Destination weddings are the perfect blend of adventure, celebration, and romance — and as a bridal makeup artist, I know that each event leading up to the big day deserves its own unique glam! Whether it's a beachside ceremony or a luxurious resort celebration, I'm here to make sure your makeup is flawless, fun, and picture-perfect for every single event.
Let's talk about all the fabulous moments where glam is key!
1. Rehearsal Dinner Glow-Up ✨
The rehearsal dinner kicks off the wedding festivities, and you want to look your best! This is the perfect time to go for a slightly elevated, yet natural glam look. Think: soft, glowing skin, defined eyes, and a pop of color on the lips. You’re mingling with close family and friends, so you want to look radiant without overshadowing the wedding day itself. 💫
Pro tip: Time is everything! Allot at least 60-90 minutes to ensure you get a gorgeous, stress-free look without rushing.
2. Welcome Party Glam 💃
Welcome dinners (or parties!) are where the real fun begins. You’ve arrived at the destination, the vibes are high, and it’s time to celebrate. For this event, I love to create a look that's a little more daring or fun — maybe a sultry bronze eye to complement a tropical setting, or a bold lip to match your vibrant outfit. 🌺
To keep things organized, it's important to plan out hair and makeup early in the day, especially if your welcome party is scheduled around sunset. I always recommend booking 90 minutes for your makeup to ensure we can perfect every detail.
3. Big Day Bridal Glam 👰
This is the moment we've all been waiting for! The wedding day is all about making you feel like the best version of yourself. Depending on your style, we can go for timeless elegance, romantic soft glam, or a radiant, natural look that highlights your beauty in every shot. The key here is coordination — we’ll need to schedule time for both makeup and any touch-ups throughout the day, especially as you move from ceremony to reception.
Typically, bridal makeup takes 90-120 minutes to allow for everything from perfect skin prep to final touches. And don't forget your bridal party! We’ll organize their makeup looks to complement yours while keeping the morning fun and smooth.
4. Post-Wedding Brunch Beauty ☕️
Who says the glam stops after the wedding? The post-wedding brunch is another chance to look fresh and fabulous. After all, you’ll be greeting family and friends and reliving the best moments from the night before. For this, a light, fresh look is ideal — think glowing skin, soft eyes, and a hint of lip color.
Even for a casual brunch, you deserve to feel your best, so make sure to schedule a quick 45-60 minute session to get ready.
