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?

    You can always talk to makeup artists too and ask what they would recommend for weddings

    Lol Im glad you posted this because I really wasnt sure about it but my HMUA is a good friend of mine and she made me go full glam, as in everything you mentioned above. She said it wouldn't show up in pics otherwise. I got tons of compliments on my makeup but Im normally a little foundation, mascara and some light blush. This was my makeup after HMUA got a hold of me. Im still not sure, but most likely yes because the pics of my face looked good after bridal portraits.

    I think your makeup looks beautiful Jessica!! Obviously, what's most important is that you are happy and comfortable with how it looks on your wedding day so make sure you get what you want! 😊

    I’m going in between. I never wear make up (I’m an athlete, so there is no point, I would sweat it off 5 minutes into my day)! If I have to really dress up, I will do some eyeliner and mascara.


    For my wedding, I want to play up my eyes, but my lips will be more subdued. For whatever reason, I am always very aware of it and uncomfortable. If I’m dressing up, I wear either chapstick or clear lipgloss, lol! I love seeing brides do full glam though!

    Definitely stay true to yourself! You want to look like YOU for your wedding not have a certain look because it's "popular". Personally, I ALWAYS wear makeup. Half our wedding guests have never seen me without it. So natural just isn't me. I was actually pretty nervous about finding makeup artist because I felt like they'd push me to a natural "bridal" look and browns and colors makeup artists commonly use look TERRIBLE on me but I was luckily enough to find someone that really understood what I was looking for so I looked like me!
