Hair and Make Up - who should i choose??

[JoJo1980]

I'm getting a bit stressed out trying to pick who I should book to do my hair and make-up on our wedding day. Please can people post their recommendations, or photos or prices - anything that might help de-stress me, if thats even possible anymore, considering the wedding is only 9 weeks away

Hi! There's a thread going on this right now that might be helpful:

But I'll post my story here too:

Who you choose depends on the style of makeup you want. I chose Patricia Lejeune (www.lejeune-pca.com) because I wanted to look naturally made-up, if that makes sense. I am not into the earth tones, mascara + lip gloss-only kind of natural - I love color. But at the same time, I didn't want to look like Pam Anderson or Jessica Simpson or Miss America

So... I'm pretty picky, and I'm really pale. After the trial I told Patricia I didn't want bronzer, which I think is prolly sacrilege in the makeup world, and she still managed to make me look like a member of the living. And the airbrush makeup plus some Model In a Bottle that I brought meant my makeup lasted 18 hours!

Hair!
