I can't participate for another 7 months, but could you please post a picture of what you looked like on your wedding day vs. what you look like every day? I just got my boudoirs back and the make up made me look a lot different than what I *think* I look like every day. Just curious what the end results are for the rest of us!
I never wear makeup or really do my hair so I look a lot different in my opinion!
fun thread.
this is me at my bachelorette party a few months ago, (i'm the one with the sash obviously)

and here's one just hanging out with way less makeup

and here is me on the wedding day


@kjgirl05:you look beautiful in both pictures!
@Meowkers:whoah! You are so pretty! I love your veil:) oh, and your husband looks like patrick dempsey!
here's me in every day life...
and on my wedding day!

This is me normally (this is an e-pic, but I did my own hair and makeup)

This is wedding day

@zippylef: I adore your wedding day hair and flower. SO gorgeous.
@JewishBride: thank you for the compliment. You're gorgeous yourself! I love YOUR veil. I tried one on just like that and really considered buying it but it was too expensive. DH gets told he looks like Patrick Dempsey all the time which is awesome for me because Dempsey is my #1 celebrity crush. One time we were at Bob Saget standup thing and Bob called out DH from the audience and called him "young sir Dempsey"
The only "normal" pictures I have are engagement pictures (we are not picture people) so here we go!


I'm in the middle in the bottom picture, that was at my shower so I was a little more juj-ed up than I am on an everyday basis (as I sit here with wet hair, no bra and no makeup, haha!).


Me on St.Patties day with my MOH

and me on my wedding day, I did my own makeup since I had a hilariously bad experience with my trial run with professional makeup.


with my nephew
No makeup:

Everyday:

Wedding makeup (not really crazy about it)

Regular me (rehearsal dinner) This is a pretty typical amount of makeup since I was running late that day

Bachelorette me
Bride me

No make-up. yes, I went to a bar with no make-up on. Clearly, honey badger don't give a sh*t.
Make-up that I do for myself. This photo is from my bachelorette lunch.
Wedding day. I felt drop dead gorgeous.



I can't wait to see my "transformation" when I get make up done. Hahah. Everyone is beautiul no matter what though!
I love this thread! I can't wait to be a part of it in another 5 and a half months! :)
These are all beautiful pictures but in some ways confirm my fears that I won't look like me on my wedding day :/ Ahhh!
SURE!!! without makeup(only pic I have LOL), with makeup(50/50 of the time), and wedding day lol


So I definitely think I looked "different" in my boudoir pictures too. That's kind of the point I think. lol. The biggest difference for me with the wedding pictures is that I grew my hair out so I could have an up do. I then cut it a week later.
Everyday

Everyday Straight:
Everyday Curly:
Wedding:

The biggest differences I can tell are that I'm not make as many silly faces in the wedding pictures, and I'm less red in the face since normally I don't wear makeup.

Ooh this is a fun thread! So, I pretty much never wear makeup, and the makeup-ed me was hard for DH & my mom to take, and we already toned it down a lot!
Me at my bridal shower:

On wedding day:

If I look half as good as you ladies do on my wedding day I will be incredibly thrilled!
@zippylef: I love seeing your wedding pictures! Your wedding look is perfection!
Everyday, little to no makeup.

At my bachelorette party, this is about how much makeup I wear when I go out. (Yes, I totally has penis beads, and fake tattoos.)

And on my wedding day. I did my own makeup, partly because I didn't want to feel so made up that I didn't look/feel like myself.
Before the ceremony...
Right after the ceremony ended...

And a couple hours later.
My long/naturally curly hair (before my best friend's wedding)

Then my post-wedding chop:

Wedding day:

Everyday with DH, this is actually on our honeymoon...

Annndd the wedding day...

And with my Daddy:)

Me before the wedding, with long hair:

Me on my wedding day (I'm the one in the white dress :P ):
And finally, me after my post-wedding chop:

Love seeing everyone's photos!!
@Meowkers: Umm, can we say gorgeous couple!? You have such a gorgeous closed mouth smile - I'm jealous! I always look like an idiot when I try to smile without teeth.
Here's me with absolutely no make up on and my hair back in a ponytail - my usual everyday look.
And just before our courthouse ceremony with minimal make up on (the most I ever do for myself) and my hair pulled back in a slight sleeker ponytail. I always, ALWAYS have my hair up - unless I've flat ironed it, I can't stand it down. And clearly I couldn't be bothered to flat iron it for our legal wedding ceremony. :-)
And on the wedding day.... DH had requested a very natural look as I am quite a natural girl and he didn't want to see someone he didn't recognise walking down the aisle - I think I succeeded.
UMMMM Linquo42 I LOVE YOUR NEW HAIRDO!!!!! OMG, totally sassy :)
