#mhcrealbrides

This week at McCaffrey Haute Couture we started a new feature for our Real Brides where we hashtag #mhcrealbrides. This allows for an interactive social media connection with our real brides once they have left the boutique with their gowns. This week we received some beautiful photos of two of our brides beautiful weddings. We hope with this hashtag, we will receive more images from all our brides, as it brings our staff so much joy!


 Nathalie's custom lace dress was definitely the show stopper at her wedding! We loved working with her to create her dream dress! Thank you to Narsete Photography for the photos!



Brianne's "Lily" dress was definitely the perfect fit for her! Thank you to Kathi Robertson for sharing these photos! Congratulations Brianne on a beautiful wedding!


Stay tuned for more #mhcrealbrides in the next couple of weeks and please send us your wedding photos so we can include you in our segment!

A Helpful Hint!


Looking to create your own custom bridal gown? Here are two very helpful diagrams that you can use when designing your perfect dream wedding dress! 

In the first image, we have our bridal silhouettes. There are five common silhouettes to choose from: Fit and flare, A-line, ball gown, mermaid and finally column. People often mix up fit and flare with mermaid, so that's why there are dashed lines to show where the two different silhouettes cut off! 



The next diagram shows the different necklines to choose from for your wedding dress. There are various different styles to choose from. There are the strapless looks which are: straight, scoop, sweetheart and defined sweetheart. Any of these can have straps added to them at McCaffrey Haute Couture! Then you also have the other necklines which are: one shoulder, round, v-neck, bateau, cowl and square!



I hope these two diagrams help you in creating your perfect gown at McCaffrey Haute Couture!!
