Miss McVay Becomes Mrs. McBay as Meagan and Chris Wed at the Opulent Scottish Rite

Miss McVay Becomes Mrs. McBay as Meagan and Chris Wed at the Opulent Scottish Rite

During a night out in Dallas, thanks to a friend’s not-so-subtle nudge, Chris McBay mustered the courage to approach Meagan McVay. “He asked me out on a date, and the rest is history,” says Meagan. After five years together, Chris decided to get down on one knee amidst the snow-kissed New York City trees on a wintery day in Central Park. For their spring wedding on March 30, 2019, Meagan and Chris envisioned a timeless and classic affair, paired with chic accents. The couple chose an opulent venue, adorned with gold accents, for Miss McVay to become Mrs. McBay.

The Rite Fit

Meagan admits that she fell in love with Scottish Rite from the moment she saw it. “The architectural details in the white walls, the dainty chandeliers that hang down like tassels, and the gorgeous columns makes for such a romantic setting,” she says.

Personal Touch

The original satin buttons that lined the back of Meagan’s gown were replaced with more than 100 Swarovski crystal buttons.
