Book Hair & Make-Up Artist -- Check!

I intended to splurge on hair and make-up . . . that was, until I splurged on the venue, the videographer, the dress, and just about every aspect of wedding planning.  Besides, the cheap side of me just could not justify spending four or five hundred dollars on hair and makeup.   Alas, I didn't want to compromise quality for the price.  Finally, after three months of research, I had an excellent trial with Natalie Burketov and booked her for my wedding :)

Here are some pictures from my trial (2 hours and 48 hair pins later):

This fake smile makes me look so dorky . . . but really, I'm quite happy with the results and the price is definitely on the low end.  Now I'll just have to find some hair jewelry and discuss with my FMIL the style of veil I want (of which I don't have a clue).

P.S. - It is quite strange to write an AW post on my local message board, and then post a blog entry . . . it's like repeating myself again.
