Wedding & Special Occasion Ironing — Because Every Detail Matters

Expert handling for the outfits that mean the most. Washed, dried and ironed with exceptional care.

Wedding & special occasion ironing service

Some outfits are worn once in a lifetime. A wedding dress, a bridesmaid dress worn on your best friend's big day, a suit for an occasion you'll never forget — these deserve to be handled with genuine care, not rushed through a machine.

Our specialists treat every garment as if it were their own. We take the time to understand the fabric, the detail and the occasion — then wash, dry and press each piece with the precision it deserves. Whether it's a bridal party of ten or a single suit for a milestone event, we're here to make sure you look exactly as you imagined.

What's included

Free Collection & Delivery

Free for orders over £20 — a small fee applies for smaller orders. Drop-off is also available by prior arrangement.

Items are returned within 48 hours as standard; longer lead times apply for complex bridal party orders. Payment on delivery by bank transfer or cash.

Garments We Handle

We handle wedding dresses (please contact us first — see below), bridesmaid dresses, suits (jacket and trousers), dress and formal shirts, blouses and occasion tops, mother-of-the-bride and mother-of-the-groom outfits, page boy suits and flower girl dresses, and formalwear for graduation, christenings, funerals and black-tie events.

Wash, Dry and Iron

All garments are available as wash, dry and iron — not just ironing only. If your outfit needs a full clean before the occasion, we can take care of the entire process and return it pressed and ready to wear.

How Garments Are Returned

All items are returned on hangers in biodegradable, reusable protective covers — ready to go straight into the wardrobe or onto the rail.

Wedding Dresses

We iron wedding dresses but ask that you contact us before booking. Wedding dresses vary significantly in fabric, construction and embellishment — silk, lace and heavily beaded gowns require specific handling. We'll confirm whether the dress is suitable for our service and advise accordingly. We do not offer dry cleaning.

Bridal Party Orders

For orders covering a full bridal party, please book at least one week in advance to ensure we have the capacity to turn everything around in time.

Frequently asked questions

Can you iron my wedding dress?
Yes — for most fabrics. However, wedding dresses vary greatly in construction and material. Please contact us before booking so we can advise on whether the dress is suitable for our service and how to handle it. We don't offer dry cleaning — if your dress is dry-clean only, please consult a specialist.
Do you offer washing as well as ironing?
Yes — we offer a full wash, dry and iron service for all occasion garments where the fabric allows. If you're unsure whether your item can be washed, check the care label or contact us and we'll advise.
How far in advance should I book for a wedding?
For individual items, 48 hours is usually fine. For a full bridal party order — multiple dresses, suits and accessories — please book at least one week in advance.
How are garments returned?
All items are returned on hangers in biodegradable protective covers. If you have specific presentation requirements (e.g., items needed in a garment bag), please let us know at the time of booking.
Are my garments safe?
Every specialist is fully vetted, trained and experienced in handling delicate fabrics using professional steam equipment. In the unlikely event of any damage, our compensation guarantee applies.
Can you handle children's formalwear?
Yes — flower girl dresses, page boy suits and other children's formal items are all within scope.
Do you offer dry cleaning?
We don't offer dry cleaning at this time. For dry-clean-only garments, please consult a specialist dry cleaner.
