The dress was beautiful, you got through the ceremony and reception without a hitch, but just when you thought your wedding was perfect, your pictures come back and you look awful. What can you do to make sure that your photos are as beautiful as the memories you have?
Here are some of the things you should consider:
• Never scrimp on your photographer. Nobody’s going to remember if your bouquets had daisies or rare, exotic orchids. But years from now, your great grand children will be looking at your wedding album. They’re not just souvenirs, they’re heirlooms. Spend on them.
• Avoid complicated hairstyles and veils. You’ll be walking around, too busy talking to guests to check the mirror. You don’t want your veil hanging to the side, or your bangs plastered to your face. Keep it simple and elegant. If you want a dramatic veil for your walk down the aisle, look for a style that allows you to detach part of it, leaving you with something less cumbersome at the reception.
• Buy or make a small clutch bag or pouch that matches your gown. It should carry blotting paper, pressed powder, Lipstick and blush. Ask your maid of honor to keep it handy for you.
• Wear waterproof mascara. You will cry a lot. It’s guaranteed. Black mascara will run and leave unflattering raccoon eyes.
• Don’t wear heavy powder eye shadow. Again, you will cry. You will also sweat from walking around in Heavy Makeup, a thick gown, and hundreds of guests milling around you. Powder smears and cakes, and ends up under your eyes.
• Don’t wear sheer lipstick. You’ll eat it off. Or if you do, wear a matte or semi-matte base and apply the sheer lipstick as a top coat. Be sure to blot well, or it’ll end up around your mouth or on your teeth. Also, if you’re planning on having some black and white photos, go for a darker lipstick. Otherwise your photos can make it look like you have no lips!
• Don’t wear heavy shimmery makeup, unless it’s applied by a Professional Makeup artist. It doesn’t photograph well under less than perfect lighting conditions. If you do, apply only on the eyes.
• Bridal makeup should be soft and romantic, not harsh. Natural pinks are most flattering, and really make you look like a “blushing bride”. Avoid hard-edged contouring and dramatic browns, unless blended well and kept close to the eyeline. Even lipsticks should stick to the pinks and brownish pinks. Bright reds look too harsh worn against a white dress.
• You’ll need good foundation that lasts long but doesn’t cake. The trick is to apply moisturizer first and let it “set”. This will prime your skin. Apply a matte or cream foundation, then congealer. Dust powder foundation with a brush.
• Take good photographs right after the ceremony, when everyone’s Make Up is still intact. You should have solo shots, couple shots, and group photos with your entourage, friends, family members.
• Ask for a few black and white photographs. They always have a soft, romantic feel.
• If you’ll be having outdoor photographs, light is most flattering in the morning and at dusk. Avoid any outdoor shots from 11am to 2pm; everyone will just be squinting.
