Venue, dream dress and flowers chosen… While these are vital decisions for any girl to make before her Big Day, an important decision that often gets overlooked in the early stages of planning, is what beauty look will best suit the occasion (and the dress, of course!).
While a classic smokey eye and nude lip has become the standard in bridal beauty, we love that more and more women are breaking away from the stereotype and embracing different looks, such as a bold lip!

Maybelline Superstay 24hr Lip Colour is definitely a must have for a bride because there isn’t much time to reapply makeup.
I would do the bottom left for my wedding <3
The first make-up look is stunning.
These girls look stunning, love these looks
Ooh some fabulous products! Some are a bit pricey though.
I think the first girl is lovely, the face is flawless, wow
Love the looks. So youthful and really do the ladies best features justice.
I love the first look with the winged liner, it makes you look more awake and makes the eyes look bigger.
Classic, simple, clean and neat make up is the best bridal make up for all cultures and complexions.
The first picture is absolutely stunning. Bold lips are nice, but the standard is successful for a reason.
