Planning your wedding look can be as exciting as it is challenging. Finding a wedding hair & makeup team that fits your aesthetic is such an important part of the process. Here are our favorite bridal trends, curated for brides in Jacksonville, Florida. Let’s get into it!
1. Natural and Minimalist Makeup
Why It’s Trending: Natural beauty will probably always take our number one spot! Brides are opting for makeup that enhances their natural features rather than transforming them. You want to feel like a polished version of yourself on your wedding day, and this trend is perfect for Jacksonville’s beach and outdoor weddings.
How to Achieve It: Focus on skincare to create a flawless base of radiant skin. For a minimalist look, your skincare is your most important step. Start a routine at least a few weeks before the wedding day. Allow your artist to create a satin to matte finish on your skin and let the Florida humidity do its work to give you a gorgeous bridal glow throughout the day.
2. Curly and Textured Styles
Why It’s Trending: Staying in theme, naturally curly brides, and our wavy friends too, are opting to play up that natural texture for a more lived in and romantic look. Wearing your natural texture can help to secure the longevity of your style and looks so elegant and effortless.
How to Achieve It: This one is about care and health as well. The healthier the hair the better the curl pattern. Get into a treatment routine and trims regularly to keep your locks bouncy and lush. Show up on wedding day with fresh hair on their best day (for some of you that might mean day two) and your artist will work their magic!
3. Soft Eyes
Why It’s Trending: Brides are focusing more on clean beauty. Gone are the days of a bold wing. We’re loving the strong focus on beautiful skin and subtle enhancements to your features.
How to Achieve It: Fluffy lashes, brown liner, and a bit of shimmer is all it takes. If you were a big fan of the early 2000s, opt for a softer, smoked out wing. This will still give you the lift of a sexy cat eye. A pop of color or gloss on the lips can enhance lighter eye colors as well.
4. Accessories
Why It’s Trending: Personalized hairpieces add a unique touch to bridal hairstyles. Florals can add a bit of whimsy and femininity. We personally love sticky pearls, baby’s-breath and other smaller florals. After you take your veil off for your reception, your accessories will still be a statement.
How to Achieve It: Ask your florist for left overs, or mention you may want to use some flowers for your hair during your planning process. Some florists will make custom combs, but we find it’s better to place loose flowers with bobby pins for a more organic look. Headbands and decorative combs can be easy to find on sale at places like TjMaxx, Amazon, or Etsy. We’ve even had brides make their own! Try to have your options available during your trial so you can see your full look before the wedding day.
When choosing your wedding hair and makeup team, keep their aesthetic in mind. Do they match your vibe? If you prefer a natural look, you won’t want to book a makeup artist known for full glam, and vice versa.
