MADDY

Hair + Makeup: Makeup by Bonnie Lee | Photography: Little Black Bow Photography

I would have to be one of the luckiest girls in the world to sit here and be writing about the love of all the beautiful brides I am fortunate enough to spend my time with. For me, it’s not only about enjoying their journey into marriage from the sidelines, but I get to be the one who has each and every one of them feeling and looking amazing from the inside-out on the morning of their wedding day - and in turn, create life long friendships and forever memories.

There is so much more to it than just the makeup and the hair. Yes, this is absolutely vital (duh!) but what really brings me all those goosebump vibes is knowing that just by doing what I love, I get to bring joy to others during such a special time.

My morning with Maddy and her girls was undoubtedly full of laughter. From the moment I walked into her family home I felt like I had been part of their furniture for years. I instantly felt the love from the moment she opened the door with her big, welcoming, open-armed cuddle. I was riding solo that day; it was me, two hair kits and two makeup kits - it was game on - and my oh my did we have fun along way. When Dea (Little Black Bow Photography) arrived, it couldn’t have been more perfectly timed. Final touches were in play and it was my time to say goodbye.
I never get to see much of what goes on after I leave, I am always hoping that they love what I created just as much as I did - so when I receive this kind of email - along with a gallery of dreams - it is guaranteed that I am jumping up and down with a little tear in my eye and reading it proudly (and loudly) out loud.

“From the moment we met, it was like we had known each other before.. Then on our special day, you just slipped right into the morning like everything and everyone belonged in the room. The girls and I don't often wear makeup, but you created a natural earthy look for us all which was just perfect! You are just the perfect mix of friendly, kind, bubbly and professional.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Thank you for being apart of our special day. I have had comment after comment about how good my makeup and all the girls makeup and hair looked on our wedding day. Looking through our photos it’s was just perfect. I can’t Thank you enough. Thank you again for being apart  of our special day Bonnie!”
