Design Visage Heather Gets Married

Caren — Mon, 03 May 2010 01:07:13 +0000

So fun when one of our Design Visage girls gets married, although this is bitter sweet since Heather is moving away and will only be here for a few weddings this year….Booo. But seems the Design Visage girls leave, but they always return.

Lauren did an amazing bridal hair and make-up look on Heather. Take a look:

It was fun hearing about all the details while Heather was planning….although you never really until you see it…..beautiful. Heather planned this wedding in less than 2 months. It was perfect.

Lauren had fun with Heather’s wedding make-up. Since Heather is a hair and make-up artist, she is very comfortable with a dramatic look:

* As you can see this look is all about the lashes. I believe they have two strips on each eye. It looks so romantic.

* The shadow is very smokey, with hews of plums and greys. Perfect for Heather’s blue eyes.

* Eyes and Lips are a soft tone of corals to blend with the fantastic flowers on her dress

Wedding hairstyle:

* Heather’s retro hairstyle was created with a few wefts of hair extensions and a creative team of Lauren and Heather.

* Many brides would not be comfortable with such a large hairstyle, but not Heather, she loved it.

*Lauren created a smooth updo with large irons and a smoothing comb.

I actually attneded this wedding and it was amazing. Thanks to Heather’s Cousin Amelia Lyon Photography for the awesome photos. Heather also took advantage of the Design Visage “borrow a veil” and she found all the hair accessories on Bridalmode.

Many brides have Design Visage return after the wedding to change the hairstyle for the reception. It is a great way to have to looks on one day. Mariam choose a stunning hairpiece from Bridalmode to accessorize the updo. This is a popular style, it is very sexy and soft and yet comfortable for dancing.

I have to say this was a memorable wedding, along with a memorable bride….thank you Mariam for choosing Design Visage for your bridal beauty.

Previews…Previews…Previews…

Caren — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 15:00:31 +0000

Another week of fun weddings and previews. As I have mentioned in past posts regarding previews, I believe it is the most difficult part of the bridal beauty. Choosing how you want your bridal hairstyle, wedding make-up….natural, smoky…..Most of us have the ability to carry off many different styles and looks, although this is your day and you must decide….but we can sure help.

Our motto is “if you just half way “love it” on the preview, you will love it love it on the wedding day”. Why is this? The preview you typically are wearing casual clothes. On the wedding, when you put the dress, hair jewelry, and jewelry on…..it all pulls together and is just perfect.

Design Visage is proud to help all these brides look beautiful on their weddings…..of course wedding photos to come!

Roya and Jeff….Romance

Caren — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 22:51:42 +0000

What a beautiful girl Roya…..she married Jeff May 23rd at the incredible St Regis Hotel in Monarch Beach. I Would like thank Jenny from Red Loft Studios for capturing these memorable photos of the day.

Lauren was Roya’s Design Visage artist. We had the pleasure of seeing Roya many times prior to the wedding. For the engagement photos, a engagement party and she had Lauren cut her hair and condition it so it was healthy and shinny for the wedding….it certainly shows.

Roya is a lovely girl with all the natural beauty you could desire. To enhance that, Lauren added some extensions to her hair and eyelashes. The bridal make-up choice was natural eyes, some deep rusty tones with browns to bring out Roya’s amazingly large eyes and to top it off, a bold lip color….just perfect.

Roya choose a delicate silk flower for her hair jewelry that she purchased from Design Visage’s Bridalmode.

Roya, we are so pleased that you chose Design Visage to be such an important part of sure an important day. It’s great to see the bride and groom having fun at the wedding!

My husband said he wanted to have a relationship with a redhead, so I dyed my hair.

So Naomi saw our post and of course loved it……although today I received these photos.

So let’s see a few more shots of Naomi.

Bride in the Knot Magazine

Caren — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 14:43:58 +0000

Naomi and Larry were married last year, but we have been waiting to see the article in The Knot magazineto do our blog story. It was a special honor to have been chosen by Naomi for the bridal beauty, because she is a wedding coordinator and has worked with many vendors. So we feel privileged to have been a part of this unique day. Naomi is the N in DNT Elite events, and she is used to planning for all the others. In fact when we would call to confirm details about her wedding, she always had several other brides details to go over with us at the same time. WOW had did you do it! Ryan Phillips was the master photographer for the day. Lets see what they say in the magazine.

Naomi’s hair and make-up were very fun. She has great hair and Michelle ( her DV artist) did an intricate but loose updo. It was all out of her face, and a piece of artwork in the back. Naomi’s make-up was a natural look of neutrals, pinks and mauve’s. Just enough to bring out her features. WOW she looks fantastic.

Look how important a good bridesmaids is….. to touch up your lip gloss.

Naomi has great taste in shoes

Home made jam for all

Naomi and Larry were married in Ventura at the Eucalyptus Lane. Thanks Naomi for choosing Design Visage.

Sister finds the groom on Match

Caren — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 15:01:02 +0000

Angela and Steve were married in March…..but how did they meet? Angela’s sister wanted her to put a profile on Match. Well Angela liked the thought of meeting great men, but she is a teacher and was concerned that one of her students would see her in some way…it would be embarrassing and not too professional. So without her knowledge, her sister put a profile up and started interviewing men…or rather weeding out the no’s. When she saw Steve she had a conversation over e-mail and set up a date for Angela. Her sister and bother-in-law called….this is the time and date….you are going out with Steve. Angela is a pleas-er and did not want to disappoint, so she went. Good thing, 9 months later they were engaged. I just saw the movie “The Yes Man” and although I did not care much for the film, possible the message is true. Just show up!

Angela and Lauren, her Design Visage artist went with natural bridal make-up. Angela’s hair was a half up style adorned with a beautiful soft leather flower that she purchased at the salon. This is a very popular flower, you can see it on Bridalmode.com along with many other choices. They added extensions to her hair and lashes, just to add a bit of glamour and femininity. Looks fantastic.

This is the fabulous hair jewel that Angela wore in her hair…..find on Bridalmode. We just saw Angela today for a hair trim……school is out and she and Steve are on their way to Paris for the belated honeymoon….Thanks to Andy Pak for the photography.

Bride breaks her leg

Caren — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 14:05:19 +0000

Yes the ultimate fear……Victoria, the bride, broke her leg 3 weeks prior to the wedding. And she is a doctor! She was working at a clinic..twisted her leg on a cobblestone street and ended up in a cast. Can you return one shoe?

Both the bride and her handsome groom, Cheng-han, are Internists. I think its wise for doctors to marry doctors….they can actually appreciate the schedule and responsibility of the career. Victoria’s dad is a OBGYN in the Newport Beach area so she comes from a family of medicine.

One of our favorite people coordinated the wedding Naomi Takahashi of D.N.T. Elite events along with her two partners Deanna and Tiffany. We actually had the pleasure of helping Naomi look beautiful for her wedding last year. Sae Lee was kind to send us the lovely photography. They were a sensational team of artists, along of course with Design Visage.

The wedding was held on May 16th at the Trump National Golf Club. Lets start with the engagement photos that were shot in San Diego by Sae Lee Photography, and beauty by Design Visage….then on to the wedding.

Heather, Victora’s DV artist chose a very natural look for the engagement photos…especially since Victoria does not wear a lot of make-up on a daily basis. For the wedding Heather went more dramatic on the eyes with a plum/brown shadow and a soft rosy cheek and lip. Victoria’s hairstyle was a half up. Very clean from the front and the back has a surprise design, created with a loose curl and the rest of her hair down and curled.

Look at those lashes….only her make-up artist knows for sure. Naomi, the coordinator, said that Victoria and Cheng-han were one of the most genuine and considerate couples she has ever met. The wedding party organized a fun game at the reception called “Who Will”. It was a series of questions on who was going to do what in the marriage…ie who will do the laundry, take out the trash, wear the pants. Yea wedding party for the creative fun!

A least her doctor removed the cast, replacing it with a boot for the wedding…yea

For fun I think Sae Lee should have taken a shot of just one shoe…..a funny memory. Maybe for me. Although the improtant thing that I always say to our brides….the only truely important thing on the wedding day is that he and you show up and commit your lives together…the rest is just fluff.

Thank you Victoria…we loved adding you to our family of beautiful brides.

Now Lizzy and Mark are a fun couple and you see what I mean as you look at the photos.

I LOVE this venue, you feel as if you are in another time and another place. Let ‘s take a look at how much fun Lizzy and Mark had on April 4th.

Do you see…..did they just have the best time on their wedding day. This is what it is all about. Marrying your best friend, don’t loose site of that ever….

Lauren Lizzy’s hair and make-up artist did a low loose style, with the flower it is perfect and the natural bridal make-up look that is unique to each Design Visage bride. Thanks for letting Design Visage help bring out the beauty in your day.
