16 days until Disney World!
23 days until the wedding!
I can’t believe everything is happening so quickly!
There are only a few more things to do and I’m done!
As soon as I take my seat on the plane I will be shutting off my brain with all things wedding planning and just letting the chips fall where they may.
But until then I thought another wedding update is in order.
Hair and Makeup.
Being a licensed cosmetologist and makeup artist this part was extremely hard for me.
In all seriousness I’ve been trying to figure those two things out my entire year of planning.
Thankfully, everything kind of fell into place at the perfect time and I’m really happy with my decisions.
Hair Prep:
I will be getting my hair colored and trimmed two weeks prior to leaving for Disney World (this week).
I’m not doing anything crazy to my hair. It’ll be colored one solid brown color, my natural hair color.
The trim will be super tiny, just to clean up the ends.
Wedding Hairstyle:
Because of the detailed back of my wedding dress, I decided on an updo.
I definitely didn’t want anything to high or tight.
You know when you see someone with an updo and it looks super shiny and crunchy?
Yeah, that’s the look I’m avoiding!!
I wanted something modern, romantic and soft which lead to my final decision.
(again sorry for the large pictures!)
Wedding Hair Accessory:
This, my friends, was such a splurge item. I had absolutely no intention of spending so much on my hair accessories for the wedding but once I saw this I fell in love. I compared everything to this and nothing compared! So, after discussing it with Trav we agreed we could afford it and I purchased it!
My hair accessory is called the Helen Halo from My Olivia Nelson on Etsy.
This is obviously a stock picture.
The one I ordered looks exactly like it only it's rose gold and silver and has clear beads and swarovski crystals instead of pearls
(Pearls are bad luck in Polish culture so I had to ax them or my family would freak)
Jaclyn, the shop owner, makes handmade pieces that are exquisite.
I highly recommend her items! The pictures just don’t do it any justice.
I can do a more in depth review if anyone wants that.
Makeup Prep:
I’ve begun to tan a little bit a few times a week. Trust me, this is the absolute last thing I wanted to do. I’m not a tanning bed kind of girl. I’m actually really against it! I would like to have cancer and wrinkle-free skin for as long as possible! but I had no other options if I wanted to avoid the following:
·Looking orange on wedding day ( If I spray tanned)
·Going to Florida pale and getting weird tan lines that would be visible on my wedding day.
·Having the wrong color foundation and concealer for my tan skin.
I tan extremely easily so I know these things would happen.
I know these seem so superficial but whatever. It’s my wedding day and I’d like to look bomb dot com
The second thing for makeup prep is getting lash extensions! Those will be applied to my eyes the day before I leave for Florida.
Lash extensions can be super pricey but I decided I would splurge on them for two reasons:
1. One less thing I have to worry about having with and applying on the wedding day
2. They look a lot nicer and more natural (you know, besides your own actual lashes)
Wedding Makeup:
Since we’re getting married on Castaway Cay, I wanted a “Bronzed Goddess” kind of look.
Simple and still looks like me but special. (Picture is not of me
)
As always, let me know what you all think! I love reading your input and ideas!
you will have to post lots of pictures so I can live through you 
and your going to have such an amazing time just try to relax once your there ( I know easier said than done
