Boxing your Dress for your Destination Wedding

Everything is planned, you have found your dream dress and the flights are booked.

How are you going to get your dress to your destination wedding?

The Boxed Bridal TRAVEL BOX offers the perfect solution.

With your dress carefully packed between layers of tissue paper in one of our study protective boxes it is now your hand luggage and can travel with you, safe and sound in the cabin of the plane.

The Travel Box is available in a range of sizes and complies with most hand luggage restrictions, including budget and schedule airlines.   Available in a range of beautiful exclusive designs, complete with a cord carrying handle, the Travel Box is convenient and certainly adds some style to the luggage.  If you are planning to keep your wedding dress after the day your Travel Box will double as the perfect storage box after it has been cleaned to keep your dress preserved for the future. The boxes provide a pH neutral environment which means there is no contact with acid or alkali which would cause yellowing or discolouration as the years go by.

We regularly check airline luggage allowances, but would also recommend that you visit your airline website or speak to your travel representative for confirmations. Below are some examples of hand luggage allowance.

Airline Max Size (cm) Max Weight (Kg) Travel box suitable
British Airways 56x45x25 7Kg Standard or Medium
Easy Jet 55x40x20 5Kg Standard or Medium

Providing a clear unobstructive packing area and utilising every corner means that brides are constantly amazed that their dress will actually fit quite comfortably into the box and in most cases, require little attention before the big day – which is our ultimate aim.

Our medium box is suitable for simple column dresses or similar with few layers. Dresses in this style appear to be the most popular for a destination wedding, but don’t let travelling limit your choices. Larger dresses will be suitable for our standard travel box. This size is the equivalent of your roll on roll off hand luggage suitcase. These boxes comfortably accommodate a-line dresses with a few layers of petticoats and even pintucks and ruffles. If you are unsure which size box your dress will need please contact us and we will advise you.

Travel Box Dimensions (cm) Price

Vintage PearlNew for 2012 Vintage Pearl. This beautiful box design changes in the light from an almost invisible pattern to a shimmering design reminiscent of lace with glistens of oyster and pearl. Tied with an ivory satin ribbon for preservation or cord for travel, this is a perfect design for showing off proudly wherever you place it at home as it will go with almost any decor.

OtterlyOtterly. This is a bold design in champagne and burgundy with striking prints of flowers and foliage. The satin ribbon used on this design is a rich burgundy shade which complements the design perfectly. The travel box in this design is secured with a carry cord in the same rich tone.

DauphineDauphine. A delicate design with a duck egg background and gold flowers tied with a luxurious ivory satin ribbon. The carry cord on the travel box in this design is the same shade of ivory.  A very traditional bridal look suitable for old romantics and the new vintage alike.

CopiaCopia. Quite a modern take on a traditional floral design in an almost dot to dot style. The colours are a cappuccino background with charcoal grey outlines and a latte satin ribbon for preservation or carry cord for travel to finish the design.
