Wedding Day Makeover

Well, Heidi, Angie, Rowan, and Michelle invited me and mom to get a makeover at Nordstoms to create a wedding day look at the Laura Mercier counter. I had a BLAST!!!! Our makeup artist, Patrick, did such a great job I hired him to come do my look for the wedding, and he's going to do mom's too, isn't she beautiful! I'm so excited!!!!


I shouldn't really tell you my secret, but I will....I'm wearing fake eyelashes just to make my eyes look a little bit more dramatic and they will look AWESOME in pictures. This is Patrick trimming my lashes so they are the perfect length. This was a little scary, he told me to stare towards the ground and not to move an inch!


Here is Patrick putting on the finishing touches to my gorgeous wedding day look! Didn't he do a great job!


Here is me and mom admiring our beautiful looks for my big day! What a fun mother daughter moment!

AHH aren't we beautiful, all pretty now! Wasn't it fun mom??

This is Patrick, my WONDERFUL makeup artist!! Can I hire him to do my makeup everyday?

Here is my finished product! I LOVE IT!!! My wedding is still over 3 months away....come on, I can't WAIT until I can look this good again!! HEHE! Did I mention how AWESOME Patrick is! Mom, PPPLLLEEAASSSEEE can I hire him for good, he can come over every morning and make me beautiful! .....in my dreams! :) LOL

OK, here is the funny thing about mom, she doesn't normally wear any makeup because it made her eyes itch....so as Patrick was doing her eyeliner she blinked and made him mess up.....on each eye, she did it twice...it was pretty fun!!!

Mom getting her lips done....so pretty!

Mom's final product!!!! Love your makeup mom! :)

Now the question is, to wear glasses or contacts....HUMMMM both look pretty....guess we'll just have to wait and see......

What a pretty mom I have! Gotta love her! We were really excited about this wondeful makeup line by Laura Mercier, it doesn't itch or irratate mom's face or eyes at all! She finally found a mascara that she can wear!! YEAH!

So we had a BLAST that day! I would totally recommend all brides to be to do that with their mom's its a great bonding experience! And a lot of fun!

OH and as far as other wedding stuff goes, I got all my invitations all printed and cut up, we just need to get the actual invite scored so its easier to fold them, then we will do our artsy magic to them and get them all stuffed and ready to go. I'm hoping to have them all done and sitting in a box way before its time to send them off, so then all I'll have to do is drop them in the mail. And we have our engagement photos on Thursday, so that will be fun to do those. We are going down on the baseball field to get some shots, of course, and then since we are from town and we love being in town we thought why not take pictures in the prettiest place, the falls and the new bridge, it will be so pretty with the river and all the green trees and flowers. I can't wait!!

I think Kris should try to go without her glasses, at least for the pictures. Show off those beautiful eyes!!

Love ya,
