Shhhh.. Somebodies getting married!

Que suspenseful music.. dun dun duuuun. (Is that how you spell Que? Cue- Q, isn't that how you spell the Spanish word for "What"? Well you get the point. I hope. ) No make that- some sort of action movie music.. Okay, play whatever kind of music you want in your head. Whatever puts you in the mood for a secret elopement. I'm not sure how much I'm suppose to say, and not say- so I won't. I'll just talk about this gorgeous bride, and her hair and airbrush makeup.
I met Sarah when she came to my home for a trial. I t was a dark and stormy night, and she was dressed in dark shades, a trench coat and some sort of mafia, Frank Sinatra looking hat. Okay fine, so not really. I think she had some super cute knee high boots. I digress.
So we did her hair trial and all of a sudden she busts out this adorable bird cage veil she found for a steal at an antique store. Be still my heart. I lurve birdcage veils!
So on her actual wedding day, which was a gorgeous Monday morning- we did natural, beachy airbrush makeup and full sexy curls, with her bangs swept back and some to the side. It was an easy day. A. because she's gorgeous as it is, and B. Because she was just so nice. Loved her.
So Sarah, I wish you and Andrew the best!

Amy (May 2009)

Amy found me via my sister Wendee with Lucies Events. I had only talked with Amy via phone calls and emails and never actually did a trial with her. So on the day of, I was a wee bit nervous but this definitely wouldn't have been the first time I've done a trial-less wedding. Once entering her hotel room, I KNEW my job would be a piece of cake. The girl is gorgeous! I was certain I could throw a bow in Amy's hair and then blow some powder on her face and I'd be done! BUT, we decided to go the professional route.
I ended up doing Amy's moms hair that day as well. But for Amy we did loose curls with natural makeup and darker lips. The weather was rainy and VERY humid. Which is always a concern for girls with naturally straight hair. Luck was on our side and her hair held up rather well! Thanks for being so awesome Amy!
I snagged some photos from her photographers site. Thanks A Bryan Photo!
