You know a wedding is going to be a dazzling, opulent affair when the hen do takes place in PARIS, and the bride intends to purchase her wedding shoes at Louboutin’s flagship store while she’s there… Introducing stunning bride Jessica and her gorgeous gaggle of girls.
My bride arrived for her trial on the day she was travelling to Paris for her hen do, so was understandably excited and in high spirits. It seemed only fitting that we popped open the prosecco during makeup discussions. Jessica knew exactly how she wanted to look on her wedding day – like herself! This meant recreating makeup she loved to wear during special occasions; dark smokey eyes, warm nude lips, lots of lashes and of course, radiant, flawless skin. Gorgeous!
A mix of warm toned brown, gold and bronze Mac eye shadows were used alongside rose&bird favourite, Laura Mercier liquid liner pen to create smokey eyes with feline flicks. Bobbie Brown creamy lipstick was used for the pout and a mix of Mac peach and Laura Mercier coral enhanced the cheek bones. The flawless complexion was created using By Terry Cover Expert alongside another rose&bird favourite Laura Mercier Primer and of course, a touch of Nars bronzer. The radiant makeup complemented her tousled strawberry blonde hair and amber Gatsby inspired accessories perfectly.
The bride wanted her girls to feel happy and confident so each bridesmaid look was created and tailored to suit them individually. The gorgeous mother of the bride opted for a subtle, elegant look using champagne and gold tones for her eyes and a classic nude lip. The bejeweled vintage style bridesmaids dresses and beautifully stylish wedding dress worked exquisitely alongside the modern styled hair and smouldering makeup, resulting in a seriously glamorous bridal party.
The whole day was photographed by the amazingly talented The Twins Photography and captured beautifully on film by Mischa and James up at the wonderful manor house by the sea, Newton Hall Northumberland.
Wishing Jessica and Henry all the happiness and luck in the world, you handsome people you.
