Location- check. Flowers-check. Music-check. Dress-check. After months and months of planning and anticipation, it’s finally the big day. But everyone knows that as important as a perfect wedding is, the thing people are going to remember the most is how gorgeous the bride looked.
Enter our talented hair and make-up professionals to make the sure the bride is absolutely as stunning as she can be. Carrie McCleod of Paper Dolls Wedding Hair and Makeup calls herself a “hopeless romantic” and can’t get enough of wedding hair and makeup.
“I love when a bride looks at herself in the mirror when I’m finished and I can see in her smile that she loves the way she looks. There are so many touching moments that I get to witness and be a part of at every wedding that I do. I think that my absolute favorite is when the Dad sees his little girl for the first time and starts to cry. Every girl deserves to find love and every bride deserves to feel beautiful on her wedding day!” Carrie says.
Another of our favorite stylists is Tanesha Dupree of Affair Hair by Tanesha, who discovered her gift for cutting hair at 13 (the age most of us are just getting over cooties). Her hair styles are well, works of art.
“Hair has always been one of my many canvases and my brushes mirror those of any great artist.Making hair beautiful has always been “my thing” long before I knew it was “my thing”. As a child it was “something to do” but as an adult it is “what I do” and I hope I have the pleasure of doing it for you,” Tanesha says.
Celebrating her tenth anniversary making Charleston brides beautiful with Moore Make Up, Leslie Moore is a makeup artist with a mission: make every woman look and feel her absolute best.
Leslie says “Something happens when a woman feels radiant, confident, and absolutely beautiful…something happens to them on the inside- it’s like a switch or a spark. I feel if I am lucky enough to have anything to do with that moment, or better yet, if I have the opportunity to instruct them how to get that on their own…then that’s what it’s all about. That’s the big picture!”































































































Butlers used to direct the guests to their tables, but since most of us don’t have butlers anymore, cards have to suffice.
