5 Simple and Effective Wedding Make Up Tips

by richard on Oct.06, 2009, under Wedding Articles

Wedding is one of the most important events in a woman’s life and every woman wishes to look her best on that special day. However, in most weddings the star of the event looks like an over decorated goddess idol! That is due to the overtly heavy and ghastly wedding make up.

On weddings, the bride and the bridegroom are the centre of attraction, especially for the camera lens and a bad and over done make up can end up the bride looking like a ghosts in the wedding video and photographs. Most people think that a dark, and 8 inches thick pan cake make up is ideal for a wedding as it wont lighten or come off soon and will last throughout the function for good hours. However, wedding make up should be such that it reflects the natural beauty of the bride enhances her beauty and gives her a blushing glow, perfect for a soon-to-be bride.

While organising your wedding dress, take equal pain in deciding your wedding make up well in advance. If you are appointing a professional make up artist for the special day, then take a dress and make up rehearsal before the wedding, to decide your over all look for the day. Decide the colour tone you will like, matching with your wedding dress and over all look. Even if you have appointed a make up professional that does not mean you cannot give your inputs or your part is over. (continue reading…)

Headpiece & Veil

by richard on Aug.18, 2009, under Articles, Wedding Articles

Bridal headpieces and veils have been worn in wedding ceremonies for centuries, and can be found in different forms in many different cultures and religions.

The Bridal Headpiece

Bridal headpieces come in many different shapes and sizes. They can be made of many different types of metal, gems and faux stones like diamonds or diamante, beaded strings, or even out of natural materials such as flowers or silk imitations.

The definition of a bridal headpiece is simply “a crown, headband or tiara worn around the forehead”. Traditionally, the bridal headpiece was made from a thin band of metal, but as technical processes have developed there are many different options available to the bride on her special day.

Examples of popular bridal pieces are increasingly leaning towards the tiara. This is possibly because it is more comfortable to wear, and can be pinned into the hair style for increased comfort and security reference slippage. The history of the tiara has roots in Persia, and was originally based upon the crowns worn by the Kings and the Emperors. At this time the crown, or tiara, was usually constructed from leather which was richly embellished. They also were usually decorated with other natural fibers such as feathers, horns or jewels.

Bridal head pieces are often utilized in conjunction with bridal wedding veils, but can also quite happily be worn on their own. There are also several other similar products available on the market which are loose adaptations, including pins, clips and flowers that can be twined into the brides hair to create a similar, yet slightly more subtle and understated effect.

Traditional White Wedding Favors

by richard on Aug.11, 2009, under Articles, Wedding Articles

If you are having a traditional white wedding then you may be considering traditional white wedding favors to coordinate. Whilst almonds and confectionery are the most traditional favors, many brides prefer to give their guests something a little more unique and special.

Your choice of packaging can go along way to creating the white wedding look you want; whilst the favor itself can be anything you want. Source some white favor boxes with a silk or satin finish; dress them with white ribbons (perhaps personalized with your names and wedding date) and traditional elements such as white doves, hearts or wedding bells.

Make up small bags from white silk or satin and fill them with candies, chocolates or even turn them in to scented sachets filled with lavender seeds or rose buds. These bags could also be decorated with lace or ribbon to give them a pretty finish. (continue reading…)
