Do I match bridesmaid dress color to my skin tone or my bridesmaids'? I love Azazie cabernet color since I'm getting married at a winery in fall. I have pretty red toned skin, but my girls would all look great in the cabernet color. Would red look...

Most of my bridesmaids are in the US but I have one that I want to ask in Europe. How did you all ask your international bridesmaids? My wedding is in September so I worry I don't have time to send her a letter (it took 3 weeks the last time I sent...

I'm wondering where you all have found your ceremony arch? Are you renting it, making it yourself, buying it? I want to find one for cheapish but I don't have space to build it or store it. My florist doesn't offer arches to rent, and most of the...

I was wondering what everyone has done about sunny days? I have eyes that are super sensitive to sunlight and water a ton if it's bright out and I'm not wearing sunglasses. Is everyone planning to just not wear sunglasses, or to wear them for part of...

Is anyone else running into unresponsive vendors? I've been in discussions with two separate hair and makeup artists. The first one I decided against because she took 2 weeks to respond to me after I asked her for the contract. I emailed the one I...

Has anyone tried airbrush makeup with oily skin? My skin is super oily but my nose still gets some dry flakes. Does airbrush makeup tend to hide the oil shine or do you need to use blotting sheets, etc. ? I have never tried airbrush so I'm a bit...

What is considered expensive for bridal makeup? A makeup artist I really like charges $850 for my trial and day of makeup plus day of makeup for 2 additional people. I live in California in a high cost of living area. Additional people cost...
