Hallak Cleaners - Gown Preservation Specialists

when it came to cleaning & preserving my daughter's wedding dress, which was actually mine ( redone for her) , Hallek was the only one I considered using...They also cleaned my dress which was very expensive & quite ornate ( with a lot of detail ) & it came out beautifully..I was very pleased!

Living 2000 miles from your wedding location can be daunting. The logistics of getting the dress from California to NY the week of the wedding , with a week stay in NJ gave me a headache. I asked around and several leading dress shops recommended Hallak, and I am so glad I selected them.

They are complete professionals and handled every aspect of shipping, pressing and preserving my dress. Donna coordinated with the concierge at the my hotel, and I arrived at my hotel suite to find the dress pressed to perfection. Their day of emergency kit truly useful.

After the wedding I returned the dress to them for preservation and everything was beautifully done.

It was such a relief to be able to depend on them, and to know that I did not have to worry about the dress at all.

One of the best decisions I made.

If you don't bring your wedding dress to Hallak, it will for sure will be ruined! I had a problem with a bustle they created for me, but they fixed it no charge! YOU NEED TO SPEAK UP IF SOMETHING IS WRONG! They don't have ESP and cannot tell if something is wrong with what they did for you. I was reading the other review about them and how she said they were horrible, I bet she never called them cause I bet they would have done something for her for free! My friend had her dress done by the corner cleaner and it yellowed in less then a year because of the plastic window or something. Hallak took it in, fixed it up, and now my friend and I are still customers for our better clothing. These guys are the best at what they do and I recommend them to everyone everywhere!

I was so happy that I had an experience with Hallak Cleaners .The boutique was specious and carry all kinds of gorgeous pieces. And I loved atmosphere in it - very relaxing and stuff is very helpful.

I am so lucky to have found Hallak cleaners for my wedding dress alterations! I had purchased my dress in Feb for my Sept wedding and brought it for alterations to another dressmaking shop in Midland Park, NJ. The woman held my dress prisoner until August 16, when I went for my fitting she had CUT the bottom unevenly AND too short, took apart the beaded bodice and just completed messed up my gown (and then had the nerve to scream in my face not to criticize her work and that I'd have to deal with it because it's a hard dress to work on!). In a panic, I was trying to find someone to fix my dress which was now too short and too small 1 month before my wedding date!! I called a couple places and Hallak cleaners was the only place that told me that we could make it work in time. My mother & I brough my dress in that day and Kiymet very calmly looked at all the problems that needed to be fixed--2 days later I came back for a fitting to see if the length could be fixed and it looked better already. I went back for 3 more fittings in the next 2 weeks and the dress was absolutely perfect! Kiymet had taken my dress home to complete all the work on time and completely reconstructed my dress!! She also hand beaded the back piece that goes behind the corset to make it go with the front of the dress! Kiymet is the ONLY REASON I have something to wear down the aisle next weekend!! She also fixed my mom's dress and my maid of honor's dress, both which were vandalized by the same dressmaker that ruined my gown. I highly recommend going to her first before chancing it with someone else!!!!!!!!!!!

Hallak provided a very professional experience. They were expensive, but I felt very well taken care of, and the entire experience was excellent. I brought them a vintage dress from the 1960s, which I had already had altered to fit me, and they were able to clean it and restore some of the oils to the lace. I highly recommend their bride's "kit," which has lots of little emergency tools for the day of the wedding, and also includes a substantial discount off their services.

I chose Hallak to clean and preserve my dress because it was the preferred vendor of the salon where I bought my dress. They were always very helpful, flexible, and professional. The day before it was due back, I called to confirm its arrival and I was told everything was on schedule.

That day, I called again to check for something else and was told it was NOT scheduled to go out until the following week. My first reaction was annoyance, but immediately when I explained that I had taken a day off to receive the package, they told me they would courier it out that day. They even called me when the deliveryman was on his way. Very helpful and thoughtful service!

My only real gripe is the price. I just can't feel good about spending as much money as I did to preserve my wedding dress. But what I do like is that I'm encouraged to open the box and look at my dress, and even take it out every few years to refold it. In contrast, most other places I talked to insisted that it stay sealed or risk voiding the guarantee, which always sounded kind of shady to me.

The size of the box is quite large - far too large for my liking in my NYC studio apartment. But that probably has more to do with the dress, so Hallak can't be faulted for that.

If you have the money to spend and want to be sure the job is done right, go with Hallak. They have excellent, friendly customer service to go with their reputable service as wedding dress cleaner and restoration experts.

I had a wedding dress that I wanted to fix up and I originally took it to a tailor who said that what I wanted could not be done. Luckily, I found out about Hallak cleaners and they fixed my dress exactly the way I wanted it. She even gave me advice and was willing to work with me over and over until she got it exactly how I wanted it. Thank you Hallak cleaners. I will be back!

My wedding dress is from 1872, and I was the 7th bride to wear it in our family, so it definitely needed special care when it came time to getting it pressed before the wedding. Hallak Cleaners was recommended to me by the Association of Wedding Gown Specialist, and I was quite pleased with the recommendation. Hallak's shop is based in NJ, but they sent a messenger into Manhattan to pick up my dress for free and gave me a free quote! They were open to working within my budget, which was wonderful, and they did a fine job pressing the gown. And the customer service was spot on. Thanks Hallak.

I was very disappointed with my bridal alterations from Hallak cleaners. The bustle broke and not onyl did I spend a lot of time trying to get the dress to bustle, but I had to safety pin my dress up at the reception. I will not be recommending Hallak cleaners to anyone looking for wedding dress alterations in the Bergen County area.

Hallak cleaners created a bustle for my dress -- one main one, and one backup, and both broke immediately on my wedding day. They were a huge pain in the ass to deal with and I had a BROKEN dress because of them on my wedding day. I hate this place.

An amazing company that specializes in preserving one of your most treasured garments - your bridal gown. Totally professional and sticklers to detail, you'll also find their customer service is second to none. Recommended!
