incidental trial make-up --tippy destacamento :)

as mentioned, we already had our engagement shoot last wednesday. ♥

but what i'm going to share is my trial make-up with my hmua, tippy. i came to the conclusion earlier upon booking him that i won't do trial make-up anymore. i know people will have different opinions regarding this. but, that's me. i'm so trusting that way. haha. :P i did not have second thoughts on that decision so i moved on with my life right after, hehe.

but come engagement shoot meeting with our p/v supplier, i realized i need to consider my hmu. so, first thing came to mind was tippy. i contacted him and asked if he's free on our shooting date. and lucky was i, he was. even if it was short noticed. :))

 

we came early for our schedule so he suggested that he will show me my wedding make-up look before he will do my engagement look. i agreed, hihi. XD

i'll share my wedding trial make-up look. please excuse my face. XD

photos were taken from my phone cam.

fresh lang, haha. i have eyebrows, hooza!! X))

ze hair. yes?

engagement shoot, check!

my oso and i had our engagement shoot last wednesday. woot woot! :D

we were blessed with good timing, fine weather and good people that day. God is good. :)

will post more soon. XD i feel like it's too early to post them. but i want to blog because i'm very happy with the sample pictures they sent us yesterday. :))

the people who made it happen, our p/v team and hmua team, they are wonderful! ♥

first fitting, check!

i finally saw my bridal gown! *woot* *woot*

in all fairness, it really looked like this. but the belt part is not so much, i'll have it remade since it did not circle around my waist like i wanted. plus, i gained two inches on my hip area since my measurements were taken. so it's kinda tight and does not close at the back. :)) i blame it on my undisciplined eating habits --and yet, i'm munching on mrs. fields brownies as i'm typing. =)))

we had our fitting at oso's place since their land area is way better than our home. XD

my mom and sister came. mom suggested to add beads on my gown. she does not want it to be that simple --mom is mom, hihi. :> and i'm fine with it. we'll have another fitting by second week of may. i hope i will fit into my gown by then! :)))

i never thought that i'll have weight issues during this wedding preparation since i believe i'm thin and it is difficult for me to gain weight. but here i am, having that kind of problem. :))) balanced diet ftw! :D

oso is lucky. he had his suit in one go. it's finally done and he looks so fly on it! ♥

 

who made our gown and suit? ..will tell once it's done. :)

 

i'm happy with the results of yesterday even if i gained. things are finally coming together and the wedding is more realistic to me now. 6 months to go! ♥

i sorta met my jeweler

i finally convinced oso to show me who made my engagement ring. :))

it pays not to be persistent sometimes, hahaha.

here is her site. and here is my ring on her site. seeing things like this makes me chirpy! :">

i haven't met roxy yet. but oso promised me i will soon. we will comission her to do our wedding bands as well. i need to thank her for this fab ring. ♥

 

our wedding band design is not yet final. we need to discuss with roxy the style we want and also discuss the pricing. i hope the negotiation runs smooth. if it does, we will post as usual. :)

 

to be honest, choosing the wedding band was much difficult than choosing my wedding gown. seriously. :))
