Although planning a wedding can be exciting and fun it can also be very overwhelming and even a little scary.

By CK MakeupI am sure you have covered every single item hundreds of times from your venue, the photographer, your beautiful dress, food, flowers, etc all these things add up to the perfection of the big day. Have you thought about your make-up and why you would need a make-up artist on your special day?
Choosing the right make-up artist is also very important someone who will:
- Listen to you
- Someone who has been working in the wedding industry and,
- Someone who understands the pressure of dealing with emotions running wild on the day.
Your make-up is as important as the choice of gown, accessories and your hair as they all go hand in hand. All that you have left with of the big day are the memories and photographs - I am certain you want them to be as perfect as the day itself!
I always recommend a trial so that there are no surprises on the wedding day!
This will provide you with the opportunity to share ideas and cha to your make-up artist.
This is the perfect time to inform her about:
- Your theme; if you have one.
- The Colour of your Bridal Gown
- The colour of the Brides-maid dresses
- The flowers that will be at the reception as well as in your Bouquet. (And the Colours thereof)
All of the above aids in the ‘design’ of your Make-up. The Great thing about a trial is that you will be able to wear the make-up for the remainder of the day to see if it holds up or if you re-act to any of the products that have been used on application.
Make-up should only enhance your already beautiful features and since you are going to be photographed and/or videographed you want to make sure you look amazing! Make-up will assist with this since the flash of the camera tends to give people a ‘washed out’ appearance.
Make-up artist use photochromic make-up to ensure you achieve ‘true colour’in the photographs and DVD.
Until our next chat!
