And remember, nothing is perfect, but keeping these tips and tricks in mind will help you get as close to perfection as possible.

Finding your Perfect Dress

Your wedding is your moment to shine. And finding that perfect dress is one of the most important choices a bride will make for her big day. To keep up with the modern bride, designers are now showcasing looks in a variety of styles and colours. “There are a lot of options out on the market now, so you can actually make your perfect dress,” says David McCaffrey of McCaffrey Haute Couture. “When brides are working with me, they don’t have to settle for second best. People like the option to create their own look that’s unique to them.” So with so many options, get creative, break the rules and choose a dress that truly says you.

Who doesn’t love a little bling, especially on the most important day of your life? Your wedding day is your day to shine, sparkle like a diamond and be the bell of the ball.

The pure fantasy and romance of special occasions; weddings in particular, inspire Monique's creations.
