How should I store the dress before and after my wedding day?

How do I care for the blouson sleeves to keep them looking pristine?
To maintain the ethereal quality of the blouson sleeves, avoid pulling or stretching them. When storing, ensure they are not crushed or wrinkled. Professional steaming is the best way to remove creases without damaging the delicate fabric.
Does the dress have a lining?

Troubleshooting
Dress has wrinkles from storage or travel.
Gently steam the dress using a handheld steamer on a low setting. Keep the steamer moving and avoid direct, prolonged contact. Professional steaming is recommended for best results.
Buttons on the open back are difficult to fasten.
Use a button hook tool, often available at bridal shops, to aid in fastening the small, delicate buttons. Alternatively, ask for assistance from someone with nimble fingers.
A small snag or loose thread has appeared on the delicate organza.
Do not pull the thread. Carefully trim any loose threads with sharp scissors. For snags, gently try to ease the fabric back into place with a fine needle. For significant damage, consult a professional bridal alteration specialist.
The dress doesn't feel quite right after initial try-on or fitting.
It's common for wedding dresses to require alterations for a perfect fit. Consult a professional seamstress or bridal tailor for adjustments to the length, bodice, or sleeves.
Accidental stain on the fabric.
Blot the stain immediately with a clean, white cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain. Do not apply any household cleaning agents. Take the dress to a professional dry cleaner specializing in wedding gowns as soon as possible, pointing out the specific stain.
