Short Wedding Dresses + Killer Heels | Part 1

We LOVE seeing brides wear what they want for their weddings! Pulling your own personal style into your wedding gown is a great idea in many ways; you will be most comfortable, the style of your gown will be flattering, and you will ultimately look better in your wedding pictures.

The newest trend in Colorado weddings is to wear a stylish short wedding gown with some colorfully fabulous heels! Designers pull off many different looks with short gowns, and “short” could mean many things!

Tea-Length is the longest version of a short hemline - it usually falls just below your knees to mid-calf. These dresses are often reminiscent of the 50s and kid-skin gloves. A Tea length gown can be conservative or modern, depending on how you style it.

Knee Length is just as it sounds. This dress falls to your knees and can include differing styles. For example, you could have a ballerina skirt (full and flouncy) or a pencil skirt (tight and sassy) or anything in between!

Mini Skirt - everyone knows what this is! The mini skirt is classified as anything above the knees, and sometimes much higher than that! This style gown is not for everyone - make sure your legs are nice and toned and you are wearing some killer heels!

Killer Heels is actually the topic of my next blog, so stay tuned!!

Wedding Skin Care

Monday, July 27th, 2009
Every bride wants to look her very best on the wedding day. When else will you be the focus of attention of your closest friends, family and of a photographer chosen to capture you and your partner throughout a whirlwind wedding day?

Whether you want to lighten a scar, clear up your skin, erase freckles, or permanently remove unwanted hair, now is the time to start thinking about your options.  Healthy glowing skin from head to toe is an absolute necessity on the wedding day.  For our Denver area brides, we highly recommend ANS Skin Care for a great skin care provider.

The Wedding Channel has a good article on Do’s and Don’ts of wedding skin care.  You can read it here.

Wedding Day Make-Up Tips

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Every Colorado bride wants to look beautiful, fresh and radiant on her wedding day. We suggest pampering yourself and getting a make-over by a professional for your big day. I have worked with many great professional make-up artists, but by far my favorite cosmetic brand is MAC cosmetics.

MAC was founded in 1984 by a fashion photographer and a hair stylist. Their experience in the fashion industry led them to recognize the need for more durable, versatile and creative cosmetics products. These products would need to be able to handle the demands of runway shows, theater productions and photo shoots. With these things in mind, they set about creating their line.

MAC has since produced many great lines of rich colors, sturdy foundations and long lasting lip colors. This is why I recommend it so highly to our brides. MAC make-up is designed to last all day, in the heat or humidity, through tears and sweat and many other wedding make-up emergencies.

I also strongly recommend false eyelashes. Although most ladies never wear these nowadays, the wedding day is the perfect time to put them to use. Your photographs will turn out splendidly and your eyes will be open, awake and lush. The lashes, when applied by a professional, will stay on throughout the day and into the evening.

You will always want to set up an appointment with your make-up artist ahead of time, in order to do a trial run of the color and style of your make-up. I would recommend doing this a few months before your Colorado wedding so you have time to revise your make-up plan if necessary.

Look into the MAC make-up line and let your beauty shine on your wedding day!
