Feature in LoveMyDress magazine

By shahnaz

Lovely bride Catherine from 2016,  was married at Stoke Place, Buckinghamshire had her wedding featured in The Love My Dress blog. Catherine’s uncle is the famous hat designer Philip Treacy, he was proud to be able to design a one off headdress for his lovely niece. Not even Catherine had any idea as to how this headpiece was going to look, what the style would be or whether it would work with her dress/theme etc. Uncle Treacy had it all under control and under wraps until the big day!

When Catherine had her trial with me, she had a messy, boho inspired updo in mind with braids and twists, the messier the better! It wasn’t until the night before the wedding that Catherine messaged to warn me that we will have to change the style completely. There was some pressure yes, but nothing I can’t cope with. In the end, the hairstyle had to be pinned around the headpiece without a pin in sight.

The result was amazing. Catherine rocked the old Hollywood Glam look.

Wedding at Milling Barn

By shahnaz

I have just finished beautifying the gorgeous bride Carina and her maids at The Milling Barn in Throcking – Nr Baldock. Carina chose a curly side updo, a little volume on the crown and pretty flowers to finish the style perfectly.

Carina also chose a summery flawless makeup, individual lashes and a golden glow looked absolutely beautiful and will compliment her Blush coloured wedding gown.

Ashridge House Wedding

By swalford

Here are a few pictures from a recent wedding at Ashridge House in Berkhamstead. The wedding of the lovely bride Michelle, her 6 bridesmaids, mum and aunt so a total of 9 hair and makeup’s completed in 4 hours. They all looked absolutely amazing in and no doubt had a wonderful day.

Michelle chose a smokey charcoal and silver eye, defined with lots of liner and lashes, she also wanted an elegant yet modern hairstyle that represented her fun and lighthearted personality as well as complimented her dress and the gorgeous setting.

The bridesmaids were all in a deep burgundy dress which was perfect for a Winter wedding, the rich colour commanded a strong defined socket line (eye) so we chose a gorgeous sparkly berry shade by Morphe cosmetics and a glamorous set of lash extensions to finish the look. The hair was in a side bun and adorned with a sparkly crystal and silver hair comb.

Here what the bride had to say after the wedding

2015 Bridal makeup & Hair

By swalford

collage2015 Brides-to-be should start to think about makeup and hair looks for the upcoming wedding, getting a trial date booked in is essential as you want to see how the look is going to come together on the day. The option to try various hairstyles and makeup looks is ideal because the look you initially loved might not suit your face shape, complexion and hair type.

I advise my brides-to-be, to research hairstyles and makeup looks that they like, put a scrap book/pinterest together on what they think goes with the theme and style of the wedding, wedding dress,wedding venue. The overall look must compliment every aspect of the day. I can then help create the perfect look for the bride and the bridesmaids as well as mums.

So really, if you’re getting married in the Spring/Summer you need to be having a trial soon (next few weeks) if you haven’t already! This will allow you enough time to prepare your hair and skin so it’s at its best for your special day when all eyes are on you. contact info@themakeupgirl.co.uk to book your trial.
