Dare to wear a bold lip on my wedding day??

Hello dears - has anyone had experience with going with a really bold lip on their wedding day? My wedding colors are deep jewel tones (burgundy, navy, deep greens, etc.) and it will be on the first day of fall, so I am tempted to go with a deep red/wine colored lip for my wedding day. Has anyone...

Hello dears - has anyone had experience with going with a really bold lip on their wedding day? My wedding colors are deep jewel tones (burgundy, navy, deep greens, etc.) and it will be on the first day of fall, so I am tempted to go with a deep red/wine colored lip for my wedding day. Has anyone else had experience with this? I found a great Anastasia lipstick that works great and stays on pretty welll (I added a quick pic of the color for reference). My sister/Maid of Honor is a very talented makeup artist so she will be helping me with my wedding makeup, but I wanted some input from other brides before I decide to go so bold with this color. Any advice you guys have would be greatly appreciated, thank you! Smiley kiss

    Bold colors make such an elegant and dramatic choice! A bold lip would make for a beautiful wedding makeup choice!

    This was my thought too! I feel like (for the long term) the wedding isn’t a time to experiment with a totally new statement makeup style. If ya go bold like that —as part of your regular style, go for it! But if it’s a new thing to match colors and theme, I’d think critically on it first to make sure it’s what ya really want,

    I'm a bit gothy, so I was planning on a dark saturated color for my lips, fingers, and toes. Go for it!

    I asked opinions on my makeup trial on Facebook and most of the comments were about toning down the lip color hahahahaha I had to tell them the red lip was a personal request and I was asking about the rest lol

    I have always been a fan of a bold lip!! I think it adds something different to the look. However, I was a little nervous about doing it for my wedding day... But it looks amazing on you

    It's a lovely color!

    If you bought the lipstick already, why not do a test run? Wear it for a day and check to see how long before you need to reapply and how much it transfers.

    Love that lip color on you! What is your plan for the rest of your face? Cheeks? Eyes? I would just make sure the look feels cohesive with the lip color and your hairstyle of choice!
