[Mrs Gibbo]

My underwear didn't match either I had an Ultimate Strapless Wonderbra in Nude and my Australia knickers that my Mum bought me!

 

[Mynx]

Mine wont be matching either.. I'll be wearing a strapless Triple X boost bra by La Senza, a waist cincher/girdle type thingamebob and frilly red and white knickers

So done lots today.

I brought my wedding make up, so am going to try it all out a bit later on, hopefully it looks better then what ive done before. It should do as ive brought primer, conealer, blusher, loose powder, eye stuff and lip gloss... so girly

Went and got our 2 remaining button holes, which were for OH's dad and my dad's grave. However, they had a change in suppliers, so nothing they had was an exact match to what we already had but we sorted it. Both our dad's (my step-dad) with have to two new ones. Then my dad's for his grave will have the older one. So hopefully if people do notice, then we can say we did it on purpose so that the dads had matching ones.

Have ordered my diamante headband, my banqueting roll for the tables, my green table sparkles, sample of the organza table runner, and debating whether to order some ballons. Thinking of just blowing them up, and tieing them along some ribbon (so it kinda looks like bunting) and put them around the hall. Might add a bit of colour in.

6 weeks and 6 days to go!!!!

 

[honeybee2]

my undies wont match either- I have a wonderbra in nude and ava loves vintage panties!

 

[hakunamatata]

I love your dress. You're beautiful.

I also love to wrap presents!

 

[michyk84]

just read your whole thread love everything the flowers are beautiful & your dress is stunning

 

[Shabutie]

Aww thank you, prob didnt take long to read Bit slack on the whole journal thing

 

[Shabutie]

So i tried to do my wedding make up last night, and it was bloody horrible. Going to have another try now, fingers crossed it works okay. Think I will be practicing every night for the next 6 weeks!

 

[Mrs Gibbo]

I didn't splurge on much for the wedding but I did pay for a make up artist! I'm not great with make up and can only do eyes Besides it was quite nice to just sit there with bucks fizz and let everyone else run around!

 

[Shabutie]

So i just look very pale with make up on...

Would a darker foundation make me not look pale in pictures? Because it looks fine otherwise.

Mind you i think my foundation has SPF, or whatever it is, could this be the reason?

Please help

 

[Mynx]

I've read somewere that SPF in foundation makes you look whiter.. something to do with the flash bouncing off it Might be worth trying a foundation that doesnt have SPF in it hun

 

[Shabutie]

Yeah, i just had a look online, and it says SPF makes the light bounce on your face, and you look like a ghost

It looked okay without the flash. Ill post some pics. Just when I get my eyes right, the face is wrong. lol.

 

[Shabutie]

First is with the flash, second is without flash and directly under and light bulb (ignore how big my nose looks in the second one )

 

[Mynx]

Considering there's SPF in your foundation, it hasnt ghosted you out as much as I thought! The makeup looks fine hun, I like the pink blush you've used Definately try a foundation without SPF tho and see how that comes out in piccies

 

[Shabutie]

Thanks, I feel like Ive got a face full of slap on... ive never worn foundation, powder, blush, lip gloss before, so its all new to me! Wasnt sure whether to use blush seeing as my cheeks are red enough, but I think it makes it look more natural and blended in Will deffo have to get some without it in. Would a darker foundation help too? or just the SPF? Sorry for all the questions

 

[Mrs Gibbo]

You look hot! I'd do ya You've done a brill job, I'm crap with foundation and all that gubbins

 

[Shabutie]

Well if OH turns me down, I no where to turn then...


Thanks hun!

 

[Mrs Gibbo]

I just laughed so much I'm crying!
