    This thought had not even crossed my mind till the other night when i did a trial run and tried my dress on.

    My dress has some bad wrinkling in the bottom area... I am not sure if a steamer will take it out...my mom has a small handheld steamer I wonder if that will take it out?

    Is it safer to steam?

    Is anyone pressing theirs? How much does this cost and is it safe? what exactly do they do?

    Honestly, it depends entirely on what the dress is made out of.  Does it have beading.  Some dresses can actually get stained if the steamer shoots out a birst of water.  Do yourself a favor and take it to a professional.  Then you won't be sorry.

    I steamed mine but I made sure to shake out the hose in between passes so it wouldn't spritz my dress.
