i have my dress and it needs no altering...how is the best way to store it? Hanging it up in a bag...or keep it in the box it came it? I am worried about it getting creased....

If you keep it hanging up it will stop creases. I hung mine up and covered it in bed sheets to keep dust off. If it gets a bit creased hang it in the bathroom and put the shower/bath on really hot so the room gets very steamy. The creases will drop out.

Make sure you don't hang it right in a window or something, you wouldn't want it to get faded. That's where the bedsheets come in handy. I used clothes begs to pin the sheets to the hanger and each other so nothing touched the dress.
