shayna bloomer's israel wedding {hairs and makeups}

After 5 long hours of hair and makeup, I looked and felt like a superstar! I totally got the star treatment and I have to say I could really get into this!  I had extensions, a few more eyelashes thrown in, layers upon layers of makeup that somehow ended up looking like I was naturally born that way, and the messy side bun of my dreams! No wonder celebs look the way they do! Thanks to Sharon Pur {the hair genius} and Sigal Grushka {the make-up genius} for such an amazing experience. I had so much fun with them and am currently plotting another reason to hire them again! But fear not...it won't be for wedding #3!
Here are a few shots of the process that Sharon took throughout the day!

Look at her glorious makeup kit!

She starts with the eyes and then goes on to create a base on the rest of the face...see the shadows she creates under the makeup that accentuate all the right areas? So that's how you get a vogue cheek!! She has such delicate artist hands too...she just lightly brushes the face with all the patience in the world!

My team!

A sneaky shot by photographer Shahar Drori...it totally looks posed but I swear it wasn't!

The finished product! My perfectly beachy makeup and my coveted messy side bun!

Day 5 & 6: Caterer + Make-up Artist Attempt #3

We met the catering company finally and were able to look at their selection of linens. You can pick as many as you want to and it all comes included in the price! Woo hoo! We were also given a delicious selection of chocolate desserts to nibble on as we chose, these people truly know the way to my heart! And to even further excite me, that Krembo dessert I was talking about last post is on the menu! YUMMY!

Here is an example of the linen colours we selected:

And finally...finally...after another make-up artist cancellation at the last possible second (that makes 2 out of our 3 scheduled appointments) , an extremely talented and lovely woman by the name of Sigal Grushka (http://sg.form.co.il/), agreed to take us on at the end of her horribly busy day and thank goodness that she did because not only were we completely out of time, BUT she gave me a cheek worthy of Vogue magazine! I'm in love. I can't believe I have to wait another 9 months to have my Vogue cheek back!

Seriously...look at my vogue cheek!
