Bridal Makeup: Selecting a Theme

There is no right or wrong when selecting a theme. It is YOUR wedding day. As a matter of fact, your theme or ideas DO NOT have to fit into the box of a particular theme. You can totally create some sort of hybrid-theme. Below are a few things to think about when creating a theme.

Creating a Bridal Theme (Things to Consider):

Where will your wedding take place?
Will the wedding be outdoors? (a church, a park, the beach?)
What time will your wedding be?
morning looks will differ from nighttime looks
Is there a particular time period you have already modeled your dress or ceremony after?
Google 20’s themed wedding looks, you may have some fun!
How much makeup do you wear daily?
Don’t stray too far from your norm. If you are normally a basic makeup type of girl (or none at all!), you may not want loads of makeup with a smokey eye!

Theme Ideas/Categories:

As mentioned, your wedding theme DOES NOT have to fit into these categories. But here are a few styles and themes to get your brain wheels turning.

BOHO: This style fits beach and outdoor weddings perfectly! Think light, peachy, luminous, etc.

GLAMOUR: This style is for the girl who loves drama and glam! Think, full colored lips, smokey eye, shimmer, bronzer, false lashes, etc.

VINTAGE: Choose any time period, google some looks and fall in love…with makeup all over again!

CHIC BEAUTY: This style fits the Bride who doesn’t wear makeup on a daily basis. This style focuses on clear skin and an overall clean look. This is wear your skincare regimen will come in handy!
