Make-up Trial

I have hired Candice French to do my make-up, along with the rest of my bridal party.  I had my trial with her and she was awesome to work with.  I let her know my likes, dislikes, how I wanted to look like myself but better, and she really listened and did an amazing job.  Below are some before and after pictures.  (Please excuse the faces I am making) 

Hair Inspiration

My Cousin in going to do my wedding hair, but she is in Arizona, thus unable to do a trial until the week before the wedding.  I wanted to get an idea of what I like, and would look good.  So, my regular hair stylist offered to do a trial for me and take lots of pictures so that I can send them to my cousin.  Below are pictures of is my inspiration, all from Project Wedding. 

Hair Trial

I did a hair trial with my regular hair dresser so we could get pictures for my cousin (who who will be doing my hair the day of.  I am really happy with the way it came out. 

Hair Accessory

I don't have a picture of it in my hair, but I made a few combs that will go in my hair.  I made one originally and then my hairdresser though it would be a good idea to have the design throughout the 'gap' that my veil will fit into.  They can be found in my DIY Section.

Jewelry

I made my own day of jewelery.  I really like the way it came out.  During my second fitting, I brought along to see if it "went" with my dress, and it looked great!  The seamstress commented how she really liked it too! This can also be found in my DIY Section.

Veil

I ordered my veil through ebay, it is much prettier then I expected.

Shoes

Picture



I found these shoes that follow most of the criteria I needed in a shoe.  They needed to be comfortable, flat, and 'blue'.  They meet each of the criteria, but I am not sold on the bow yet, I may have to work on that.
