    I get married on saturday and i must say when i had my make up trial i looked really different a new improved me if you like! I haven't had a hair trial as my bridesmaid and stepdaughter to be lives a long way and she is doing my hair although we have discussed styles i have no real idea how different i will look.
    I saw a friends photo's recently from her big day and she looked stunning but i thought she looked so different i hardly recognised her.

    My h2b has seen my make up but you do need more on because of all the photos.
    My hair is up buthe has seen it up a lot as I've been growing my hair for 2 years.

    I'm going to look different but in a good way and I think he will like it.

    Don't worry too much Hun just enjoy it :-)

    Good luck xxxxx

    I will look a bit different it don't wear make-up daily only when I'm going out for a night out which is about 4 times a year! And it's not everyday you wear a wedding dress I'm yet to decide in my princess gown or fitted lace style x

    My Husband doesn't like me with lots of make up as he thinks natural is more beautiful!!
    So, always had that in mind when I did my make up on the day.
    The pictures looked great and I had lots of compliments that I didn't go OTT.
    Some Weddings I've been to the bride has looked so different and scarey!!!
    I say less is more when it comes to make up, you don't want to look like you're part of a clown act on your BIG day!!!

    I wanted to look like me so I done my own makeup. I knew I would not be happy with how somebody else done it.

    I wear make up on a daily basis for work and when I'm going out But I think wedding make up is much heavier and needs to be too last all day and to look stunning in pictures I could Do My Make Up Myself But I Want To Be Beautified The Morning Of My Wedding & Not Lift a Finger So I will Get my make up done I want to be transformed into a bride and see how different I look H2B seen me with make up on and off and says to me You don't need to wear make up he actually kinda gets mad at me when I put it on He says "Who you trying to Impress" I say no one just for myself I feel prettier with my face on and more confident yes I guess its like a natural mask that builds up my confidence =D <3 X

    I can fully understand the confidence side of it as I refuse to go out of the house without some mascara and eye liner on, however I feel that he would want to see you as you, not a glorified person who is not who he wants to marry. Don't go getting the makeup done so differently that you look different, just get it done naturally.

    I did my makeup and I kept it as natural as possible. I looked different to what I normal would but not much. I never had my hair done so professionally before and I will never wear a dress like it again, so that was the only difference to my look. I wouldn't say I looked completely different, overall, just more glammed up than normal.

    Good make application should make you look like a more beautiful version of yourself. I always think of celebs without make pics for proof of this x

    It's not my aim to look very different; I think sarah put it well when she said good make-up should make you look like a more beautiful version of yourself, as that's what I'm aiming for.

    Hair-wise, I usually wear my hair loose and straight, though I sometimes wear it up in a doughnut (for work mainly); so, my hair will look different as it'll be in a professional up-do. However, I do get it done professionally once-twice a year for special occasions, so again, it won't be anything too different.

    Again i wanted to look natural on my day so i kept my makeup pretty much how i wear it everyday but just got a pricey brand of makeup and went for quality over quantity. My hair i added extensions and had it curled, but i do that from time to time anyway.. i really did feel like my self on the day :) x
