In this summer 2007 issue of Wedluxe, I have a bride featured on page 89. I had the pleasure of styling hair for the bride Cherie and her attendants. It looks like their wedding was a stunning affair! And what a gesture of love from Cherie - she gave David a sports car wrapped with a big white bow in the driveway of their Brock House venue. Now, there's a gift!
A question I am asked frequently regarding styling hair is "Should I wash my hair the night before?". For me, I would prefer it to be washed the morning of the wedding. I like to create soft, more carefree styles. Unwashed hair can sometimes be greasy, and can lay flat to the scalp. I like working with fresh hair that has bounce. And I know personally that if I didn't wash my hair daily, my scalp would feel so itchy! So in my opinion - wash away!
If you are a bride wondering what favor to give each quest, consider gourmet treats to leave at each plate, like "Carrot Cake Jam". I have tasted it and is it good! The jars can be labelled especially for you as well. Another fave - "Kiwi & Rum Jam" - mmmmmm. Go to Gourmet Favours 
Who, exactly falls into the category of a mature bride? Someone over 40, 50, 60? As a mature (ah, hm) woman myself, it can be a tricky category. Lime green eye shadow is not necessarily for us. So what applications and products bring out our best? If you have a question, email me, or check out my in-depth story at Favor Ideas, an on-line wedding site.
