Now that you’ve booked the stylists of your dreams and you have a general sense of what you like...
IT'S TIME TO START THINKING A BIT MORE SPECIFICALLY ABOUT YOUR OVERALL LOOK.
And you should keep an open mind to their suggestions and recommendations. Give them a little bit of freedom at your trial (more on that later), you might be surprised.
KEEP IN MIND THOUGH, YOUR STYLISTS ARE THE PROS
One crucial element in the timing of all of this is finding your dress.
It will be absolutely impossible to determine your overall wedding look until you have your dress - the vibe, style, color, and even fabric texture of the dress will guide so many of your styling choices.
SO MAKE SURE YOU FIND "THE ONE"
...before even thinking about hair and makeup. Once you find it, make sure your hair and makeup align with the vibe you chose. If you want some inspiration here are some vision boards to get you started.
You might need to test out a few things to see what feels like the most beautiful version of you. You should listen to the pros’ recommendations and be open to trying something out of your comfort zone, but if it doesn’t feel right, trust your gut.
reminder
Stay true to what makes you feel beautiful- however you want to look on your wedding day is exactly the way a bride should look. You know what looks best on you- trust your gut.
...doesn’t mean you have to do the same if you’ve never worn more than some Burt’s Bees. And just because your Aunt Karen keeps telling you a tight bun is “bridal,” doesn’t mean you can’t redefine the word with a blowout.
BE VOCAL ABOUT WHAT YOU DO & DON'T LIKE, & FIND WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL YOUR BEST.
DISCOVERING YOUR WEDDING LOOK REQUIRES AN EQUAL MIX OF RISK & COMFORT
JUST BECAUSE YOUR BEST FRIEND WORE PALE PINK LIPSTICK & LOOKED BEAUTIFUL...
