What is a buckle maid?

(This is related to a wedding, but I have no idea in what capacity.)

What is a buckle maid?
I have NO idea and I even googled it - no luck. I'm going to save this question in my favorites so I can come back and see if anyone knows the answer. Now I'm curious.





EDIT: There are several entries for a buckle MATE, are you sure you didn't hear it wrong?

Reply:Apparently it relates to a person hired exclusively to attend to the wedding dress after the wedding festivities and make sure it is properly preserved for the bride...thought you could just take it to a cleaners to have that done, but some people have more money than they know what to do with! Report It

Reply:no clue, but I'll be watching to see what kind of answers you get.
Reply:Maid's whalebone buckle, also draws on the traditional image of Christ as a "stone"....
