Naomi is a beautiful girl. So it makes sence that Naomi was a stunning bride. And you will see that Naomi has exquisite taste. Take a look:

After the wedding we received the nicest letter ever….I must share

To the Design Visage Team:

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you so much for helping us make one of the most important days of our lives, one of the most beautiful!!  My family and friends are AMAZED at your talent and we all wanted to reiterate how grateful we are to the entire Design Visage team, for beauti-fying all of us! Thank you for making the entire wedding beauty experience such a wonderful one.

I can’t emphasize enough how instrumental the DV team was in making this day special.  The DV team didn’t only provide hair and makeup, but provided a warm, comfortable, friendly experience that is truly unprecedented.  I wanted to remind you that each and every one of the women that day has an extremely high standard for hair and makeup services and intitally (despite my raves about Lauren!!)  many of the ladies were skeptical of non-Asian make up artists working on Asian faces.  However, the end result proved them astonishingly wrong! Both sets of mothers, as well as our wedding guests were so impresed with your work!  One of my bridesmaids even mentioned that she liked her hair and makeup this past saturday more than her own wedding’s hair and makeup!! I was also in awe at the fact that my hair and makeup withstood: tears, fog, more tears, dancing, 12+ hours, more tears, laughter (they can create smudges and makeup wrinkles), hugs, tears, and more dancing!  As my now husband Chris mentioned “hair and makeup: solid.”:)Let me just say, all our hair and makeup stylists in New York, Chicago, LA, Seoul, Hong Kong, must now meet the new threshold that is Design Visage’s.

Last but not least, my sincerest thank you to Lauren.  She is one of the most talented, warmest, KINDEST, patient, understanding artists I had the pleasure of meeting.  Hair and makeup on a picky bride (with extremely specific taste) can be no easy feat, but with Lauren, everything came to place.  Cinderella’s fairy godmother’s got nothing on Lauren! Thank you for making an over-sterssed, underslept bride look nothing short of looking her absolute best!

Thank you so much, again!!

Love,

Naomi

Wow now is that a great thank you……..let’s take a look at more of this sptacular wedding that was documented by my friend Becker along with two second shooters……………………………………….

 

I realize we are a hair and make-up company and I am showing many photos of the dress, but really can’t you see why? The photos and the dress are memorizing…

The Ritz Carlton in Dana Point is right on the beautiful Laguna Beach. Becker took the couple out for a photo shoot prior to the reception. The photos are truly amazing.

The shoes fit the dress and style……

There are so many photos of Naomi that I love, tomorrow I will add more of the hair and make-up and we will explain all the beauty details so stay tuned.

thank you so much to Laurie from Five Star Weddings for referring Naomi to Design Visage and for orchrastrating the day.

I am so excited to present these photos of Pooja. A fun part of Indian Weddings is all the color and jewels. Design Visage Lauren did amazing wedding hair and makeup

Wedding Makeup:

With all the color and jewels, Pooja was able to wear quite a smoky eye. Lauren of Design Visage used shades of burgundy, cream and gold. She lined Pooja’s eye with a black gel liner around the entire eye. She added a bit of glittery gold under the eye to frame the black liner and make it pop. Lauren added a Merlot color lipstick with a clear gloss and it’s perfect.

Wedding Hairstyle:

Lauren first did a part in front of Pooja’s hair to place the Tikka. Then she styled the rest back and created a soft intricate back hairstyle. It was elegant and clean, although very feminine. How Lauren created this was curling all of Pooja’s hair with a 1 inch iron and creating a base in the back of her head and styling all the hair into the base, very loose.

I love these photos and they were kindly provided by Asgeir Fotographica and coordinated by our friend Ruth Wang.


Thanks again:

I love digital photos…...Design Visage did Heather’s wedding  just over a week ago and the wonderful Casey Larae sent these amazing images of our stunning bride.

It does not hurt that Heather is beautiful and has an great sense of style. Paired with Design Visage Lauren…this is a hot look.

Wedding hairstyle:

Heather chose that ever so popular side style. Design Visage Lauren outdid herself on this one. First she curled all Heather’s hair with a 1 inch iron. She added some clip in hair extensions for fullness. She then created a base by putting part of Heather’s hair in a rubber band to the side. The final touches were adding the rest of the hair in loose pieces around the base, leaving lots of hair out and tousled.

Wedding Makeup:

Heather has that bold style and it shows in her choice of wedding makeup. Lauren helped Heather create a sexy smoky eye with shades of grey and gold, topping it off with red lips. Heather looks amazing.

As you know if you read our blog, Rancho Las Lomas is one of Design Visage‘s favorite wedding locations. Just look at all the photo opportunities, along with one of the most romantic settings in the O.C…..and you get to work with one of my favorite wedding peeps Nili of Rancho Las Lomas


Thanks for everyone who participated in the wonderful affair, especially:

Wedding Hair and Make-up/Amber Events/Design Visage

Erin and I connected by email for several months. She lives in Australia. When we finally met her, what a pleasure. She has such a unique style and her dress was amazing. We were so excited when she hired Design Visage for her bridal beauty.

Wedding hairstyle:

Design Visage Dana was Erin’s stylist and they created an amazing side hairstyle. Dana curled Erins’s hair and then wove it all together to the side…perfection

Wedding makeup:

Erin went with a natural eye and a bolder lip to go with the red accents in the dress and wedding flavor. Although Dana helped her choose a soft red that did not over power her face

This was quite a fun wedding and organized by our friend Amber of Amber Events.

Wedding Hair and Makeup/

Last summer we had the pleasure of meeting Amber and helping her and all her girls look fantastic on the wedding. It was beautifully coordinated by Sophia of Les Belles Affaires and we received the amazing photos from Visual Masterpiece. And of course with Design Visage stylist Georgia, Amber had a great team.

Wedding Make up: Amber chose a clean eyeshadow with creams and charcoal and thin black gel liner and loads of lashes. DV Georgia topped off the look with a soft pink blush and ice pink lips. With Amber’s dark hair it was a hit.

Wedding Hairstyle: Amber went with the sexy down do with one day extensions to add body and fullness to the total look. DV Georgia curled the extensions with a flat iron to give a natural beach curl. She then set Amber’s hair and let it cool to have her hair maintain the curl. The extensions were then clipped into Amber’s hairline, Georgia ran her hands through both the extensions and natural hair, and poof an amazing natural sexy down hairstyle that will last all day

Hair jewels are carefully secured and Amber is ready for one of the best days of her life

And I believe they had a great day.
