Cacky's Bride Aid

I cannot say enough good things about Cacky! From steaming the bridesmaids dresses to making sure that even the groom looked 100%, she does it all! Not only did Cacky help me get dressed for my first look with my dad at the hotel, she accompanied me to my venue to help me get ready for my first look with the groom. She transported my dress and veil to the venue for me, and made sure every detail was perfect. Cacky was with me every step of the way, traveling all over my outdoor venue with me to help with pre- ceremony photos with my groom and bridal party. Cacky always made sure my dress and veil were fluffed and beautifully positioned for the photographers. Even when I had a makeup emergency in the Charleston humidity, she was ready to help with touchups. My wedding day went by flawlessly, and much of that is owed to Cacky! My mom and I were able to enjoy my wedding day stress free without having to even think about my dress or putting in my veil. As a bride, you want to be able to enjoy those special moments with your mom instead of worrying over the dress, and Cacky allowed us to enjoy the moment. As my groom said, she truly is the keeper of the dress!
I truly did not even realize how much I needed this service until the wedding day, and I am so happy she was there. Cacky has such a sweet and calming presence, and I will be forever grateful to her.
If you are getting married in Charleston, Cacky is MUST for your wedding day!

I was so nervous to have a destination wedding so it was really important that we had someone the day of to help with steaming, emergency alterations, and helping me get into my complicated but very beautiful wedding gown. In the morning I was feeling a little stressed and Cacky was so amazing that she gave me the BEST shoulder massage! She was able to get rid of my stress headache and really helped me feel at ease. She was very careful with our dresses, my bridesmaid robes, and my dress and veil. She also steamed the ribbons that we used to “Tie the Knot”. I couldn’t have made it through the morning without her and we are all very thankful that she was there! If you’re getting married in Charleston I HIGHLY recommend hiring her and having her spend the morning with you!! She is incredibly sweet, patient, calm, and has such bright energy about her!!

A “bridal assistant” or “bride aid” sounds like a luxury (did to me anyway) but I can assure you she is a necessity! I didn’t know we needed her until we had her! I didn’t realize the extent of her services! She wears many hats in addition to her “tool belt”. Her tool belt is full of magic acts-she can sew a hem or lace or a bead, pin anything…etc. she even tied the bow ties for the groomsmen.
She was a calming force for my daughter, the bride, and helped her with every aspect of dressing (pressed her very wrinkled dress) , rearranged her attire even helped her pose for her pictures – things that nobody else thinks about doing!!
She is worth her weight in gold …she doesn’t weigh much but she’s worth a lot! Oh she’s also calm, fun and personable!! We formed a bond with her in just a few hours and were sad to say goodbye!

Cacky’s help at our daughter’s wedding was invaluable, and not just to the bride! She steamed and ironed all the bridesmaids’ dresses which had been packed in suitcases and our daughter’s wedding dress which was still in its box from New York. She helped me (the MOB) with my dress, fixing something that would have shown up in all the photographs. Even more, my left heel kept coming out of its shoe. I didn’t know how I was going to walk down the aisle. (Even though I had stuffed the toe with a Kleenex.). However, Cacky “dived into her bag” and immediately fixed the problem. I walked down the aisle and danced…with the shoe fitting perfectly!! Cacky even helped repair one of the groomsmen’s Coats. Cacky was not a “luxury;” she was a necessity! And, she is a thoroughly nice person!

Cacky’s services are priceless. There is no other way to put it. She helped with everything from getting ready to massaging my feet before dancing! She steamed every single dress and we never asked her to do anything! She thinks of things before you know you even know you need them! It takes what could be a stressful time and diffuses it making it feel carefree. All you have to focus on is having fun and leave Cacky to do the rest! I contacted her right after I got engaged before we even booked a wedding planner! Not to mention – she’s one of the nicest and most fun people to work with.
