If you’ve just got engaged and are happily delving straight into the preparations, then congratulations!
But before you start getting in a tizzy with all you want to organise, why not consider booking a girly day with your mum or bridesmaid, to learn from someone who can show you exactly how to get started?
Celebrity wedding photographer Jenny McCarthy will be bringing her WeddingsByJen masterclasses around the country, kicking off in January 2017, and trust us when we say you will learn more in that one day then a few months trawling all the wedding sites.
As a bride to be myself, I thought I was well prepped, but after attending Jenny’s first masterclass in Killashee Hotel Spa and Leisure, believe me when I say it was an eye-opener.
Glenda and Rob on their wedding day on the 29th of August.
There were so many invaluable tips I had never come across from how to pack your wedding dress, hair and make-up potential pitfalls to having a second shirt for your groom.
With over 12 years and over 1000 weddings under her belt, Jenny was the first call for some of Ireland’s top celebrities when they tied the knot, including Karen Koster, Glenda Gilson and Pippa O’Connor.
And it’s not hard to see why, there is literally nothing this woman doesn’t know about weddings, and in addition to being a great day out that really gets you into the mood for wedding planning, the advice is invaluable.
Having attended many masterclasses, the best part for me is how unique every segment of the day is. I love hair and make-up but I have no real interest in trying to keep up with a demonstration of bridal make-up.
Chances are you will be having your make-up done on the day, and it is often next to impossible to replicate a make-up demo from watching it in the audience.
But what I did need to know is what make-up I need to pack for later that night, what parts of my make-up will I need to re-touch and when, and what is really realistic for hair styles compared to the Pinterest versions?
All of this I learned and more.
That was just a handful of the extensive tips on the day, but in addition brides, their bridesmaids and any mothers of the bride/groom will also:
- Find out Jenny’s do’s and don’ts for the wedding day
- Get hair, makeup and skincare advice from Ireland’s leading professionals
- Get styling tips for the bride, groom, bridal party, guests and more!
- Enjoy a luxurious afternoon tea with Prosecco
- Go home with a fabulous goodie bag
- Win some spot prizes throughout the day
If you’d like to treat yourself or a bride in your life to a girly day out, Jenny’s next masterclass is coming to the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel in Dublin on January 21st, 2017 and to the Hodson Bay Hotel in Athlone on February 18th, 2017.
