First, congratulations.  Being engaged is such an exciting time for you.  Choosing your wedding dress, finding the perfect venue, which flowers to choose, making sure the bridesmaids look fabulous and oh should you consider having make-up applied professionally for your wedding day?

Getting married in the autumn months or even having a wonderful winter white wedding?   Autumn leaves rich colours, of red, taupe, greens, browns and bronzes.  Winter colours with crisp whites, silvers, blue, grey hues and even pink skies in the winter months.  All these amazing colours can be reflected in make-up.

Key trends for Autumn/Winter 2012 make-up will be focus on eyes, eyebrows and eyeliner. Lipstick colours vary from pinks to reds through to deep burgundy.   This can be replicated in a softer version for your wedding day.   My advice would be to go for a make-up that enhances your features looks amazing on camera and still looks like you.
