I was thrilled when I had a call from Emily asking me to do her bridal hair and makeup for her wedding in May this year.
As soon as I met Emily, I knew she was going to have a very bohemian wedding in her hometown of Frome, Somerset. Her, and her soon to be husband, both work in the music industry, so it was bound to be a fabulously cool affair.
When Emily arrived for the hair and makeup trial, we spent time together chatting about all her ideas for the style of the wedding. She had planned to wear two dresses throughout the day, one for the daytime and the other for the evening reception. I absolutely loved the style of the dresses, and they suited Emily’s petite frame perfectly.
For the hair styling, Emily wanted something very simple as she has a perfect blunt bob, which only needed a bit of movement added to achieve the style she wanted.
I used the hair straighteners to bend the hair in the middle section, without taking the heat to the tip. This created just the right amount of movement throughout the hair. Emily wore the most incredible flower crown which elevated her style and complimented her elegant dress. I just love the colours and big blooms!
For her makeup, Emily wanted bronzed summer skin, with plenty of luminosity and glow. I used a dewy Chanel foundation with my favourite Becca pallet to highlight and contour her skin. We decided to enhance her eyes by using some lash clusters to add length and volume to her lashes. I also added definition to her eyebrows with Glossier Boy Brow, which Emily also loved.
We used Emily’s own vegan lipstick to complete the look. I think you’ll agree, she looks absolutely incredible!
