Another week of fun brides…..seems like all the 09 brides have decided to get married in the second part of the year.

Let’s take a look at the bridal hairstyles and wedding make-up choices…..you gotta love Southern California Weddings…all the cultures, no rules, anything gos.

Design Visage wants to sincerely thank all the brides, photographers, and coordinators that love us. All the hair jewelry can be found on Bridalmode.

Now off to a week-end of weddings…..which means lots of photos to share.

 I love being married.  It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.  ~Rita Rudner

The Design Visage artists know all these concerns are are there for you without any ego but with loads of talent.

I just love love the new hair accessories. Brides are having so much fun with unique looks. You can see some terrific pieces on Bridalmode, Design Visage’s premiere wedding accessory site.

 What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful.

Let’s look at some of Design Visage’s fantastic brides 09. The first photo here is make-up only.

So many different bridal make-up and hair choices. We thank all our brides for choosing Design Visage and Bridalmode accessories for their bridal beauty.

One thing all these brides have in common….they all look very natural, and when they have the wedding dress on….the look will be even more subtle. That’s the plan…you but better!!!

Scott Westerfeld,

This is Kristen, she is getting married this week-end at the Surf and Sand. Her photographer is Lauren Hillary…so we will have some great pics. You may recognize Kristen, we did her sister Jennifer’s wedding in March.

This is Mary….we did Mary’s wedding last year. We see Mary often for cut and color services, and this was a fun 1940′s event that we had the pleasure of making Mary shine.

Design Visage wants to thank all our brides.

Cheryl Tiegs (1947 – ), O Magazine, May 2004

Both these lovely girls look fantastic with or without make-up but how incredible they will look on the wedding day. Each bride is wearing a hair piece from our Bridalmode collection.

This is Noelle….isn’t she beautiful…we forgot to get the before…..so here is the after. Her wedding is October 16th…will be here before you know it.

This is our sweet Lordes. She is getting married in August, although we have had the pleasure of seeing her a few times for engagement photos, her shower…it has been great.

Lordes has to decide between the up or half up……what do you think? The wedding will be at the Jonathan Club in Santa Monica.

Lordes chose to take advantage of Design Visage’s rent a headpiece….she will wear this beautiful piece for a fraction of the cost……check it out.

This is Jennifer, her wedding date is June 27th in Pasadena….and as you know I will post the wedding photos. Jennifer is going to have a Moroccan theme, can’t wait.

  The decision is between 2 hairstyles the down side pony…or the loose up. Can you help Jennifer decide?

 These are the 2 inspiration hairstyles……Jennifer looks fantastic in both…..hard decision.

See you tomorrow

This is Elisabeth, she is getting married this week-end. She is such a beautiful girl, the make-up just accented her natural beauty….isn’t that the goal?

Elisabeth is getting married at the beautiful Estancia La Jolla….we will post the wedding pics soon.

This is Christine, she is getting married at the stunning new Pelican Hill in a few weeks.

This is the inspiration look for Christine. She has the perfect hair for this style.

 Kerrie Underhill of Platinam Weddings is the coordinator for this event…so you know it will be fantastic.

This is Ashley…..her wedding was last Sunday May 3rd on the Newport Yachts. These shots were Thursday for her preview. She had been up since 3a.m. driving over 8 hours to the Newport Beach destination. Pretty cute for being sooo tired.

Today I am going to show you the most important part of our services…the “preview”. This is the time you will spend a few hours with your artist getting it perfect. One of the best parts of working with a Design Visage professional is that you can say what you like, and what you do not like…it’s all about you. This is your wedding day and we are here to help you get what you want with our valuable recommendations. You won’t be disappointed. Let’s take a look at a few previews from last week.

This is Doris. Her big day is next week-end at the spectacular Crystal Cathedral. If you not seen this beautiful church…..take a trip to Garden Grove and take a look. Doris is a very pretty girl without make-up. We applied a few shades of browns on the lid with a dramatic liner (makes her eyes pop) lips and cheeks very natural dark rose tones. Her hair will be half up half down. This is great style on Doris. Although during the preview her artist noticed that in order for the style to stay all day, Doris will need to layer her hair a bit. This takes some of the weight and helps the staying power. No problem Design Visage scheduled a special cut with Heather to layer a bit. Great that you do not have to worry about that infamous too short haircut the week of your wedding. We work with brides everyday and know just the right amount. This photo is the inspiration used for Doris’ look.

Doris is taking advantage of our “borrow a veil” program. She chose a designer veil to take for a week….can’t beat that.

Now we have Kari. She is getting married at Casa Del Camino in Laguna Beach. This boutique hotel was built in 1927 as a retreat for Hollywood Stars. Kari wanted a modern take on a vintage look. This was the inspiration:

Dosen’t Kari look Old Hollywood Chic……we will be sure to post a picture of the actual day in the gown. Bye

This is the inspiration picture for Heike’s hairstyle. She had her eyebrows tinted prior to the preview by our Esthetitician Adreinne. This is a fantastic service for we light hair girls….wake up with eyebrows. The dress Heike will be wearing is a sleek gold gown, so she was looking for more of an evening look. Her artist did a simple french twist with her pretty blond hair. Make-up was a dramatic liner with shimmery gold lids and cheeks. Topped off with a natural lip tone lipstick and gloss…… look how it makes her beautiful blue eyes pop…….so sexy.

WOW dosen’t Heika look great. Here you will see the french twist adorned with a beautiful comb of gold, silver and pearl from our own Bridalmode. Can’t wait to see the event…..we will post the pictures.
