Wait, do I need steaming services too?
You may find that many of the folds will come right out, but chances are the gown will probably need to be deep steamed after Alterations, this is not included and will come at additional cost. Even if the dress has been hanging in the same spot in your closet for weeks, you should still give it one last steaming before the ceremony so it will look fresh.
