Beautiful Bridal

Good afternoon Everyone,

Today I am bringing you a little look at the beautiful Bridal party I styled Friday morning in Newport. It was a pleasure to look after Mary and her bridesmaids. The girls were so friendly and We had great craic and banter all morning. Amelda Flaherty from Westport was the make up artist for the bridal party. They all looked stunning by the way.

I had pin curled Mary’s hair in Thursday to ensure the curls would hold. Pin curls work well on most hair types as they help to set the curl in place. I pin curl with a GHD and use light hair grips to hold in place. Covering with a hairnet to keep everything in place. This is comfortable to sleep in. I know because I’ve slept in them many times.

We used clip in extensions to create Mary’s Bridal look. These were also curled on Thursday to allow time to set. I back combed the top section and used a little Schwartzkopf Powder’ful volumizing powder to help it stay in place. I then weaved a few vintage style swirls around the sides and into the back. I love creating a style for a bride and personalising it specifically for them. The style went perfectly with Mary’s Princess style dress from McElhinneys bridal rooms. She looked stunning.

For the Bridesmaids We kept a rustic Autumnal theme. Loose messy chic.

Thanks Mary and girls for having me as part of your big day. It was great fun and I was delighted to be there. Thanks for letting me blog about the lovely experience styling you.
