Tears. Lots and lots of happy tears is what I did when I looked at myself for the first time all done up on the day of my vow renewal. For my original wedding I did not have the knowledge or the funds to spend on dolling myself up for the big day. However, for my renewal I knew there was only one group of women that I would intrust to make that beautiful moment I had always dreamed about come true.

First off the girls are so friendly that you will bond instantly the moment you sit in their chairs. Which is a huge blessing when you start to get nervous and jittery lol. Then, when you see what their skilled hands have created, for me, was something I'll never forget. I am one of the lucky ones who's husband tells me every day that I am beautiful, but in that instant I truly believed his words and couldn't wait to walk towards him down the aisle again.

FYI, if you are like me and are in love with Pinterest but never been professionally glamoured up, make sure to book a trial run with the girls. I did it on the day of one of my fittings that way I could see it with the dress also. There are so many stunning ways to do hair and makeup for your big day that it was hard to narrow down; hair up or down, tight curls or loose, matte finish or sparkle finish... way too many options in beauty world lol. My trial was beautiful and I was able to figure out exactly how I envisioned myself in my dress.

Lastly, my mom who is almost 70, had never had her makeup professionally done and rarely her hair. So I decided to give her the "queen" moment and had the girls do her up as well. My family was FLOORED when they saw her! My dad had the biggest grin on his face which he couldn't remove (super corny and super sweet).

Thank you for everything lovelies. I couldn't of had my fairytale moment without your magic!!!

Thank you Rachel Jackie and Shantelle for making my Engagement photo session BEAUTIFIED!! I truly felt that the ladies listened to my needs and wants for the day. I had a beautiful spray tan glow, my hair and make up was exactly how I requested. My photo's came out so pretty and exactly how I had envisioned them. Thank you again for your hard work to make my day so special!!

I found Jackie, Shantelle & team on Instagram and am so happy that I booked them. We had a total of 10 women + 1 flower girl and our hair and makeup was finished in just over three hours, way ahead of schedule. It was the most stress free process because the Bombshell team came directly to our room at Caesars Palace and I didn't have to worry about getting our bridal party to a salon and back.

I had a trial (two days before the wedding) and Shantelle was fantastic at incorporating feedback from the trial into my final look. I loved that the makeup was glam yet subtle and I really felt like I looked like myself. My mom wasn't 100% happy with the first iteration of her makeup, and Shantelle was really receptive to my mom's feedback and changed it and my mom was much happier with the second look. My hair by Jackie was so pretty and the best part of all, my curls lasted for 3 days.... it was 100 degrees out on our wedding day, and my hair held up. Our wedding was Saturday, we didn't do portraits until Monday, and all I did was brush out my hair and it still looked good.

Would definitely recommend Bombshell Beauty Squad to any brides getting married in Vegas!
