A Vintage Look

By shahnaz

On the 12th December Laura’s wedding took place at the Node in Codicote, Hertfordshire. Camilla and I arrived bright and early to have the bride, 3 bridesmaids and mother ready for the ceremony at 1pm!

Laura chose a vintage finger wave style with a low chignon at the back! The make up was very dewy and Laura certainly looked radiant. Here is a picture of the blushing bride (more pics to follow)

Thank You

By shahnaz

I would like to thank  my loyal clients and friends who have been very understanding and sympathetic this past week. My father-in-law passed away suddenly on the 11th Dec and it has been a tough time for the whole family.

It has been a tough week as I have had to continue to fulfil my obligations and provide a professional service to all of my brides as well as be there for my husband, so thank you all who have made life as easy as possible!

Here’s hoping 2011 brings good health and luck for everyone.

Winter Wedding at Tewin Bury Farm, Welwyn

By shahnaz

Today I went to see my bride Kimberley bright and early at Tewin Bury Farm Hotel in Welwyn! It was a chilly minus 3 degrees outside and plenty of the white stuff on the ground which looked so beautiful and no doubt will look fab on the bride and grooms pictures!

I absolutely fell in love with the dress it was sparkly with delicate embroidery and set on a lovely netting which reminded me of vintage Hollywood glamour!

Here are a few snaps of the wedding preps!

Thank You From A Very Happy Bride!

Here’s a lovely thank you note from Stephanie who got married at Tewin Bury farm in October!

“Thank you so much for your work on the day. We were all delighted with our hair and make-up. I can’t believe it lasted so well and you couldn’t see my coldsore at all which was amazing! Camilla was lovely too. I would definately recommend you to anyone who was looking for wedding hair/make-up- very professional and excellent results”

Bride Of The Month

By shahnaz

Natasha got married on the 24th July in Hemel, Hertfordshire and it was an absolute pleasure in helping Natasha create her dream hairstyle and make up look! The brief was to achieve a flawless finish using the minimum amount of base and eye make up my bride wanted to keep it natural but have enough impact to wow her guests and of course the groom. I’m happy that I helped in making Natasha’s wedding day even more memorable.
