Soft and Natural Shimmery Make-Up

Here's a few super soft, natural make-up inspiration photos.   Perfect for a tropical beach wedding here in Costa Rica!

Adriana & Eric

We met with Adriana ahead of time for her hair and make-up trial and from the very start, it was obvious that this wedding was going to be beautiful, romantic and stylish. 

Adriana is Costa Rican but met Eric in New York, where they were both living.  They decided to have their nuptials here in Costa Rica at Reserva Conchal.  It was wonderful to get to spend some time with her two beautiful sisters, friends and mom as we got them dolled up for the beachfront ceremony.

Mary & Tom

Congratulations to Mary & Tom on their romantic elopement at Capitan Suizo in Tamarindo.  Despite the dark thundering clouds that were threatening to roll in right at wedding time, they had a beautiful, intimate ceremony -- no rain!

Catherine's classic styled wedding.  Beautifully photographed by Toh Gouttenoire.

 

Thanks to Caroline for the following review:  

"Thanks for everything, all of the girls were so happy with their hair and makeup, and I received countless compliments all night (and now with photos after).  I'd love to encourage other brides to use you guys.  Can't say thanks enough."

Edible Art

This is totally off the topic of beauty, but we recently did a wedding and the cake was just so gorgeous that I had to take some pics and post them here. It was a spectacular double layer cake with white frosting and what I thought were real orchids. But come to find out, they were not real, they were sculpted frosting.  

Tell me that's not gorgeous?!?

It was made by Victoria Zoch.  To see more of her of beautiful works of art - check her out on Facebook.
