Sheri Wade Photography/Wedding Hair/Surf and Sand Hotel

Rachel works in catering at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Hotel in Dana Point, so you can imagine how honored we were when she called Design Visage for her wedding hairstyle….every week-end Rachel sees the hair and make-up for all the brides….and she chose us…yipee

Sheri Wade Photography did amazing work…….

I love Rachel’s style…look at the fantastic bow with color and bling….love love it!!

Wedding Hairstyle:

  • Lauren was Rachel’s Design Visage artist….they decided to create a romantic half up half down hairstyle
  • This style is most successful if you have thick hair….and Rachel has wonderful hair
  • Lauren curled the entire back with a 1 1/2 iron and set it. After the hair was cool, Lauren lightly placed the hair in a tosseled natural look
  • The very important front was softly pulled back and lightly pinned to create a soft look and shows off Rachel’s lovely face

Melody Walker of Events by Melody Walker organized the day and as always it went off with a hitch…..It is so nice when we work wilth wedding coordinators….the wedding always runs so smoothly and the brides is always on time….  Rachel took advantage of our “Borrow a Veil” service and save a lot of cash…..


The wedding was at the beautiful Surf and Sand Hotel in Laguna….This Hotel is RIGHT on the sand and has the most amazing view and sunset….if you are looking for a location for your wedding…check it out.

Rachel wrote such a nice review on Project Wedding for Design Visage..I had to share:

All I can say is Wow! I had an amazing experience with Design Visage. The price was VERY reasonable, especially being able to borrow a veil(for a bride on a budget, this was AMAZING)

Lauren was my artist and was such a pleasure to work with. I have a permanent straightener on my hair which does not allow my hair to hold any kind of style ever….but Lauren made it happen. My hair held up with curls! all night…All of my bridesmaids looked beautiful, even my maid of honor who was insistent on doing her own hair quickly changed her mind when she saw Lauren’s work.

Thank you so much for making me and all my girls look beautiful on the wedding day!

I will be recommending Design Visage!

Design Visage/Get Your Hankie Out for This One

I heard from the wedding coordinator…extraordinaire Lisa Simpson, that the bride and groom both sobbed when they saw each other prior to the wedding. Lisa of course was complimenting the Design Visage make-up application…its cry proof. Although when I saw these beautiful photos from OrangeTurtle Photography …I sobbed…..you can not fake this look….it is the look of pure love and joy to be getting married. Becky and Dastuni’s photos are my favorite so far in 09. Let’s see what you think.

It’s hard to even notice the hair and make-up with all that emotion going on. Never the less, let’s see what Lauren ( Design Visage artist) and Becky chose for her wedding beauty.

Becky’s bridal hairstyle was a half updo adorned with a crystal flower from Design Visage’s Bridalmode. Lauren added hair extensions to add fullness and it also helps the style stay longer. Wedding make-up was sultry eyes and soft lips….don’t forget the eyelash extensions….the final touch.

Becky has a fun style about her….look at the dress…sassy red, and Dastuni’s red highlights….was it planned? Along with the blue girlie’s dresses….fun fun.

Previews…Previews…Previews…

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!
