Emily + Matthew’s Romantic Early Mountain Vineyards Wedding

emilymatt-446

Romance, a rustic winery setting, and an adorable pup: could a wedding get any better? Emily + Matthew’s Early Mountain Vineyards wedding had everything you could want from a big day. With romantic florals, stunning acreage, and one exceedingly cute dog, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

For Emily + Matthew’s wedding, we kept Emily’s makeup natural but sophisticated. With smudged liner and gorgeous lashes bringing out her beautiful eyes and a neutral lip, her natural beauty shone through during her big day. As for her hair, Emily’s strapless gown was perfectly accented by tresses pulled away from her face and shoulders in a classic up-do.

After getting ready, Emily went to meet her groom for the couple’s first look. On the stunning verdant grounds of Early Mountain Vineyards, the pair saw one another for the first time on their wedding day, and it was enough to bring tears to our eyes.

However, it was only the beginning of the day. The pair said their vows in front of family and friends, surrounded by love before going to their romantic reception. Complete with lush florals and stunning chandelier, the pair celebrated and danced the night away.

We are so happy to have been part of Emily + Matthew’s wedding day, and we’re equally as excited to share these highlights from the affair.

Love,

The Charlottesville Makeup Artist Team

Jennifer + Jason’s Autumnal High View Farm Wedding

DSC_9045-2

Does it get any better than fall weather and flower crowns? No, no it doesn’t, and that’s why we’re so smitten with Jennifer + Jason’s autumnal High View Farm wedding. From the natural meets boho glam feel to our bride’s incredible smile and she and Jason’s obvious love for one another we can’t get enough of this wedding day.

Of course, with any wedding, we’re particularly partial to the bride. Jennifer is obviously no exception. From the minute we saw her smile, we knew that her natural beauty should shine through in every photo (and thanks to Sarah Schultz-Taylor it did). We kept her makeup both minimal and natural but added a slightly more pigmented lip color because hello, her smile is everything. Of course, there’s the flower crown. We curled Jennifer’s hair into soft, boho waves perfect to match that stunning crown.

This fall wedding couldn’t be more perfect, and we’re so happy you get to see some of our favorite parts of the day.

Love,

The Charlottesville Makeup Artist LLC Team

Diana + Jon’s The Seclusion Wedding

brideandgroom-41

Soft, romantic pinks, glowing smiles, and a stunning venue all come together perfectly in Diana + Jon’s The Seclusion wedding. This big day featured a stunning mountain-view ceremony outdoors, a rustic meets romantic vibe, and of course, a couple whose love for one another radiated off them. Of course, though, our favorite part of this wedding was Diana.

Romance was key to Diana’s bridal look. We kept most of her hair down and in loose, waves with piece framing her face. Strands were then pulled back away from her face in a half-up, half-down style. For her makeup, we wanted to keep things natural but defined. Using neutral shades, we defined her eyes and played up her lashes. Her skin was natural and flushed, and for her lips, we used a soft, peachy-pink.

We’re so glad that we were able to be part of Diana + Jon’s The Seclusion wedding and hope you enjoy seeing this big day as much as we loved being part of it.

Love,

The Charlottesville Makeup Artist LLC Team

Hayley + Sam’s Verulam Farm Wedding

While winter may be ramping up, we at Charlottesville Makeup Artist LLC are still living in fall thanks to all of the stunning weddings we were part of. Hayley + Sam’s Verulam Farm wedding was one fall wedding we just couldn’t help but share. From Hayley’s smile that could light up a room to this couple’s sweet first look, we are so happy that we got to be part of this pair’s bid day.

Of course, while every moment of this Verulam Farm wedding was beautiful, it was Hayley who we couldn’t take our eyes off of. For her makeup look, we decided to give our bride a slightly smoky outer corner to play up her beautiful natural, almond eye shape and kept the rest of her look neutral and soft. As for her hair, Hayley’s bridal updo is one of our favorites. The intricate lacing in the back added a modern dimension and texture to the classic style, and we left soft pieces to fall around her face for a romantic touch.

We’re still staring at these gorgeous moments from Hayley + Sam’s wedding day and hope you enjoy seeing their love as much as we did.

Love,

The Charlottesville Makeup Artist LLC Team

Roni + Matt’s Soft Summer Wedding at Castle Hill Cider

Cool shades of sky blue, bright summer sun, and our beautiful bride? Sounds like the perfect soft, summer wedding to us. With Castle Hill Cider as the backdrop, this big day was easily one of our favorites from the past year.

While, obviously, the entire wedding was a delight, it’s our bride Roni who we can’t stop gushing about. Given the light and airy nature of this soft summer wedding, we decided to keep Roni’s makeup natural and bright like the day itself. To keep things romantic, we used soft mauve tones on her lid that brought out her stunning brown eyes, and we keep her lips sheer but tinted with a pink hue thanks to a bit of gloss. As for her skin, we wanted it to reflect the summer weather and went with a glowy look with a flushed cheek.

Finally, we left Roni’s hair down for a fresh look. We added a soft barrel curl through her dark locks and parted it down the middle for a look that framed her beautiful face.

Roni + Matt’s summer wedding was definitely one for the books, and we’re so excited to show you some of our favorite moments.
