Any brides going full glam on their wedding day?

I've seen a lot of brides going for a more natural look (which is beautiful!) but is anyone going BIG on their makeup? I tend to play with my makeup everyday and always wear a full face. It's how I express myself so i definitely want to stay true to myself on the big day. Anyone else plan on doing a full dramatic face? False lashes, contour, highlight, bold brow... the whole shebang?

    The purple is the one in the first pic? Love that one! More muted if you wanted that romantic vibe you were going for. Ooh I love lavender nail polish

    Yes!! I’m planning on doing a full glam look with a smoky eye, falsies, contour, and am thinking about getting extensions!

    I'm going for old Hollywood glam makeup, so exaggerated eyelashes (falsies), dramatic eyes, and a deep reddish lip. I actually just ordered the color I'm going to use from thrive causemetics over a lip plumping liner/filler from them. One is called black cherry, the other is raven I believe. Will probably do my nails in a blush to natural ombre with my ring fingers having champagne sparkle.

    Ooh I love brides who pull off the old Hollywood glam! I'm sure you'll look beautiful and your choice or dark red (which i think sometimes is more flattering than bright red) will look gorg.

    I want to look like myself but 10 times better 🤣 I plan to get lash extensions and I’m also getting airbrush makeup done. I want to do a classic smokey bridal look on the eyes with browns. And bold lips! Also an updo for hair... I love makeup so I’m super excited to be completely glamed out!

    I’m not sure. FH prefers limited make up. I like to play with it, but am not good at it. I will probably fall somewhere in the middle.

    I don't do make up in general but I wanted to say I absolutely swoon over glam brides. The nails always get me! I'd be crying at y'all's wedding

    False lashes and purple/pink eyeshadow for me!! Can’t wait for my trial to figure out the exact look. I normally wear a full face of makeup and neutral or purple/sparkly eyeshadow every day

    So your look will definitely stay true to you but like Kristen 2.0 Smiley laugh

    I wear a full face too! But every day my eyeshadow and lips vary depending on what I'm wearing

    I'm going full glam. I wear a full face every day but not normally false lashes. But I want to go all out for my wedding day. They say that more dramatic make up photographs great! And i need the tan and acrylics lol

    For my makeup trial she did a full glam look and I was in awe of myself!, lol... I don’t wear full makeup everyday, just eyeliner and lashes when going out, so seeing myself in full glam was so different... I looked great, but it was so different for me. I’m trying to decide if it’s too much or should I go for it for my special day

    Yes!!

    I wear a full full face every day currently but I’m going to have to start doing quicker looks once I start teaching in August. I’ll probably stick an eye palette in my desk for when I get to work though 😂

    I have no idea. I love a good old red lip, but I think I will leave that up to the makeup artist! I’m sure she will know the perfect color to put on me.

    I say go for it! Maybe get an opinion from your mom or bridesmaids or us here! You do want to feel glam and beautiful but not to the point it feels so different like its not you. However, you'll always feel a little different if you're pretty minimal with makeup then have a full face for a special event like your weddings. I think that's totes normal Smiley smile

    Just keep some brushes handy and you'll have a quick look right at your desk! Smiley winking

    Tan and acrylics, the essentials!

    Yes I think the dramatic makeup will photograph well! Sometimes when I do my every look i think to myself is this too much, but then a selfie says otherwise Smiley catface
