Fiona and Will’s wedding was held in the stunning grounds of Fiona’s family home in Burwash, East Sussex. It was an early start for me and my assistant Sam, who came to help me with the bridesmaids hair, on another beautiful day during the 2013 summer heatwave.
We were treated to a lovely breakfast and plenty of coffee as soon as we arrived before setting up in two of the upstairs rooms. While Sam looked after all five of the bridesmaids hair, mixing loose up do’s with half up half down styles, I did their makeup and of course bride Fiona’s makeup too. For Fiona’s makeup we went for brown and golden tones on the eyes with brown liner for definition, we kept the cheeks natural and dewy with plenty of highlighter and a little bronzer.
Outside you could see the marquee in the garden as last minute preparations were made for the reception although as the marquee had been there for a few days already most was already done allowing Fiona to have as relaxing morning as possible. We finished hair and makeup just before lunchtime and left them to enjoy the beautiful day. These pictures by Sarah Legge capture the happy smiles of Fi and her bridesmaids perfectly.
