Robyn's Wedding

This weekend I did the hair and makeup for Robyn's wedding at a gorgeous castle in Newcastle Under Lyme. The Sun shone and the church bells were ringing from across the path of the castle. Robyn chose to have her hair curled and wore it down with just a little pinned back. The mother of the bride chose a sleek up style, quite different to her full curly hair she had when I arrived and the mother of the groom chose volumised curls for her hair with lots of body.

Overall was a great morning getting everyone ready and full of laughter.

All my best for a great future together x

Tessa's Wedding

Back in August I drove up to the Lakes for Tessa's wedding. The venue was beautiful, Tessa chose volumised curls for her hair, we then pinned back some with volume behind the tiara to flatter Tessa's face. For makeup we decided on a very natural glowing look. The eyeliner was slightly flicked on the outer corners and we used individual lashes to elongate the corner lashes. The individual lashes are applied using wash off hypoallergenic surgical glue.

The bridesmaids each chose individual hair and makeup styles. One chose a 1940's pin up style which was great!
