Spring & Summer & Fall Oh My! What's Your Ideal Wedding Season?

Spring & Summer & Fall Oh My!

When deciding a date to get married, there are so many things to factor into the decision. Questions may arise like...What season should we get married in? What day of the week? What does should definitely NOT be the day? Well...lucky for YOU I'm here to help! So lets settle some of those concerns!

Seasons

There are many things to consider when picking a wedding date in a specific season. For instance, do you want a spring wedding with flowers blooming and the sun shining? Or maybe a winter wedding with a blanket of snow covering the ground. Maybe the warmth of summer or coziness of fall? When deciding take into consideration your occupation. If your a teacher, it would probably be better to plan a date in the summer time. If your a tax accountant you definitely do NOT want to have a spring wedding and so on.

Day of the Week

It is important to consider the day of the week you would like as well. Do you want a weekend wedding? Or, if most of your guests are in town and available would you consider a wedding during the week? Know what you want...After all, it is YOUR day :)

Dates to AVOID

Ok. So the last thing we want to is to have our guests chose between, lets say Superbowl Sunday and your wedding. I mean, lets face it, you may not have many guests in that case. SO to avoid the risk of this happening, be sure to cancel out the days that are any big holiday's or events. July 4th, Thanksgiving, World Series, Labor Day,etc. You want ALL of your guests happily focused on your day!

5 Wedding Makeup Tips Every Bride Should Know; Brought To You By BellaSugar!

5 Wedding Makeup Tips Every Bride Should Know

Keep your makeup looking natural with these five can't-live-without tips. From our friends at BellaSugar

It's important to feel your best on your wedding day, but that's hard to do when you're wearing thick layers of powder and seven coats of mascara. Fortunately, says makeup artist Jeffrey Tasker, it doesn't take much to create stunning yet natural-looking bridal makeup. "More doesn't necessarily mean better," he says. Read his advice for boosting a bride's natural beauty — without overdoing it.

Go beyond your usual routine: Tasker suggests wearing a little more makeup than feels natural. "Makeup can be tricky for brides, because you may think you have a lot on," he says. "But when the pictures are being taken, it looks like you have nothing on."

Layer on the blush: To appear flushed and fresh-faced, use a cream cheek color. Dusting a powder blush on top will make the color pop.

Apply a hidden liner: For a natural look, don't apply eyeliner directly on the lid. Instead, Tasker recommends using Laura Mercier Tightline Cake Eyeliner ($22) with a flat eyeliner brush ($25) to tightline. Wet the brush, and apply the eyeliner underneath the top lashes. "It makes the eyes very crisp," he says. "By applying the liner inside the lid and not on top of it, it doesn't take away from the size and shape of the lid."

Make lips one shade pinker: No need to wear a bold lipstick. To make lips stand out in pictures, Tasker recommends going one shade brighter than your natural lip color.

Think sheen: Don't try to powder over natural shine, because it will only make you appear cakey. Tasker loves the dewy look. "Always use something with a little bit of a sheen to make you look glowing," he says.
