in the event of this occurrence.

[2.12] The Business cannot take responsibility for loss of glitter, or glued details, which may become detached during the cleaning process.

[2.13] Wedding Dresses are designed to be single-use, special occasion, dresses. Therefore, they are not intended to be repeatedly cleaned. In very rare cases, fading, shrinking and texture changes may occur. In the event of this occurring, the Business cannot be held liable.

[2.14] It is the Client’s responsibility to inform us of the age and condition of their dress prior to our collection. For example, older dresses will be more prone to breakages, fabric tears, etc.

[2.15] Any footwear is cleaned at the Client’s risk, and subject to the same conditions outlined in this document.

[2.16] Any advice the Business provides, is based on individual experience only, and cannot be taken as factual. It is the Client’s responsibility to ensure any decisions they make based on our advice, are at their own risk. The Client is responsible for the consequences of any decision they have made.

3. Compensation

[3.1] In the event of loss or damage to an item, due to our negligence, (excluding the items mentioned above), the Business will compensate the Client in line with the Fair Compensation Guidelines provided by the Textile Services Association.

In this instance, the Client’s deposit may be retained as an administration charge, and any other orders may be subject to another deposit.

[7.2] Once your dress/items are ready for delivery, the Business will contact the Client to arrange a suitable time to deliver the dress back into their care.

Whilst the Business will strive to meet these dates, delays may occur due to unforeseen circumstances which the Business cannot be responsible for.
