Your East Midlands Wedding - June/July 2023 (Issue 56)

72 MODERN BOHO Rachel says, “This is the most on-trend style this year, achieved with a laminated-styled brow, bronzed tones, half liner and half lashes to create that cat eye effect! My go-to half-lashes are the PrimaLash Demi lashes, which are so easy to apply! Teamed with a Hollywood wave, and you’re ready to wow your guests!” ALTERNATIVE BRIDAL Jemma says, “The modern boho look is such a vibe! The skies are the limit with hair accessories, you could wear an art deco style headband or fresh/dried flowers in your hair. Swap full coverage make-up for light to medium products with plumped satin lips and a fresh glow. Hair looks undone with loose waves and bundles of texture!” Rachel says, “Always do you on your wedding day and be creative! I love these deep copper red tones that went perfectly with my bride’s black gown. Black or deep red lipstick create a moody alternative look that’s sure to make an impact.” Jemma says, “Dark eyes, bloodred lips and lashes are a must for this theme. The possibilities are endless as you can be creative with your outfit and styling, from a corset dress to a coloured gown. For the hair, add texture and height to create volume. Apply glitter into the make-up and coffin-shaped nails to add a bit of sparkle to an alternative bride.” DISCOVER THE SUPPLIERS INVOLVED Rachel Bray, Makeup by Rachel Bray Makeup Artistry, www.rachelbraymakeupartistry.com | Jemma Swinfield, Jemma Swinfield Hair and Make-up Artist, https://bridalhairandmakeupleicestershire.com | Jodie Needham, Jodie-Ann Makeup, www.instagram.com/jodieannmakeup https://capturedbyroxy.com www.jessyjonesphotography.co.uk Jodie says, “A boho bride suits gold tones and a soft natural lip shade or an alternative full colour depending on the time of year. Consider using the colour theme of your wedding to incorporate into your make-up. Should you choose sage bridesmaid dresses, a nod to green somewhere in your look would complement the overall harmony of your colour theme. Likewise, this is a great idea when choosing flowers and lip colours.” Jodie says, “Be you as there are no rules. A wedding should be to celebrate you and your partner. It’s the best day of your life and you should feel and look exactly how you want to regardless of traditions - just go for it!”
