A lovely guest post about some of my freelance work from my dear friend and beautiful bride, Sarah Cunningham :) You can contact me at LSilverStyle@gmail.com if you're interested in working with me on hair and makeup for a special occasion. Enjoy!
I grew up with LSilver and her Style – she and my sister
have been best friends since they were five years old. In a family of three sisters, she
is our fourth. Although I am four
years older than her, a small difference that can seem big when you’re young, I
have turned to her for fashion advice ever since I was a teen and she a
pre-teen. I remember getting ready
for my senior prom in our kitchen with a gaggle of my girlfriends, and Lindsey
helping us all with the finishing touches.
That lifetime of sisterly style advice is why it was an
unhesitating decision to have Lindsey do the makeup at my wedding. My bridesmaids and I were all so
excited as we planned our dresses and our hair, but we didn’t even think about
our makeup, knowing Lindsey would know best. On the day of the wedding, we got our hair done and our
dresses ready, and piled into Lindsey’s hotel room. It was there that she spread out all her goods – her
zillions of colors and brushes and blushes – an artist’s palette. We sat down on the bed and let her go
to work.
Lindsey had known my sisters and me for her whole life. However, she had just that very moment
met my soon-to-be sister-in-law, as well as our adorable little flower girls. She took one look at all of us – those
she has known forever and those she had just met – and knew instantly how to make
us up – the artist with her canvases.
Every one of us had our makeup perfectly done to accent our
looks and fit our personalities.
My sister Colleen had black eyeliner and the softest pink eye shadow; my
sister Lizzie had nude tones that fit her natural-living personality; our beautiful
flower girl had golden eyeliner that set her off in the ecstasy unique to a
five-year-old; I had eyeliner that softly sparkled. We looked in the mirror and knew we were in the hands of the
best. We zipped up our dresses and
headed out to walk down that aisle.
If anyone is considering having LSilver do their wedding
makeup and has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at nursingsarita@gmail.com. I cannot sing her praises enough and
would love to discuss the details with anyone interested.
