Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to share a great wedding experience. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of doing makeup on a bride who had a location wedding here in South Florida. She's originally from Weston, Florida, but moved to London England a few years ago because she wanted more excitement in her life. That is where she met the love of her life, and only two days into being in a new country. The attraction they had for each other was instant, and from that moment on, were inseparable! They had their ceremony on a yacht leaving out of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. The day was beautiful and the water was smooth. If you're from Florida, you know how crazy and unpredictable the weather can be. So this couple really lucked out. I also did the makeup for the rest of the bridal party, a combination of family and good friends. The energy in the room was wonderful and everyone was so excited. This particular bride had friends and family from around the world, from England to Egypt, to Italy and France. Everything went according to plan and there was plenty of time to get ready. Thank you Christina for letting me be part of your special day!

Beautiful Bride


I just did a beautiful bride this past weekend. She was an expert at organization and because of this, everything went according to plan. I love it when a bride has a room selected just for me to do my work, separated from the craziness of incoming relatives and friends. She also had some food for me to snack on throughout the afternoon. A note to future brides....feed your makeup artists and hairstylist, especially when they are there for a few hours. Nothing too fancy, a simple little sandwich will do.

This bride, like many others, was paying special attention to the needs of her bridesmaids. Making sure they also look beautiful. The dresses and accessories which are being chosen lately are stunning, add a great hairstyle and makeup, and you have an impressive bridal court. Happy bridesmaids, happy bride.

One other key to this bride's successful day was that she hired a wedding coordinator. If you can't afford one to organize the whole event, then hire one at least for the day of the wedding, which is what this bride did.
