This kind act is not out of the norm for Louise Flaherty, who was a dedicated mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Louise loved her family more than anything and enjoyed spending time with her granddaughter Morgan and Morgan’s daughter Evelyn during their weekly shopping trips and coffee dates. When Morgan and her husband first got engaged, Louise was so excited and could not wait to do something special for the wedding.
Morgan got married on July 28th, 2022 at Independence Harbor in Assonet Massachusetts. Morgan said I do in a stunning gown by Allure Bridals, fitted perfectly to her body by our expert seamstresses. Her strappy sheath gown had a delicate lace overlay and breathtaking train with a nine-point bustle made for dancing! The finishing touch was of course the veil paid for by Louise, which was such a simple yet meaningful tribute that made sure Louise’s memory was honored on Morgan’s special day.
We are honored to have had the opportunity to work with Morgan and are so grateful that we were able to help Morgan keep the memory of sweet and vivacious Louise alive.
Rest in the Sweetest Peace, Louise.

Morgan’s Review of Ve’Lace Bridal & Team:
I’ve told anyone who will listen about my fabulous experience here- starting with Mary Jo! Dresses are not my thing in general and I went into my initial appointment nervous, uncomfortable, and positive I wouldn’t have a successful appointment. Mary Jo made me feel like a QUEEN. She knew exactly what I wanted and what I was feeling and did everything she could to make me happy. I can not stress enough what an asset Mary Jo is to Ve Lace.
Shadia has a reputation of being the best of the best- something I was told by previous brides and friends long before I was even engaged but nothing could have prepared me for the experience I had first hand. My grandmother (who was the most special person in my life) passed unexpectedly a few weeks after coming with me to my initial dress appointment. When Shadia had me try my veil on (that my grandmother purchased for me) at my follow up appointment I was so overwhelmed with emotions and definitely ugly cried. Afterwards, the girls at the desk informed me that they had credited my account the cost of the veil because they thought my grandmother would want to assist me with the cost of alterations if she was here. To have Shadia take the time to acknowledge my emotions and show an interest in who my grandmother was as a person during a routine appointment is something I will never forget.
I can’t remember the name of the woman who did my alterations but again, one of the greatest people I’ve met during my wedding planning process. My after baby body is something I’m not totally in love with (yet). She made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. My dress fit like a glove. My 9 point bustle looked gorgeous. Everyone complimented my train. I could go on and on…..
I almost wish I was getting married again just so I can hangout with these ladies again
