Lauren, Elizabeth’s Design Visage artist created the look…

Wedding Hairstyle:

Wow 2009 was the year for the half updo, or you could say half down do. Anyway you look at it…lots of hair on the shoulders. Lauren created this romantic style with a 1 inch iron. She set the hair and then fingered out the curls to look natural. She pinned the sides softly and a side part for the front which adds a bit of elegance….

Wedding Make-Up:

Elizabeth is fair complected (like me) so the brows add much to her look….Lauren defined her brows with a natural brow powder added browns and golds on the lid….a set of lashes and pop the eyes…wow.  Add a mauve lip and cheek and you have a stunning natural look for a georgeous blond.

Posted in Beautiful Brides, Bridal hairstyles and hair accessories

I promised you more Photos of the lovely Laura….and here they are….You will recall her photos were in Style Unveiled L.A…………….. Rancho Las Lomas  is one of the most beautiful settings for a wedding, you will recall these other brides that were married at Rancho Las Lomas. Thank you Jeffrey Neal of JNP Studios  for the photos:

Wedding Hair:

* Laura’s hair was curled with a 1″ iron in medium size sections and pinned in curles all over Laura’s head. This is for staying power

* After her wedding make-up was applied, the curls were taken down and Lauren, Laura’s Design Visage artist ran her fingers through the hair to give it a soft and natural look

* Spray Spray Spray….we use a terrific spray by Alterna. Light, but efficient.

Picture 019

Wedding Make-up:

* Lauren used a mineral make-up foundation with an SPF of 15, no sunburn on the wedding day, followed by a loose mineral powder and rose blush

* Laura’s eye shadow were a pallet of brown, golds and a touch of rose. A waterproof chocolate liner, black mascara and a few individual lashes to create the eye.

* Lips were a deep natural lip liner covering the entire lip with a “sweetie” gloss on top. This kept Laura picture perfect, even after the “kiss”

Pelican Hill/Wedding Hair and Make-Up/Victor Sizemore Photography

Posted in Beautiful Brides

The new Pelican Hill venue did not disappoint. We waited a few years for it to open, and it is a beauty. Christine and …..chose Pelican Hill, along with a wonderful team of professionals: Kerrie Underhill of Platinum Weddings to coordinate, Victor Sizemore Photography, Elysium Productions for the movie, and yours truly Design Visage for the beauty.

Christine and her Design Visage artist Lauren decided on a very dramatic eye….since Christine is in the beauty business herself, she was not afraid of drama. so it was for the wedding make-up elegant and sexy.

I love technology, we are facebook freinds with all Christine’s vendors and Victor posted a shot even before Christine walked down the isle for all of us to see. Big change from the days…..and not so long ago, that it would take months….I mean months if ever to see our lovely brides photos.0043T_Moore

Christine looks soooo cute here

Tattoo Encore

Posted in Bridal hairstyles and hair accessories, Just for fun, Vintage Brides

Encore of the fun photos of tatoo brides. Just look at the art on these girls. I found all these photos on offbeatbride.com . Design Visage did not do the hair and make-up for these brides…although I wish we did….

I really appriciate brides who think outside the box…maybe because I as well did not do the traditional. I met this “to die for” man in Italy when I was studying there many years ago. We had so much in common. Most importantly we both agreed on the importance of a commited relationship, although did not want to marry. Well as life has it, after he was here for 2 years…we could not longer dodge immigration. The attorney said marry by April 15th or he becomes an illegal~!!! wow so we did not even talk about it for a few months…well April came around and to spare all the details….we went to Las Vegas…I wore a black dress ( very stunning) and we did it all alone…we did not even tell our friends or family….he suggested the drive through Elvis ceremony, but I did draw the line there…..so here we are 12 years later…..happy, married…..without even 1 photo of the day. O yes we did confess to our families 5 years after the day!

What a pretty girl with such a natural bridal make-up choice.

 If man is to survive, he will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life’s exciting variety, not something to fear.
