Dream's last minute wedding journal!

Professional is SO expensive! And to be fair- even for £45 you could get yourself a nice foundation that will look great and last? Getting my make-up done is a luxury that if I can afford at the end of this all I will do...if not im spending money on a good foundation/powder, whatever and just doing it myself!!

Hair looks beautiful hun, really elegant...
 
That's what I was thinking. I'd really love to find someone that would do it for like £30? But I don't know if I will. Thing is if I don't get one I'll have to do my mum's & sister's make up as well as my own because I'm better at it than them.

Just made all the favours :) So that's another thing off the list :yipee: xx
 
Love the hair hun, its something like how i want mine.

Make-up i managed to find a woman who was recommended to me as being really good she's £25 per person and £15 for trial. But i agree with Twigs go for a good foundation and do it yourself they charge far too much these days x
 
I mean, I'm not bad at make up I guess. What do you all think? This is the typical thing I tend to do... although would use blush not bronzer. I want to wear eyeliner because I think it makes my eyes look so much better, but is it too heavy for wedding make up? xx

i think you look lovely hun, i'm an eyeliner fan as well don't like my eyes without it x
 
Your hair looks stunning honey really suits you!
My make up cost me £40 for myself, bridesmaid and my mum which i thought was really good price it wasnt done by a pro or anything just a really good make up person. This is what you should look for! dont do it yourself because its ment to be you that is getting pampared by others and trust me it makes it look even nicer if someone else does it for you and plus you will feel better and less stressed as your be thinking of 101 things to do plus the nervous will kick in!
When is the dig day??

Hello lovely

Your hair is gorgeous. Do you have a MAC or Laura Mercier counter near you? That's what the make-up pro's usually use, and you could get a lesson from them for free if you buy a couple of products. You want to avoid foundation with SPF or glittery bits in it as this can make you look ghostlike in photos :thumbup:

4 weeks to go, you must be sooo excited, i wish you the best of luck!!!
 
Yay! Another wedding journal to stalk! :wohoo:

I'm in a quandry about make up as well... its so freaking expensive!
 
I know it's ridiculous! I'm going to do a google and then send emails to everyone I find and probably just go with the cheapest tbh xx
 
I dunno what to do for my place cards?! There's no theme as such, it's just royal blue, bows/ribbons & Roses. xx
 
Might sound silly hun but have you thought about contacting a local college and putting a notice up for one of the make-up artistry students to do your make-up??? DAD can you pm me your area and i'll have a look online see if i can find anyone for you if you want?

Are you making them yourself? x
 
Also, (sorry I just keep thinking of stuff :blush:) I don't think I've ever shown my BM dresses or anything on here. So to give you a better idea of what everything will be like:

BM Dresses: https://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wc...008010213247_-1?breadcrumb=Home~Women~Dresses

Then they have these to try and keep them a bit warmer :lol: Not that they'll do much

My flowers will be like this (but no butterflies): https://www.silkweddingdesigns.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/5e06319eda06f020e43594a9c230972d/f/i/file_52_5.jpg

BMs are having wrist corsages of ivory roses on blue pearl bracelets. x

Yeah I'm making them myself.

That's a fab idea. We have a college not too far from here, but how would I go about doing it? Area is wirral/chester/liverpool :) xx
 
I think I'm free Thursday if you want me to come round so Grace can try her dress on x
 
What about getting some ribbon and making simple cards but putting a bow through the top (not expaining myself very well)

Give them a phone and see if you could be put through to them or even pop into the college and basically say to them your looking for someone to do your make-up for your wedding would any of the students be interested?

I'll have a look now hun x
