different from bridal<br />
beauty—a lot more goes<br />
into it. A professional’s<br />
tools and products will<br />
be top of the line, made<br />
to last and will also<br />
photograph beautifully.<br />
DO A TRIAL<br />
It’s important to know<br />
if your stylist can give<br />
you what you want and<br />
if that look suits you.<br />
You should know what<br />
to expect so there are<br />
no surprises on your<br />
wedding day.<br />

wild contrast of soft, fruity<br />
notes and sharp florals.<br />
