Happy New Year! Beautiful Bridal Hair & Makeup Inspiration For 2015

Happy New Year to all of my beautiful brides and brides to be!

2015 is set to be a fantastic and busy year filled with stunning hair and makeup creations for weddings, proms and countless other special occasions.

I just wanted to give you all a little reminder that spaces do book up VERY fast and hair & makeup trials need to be well in advance of your big day - so don't leave it to the last minute! Get in touch today for no strings attached info and to check availability.

With so many fantastic hair and makeup styles available to choose from, sometimes it can be tough to pick just one. That's why, on your trial day, I like to go through a variety of styles until we find something that is just right for you. It is very important to get to know your clients so that the finished result reflects their personality and individuality as best as possible and I because of this I often find that those who come in as clients, leave as friends.

To get you started on some hair and makeup ideas, here are some of my favourites looks that I have recently created, set to become HUGE for 2015. Feel inspired. xxx

Brides, Brides, Brides! Amazing Bridal Hair and Makeup Styles by Pam Wrigley

Hedda & Karen went for a classic bridal style and it looked perfect in every way!

Laura went for a beautiful braided chignon. Here she is with her proud parents and entourage!

Bridesmaid hair!

Rachna had very natural looking makeup which worked wonderfully with her amazing skin and huge eyes! Her half up half down do really set it all off :)

Amazing Venues!! I am so lucky :) 

REAL BRIDES August 2014 (some of them anyway! More to come. Watch this space...)

August is always one of my busiest months for brides, and this year was no exception! So chocka block with fabulous styles and AMAZING venues, it's hard to know where to begin. In fact, there are so many excellent looks this month that I am going to break them up into two blogs! Here are a selection to get you started...

Julie went for a retro feel complete with her mum's 1964 bridal headpiece! Julie bought some netting for £2.50 off eBay and at the last minute, I created her birdcage veil. Such fun!  Here she is, looking absolutely fantastic, posing on her Camden Lock penthouse apartment balcony. 

Sarah went for a gorgeous half up half down do (with a little added volume on the crown!), whilst her bridesmaid had this wonderful, intricate braided bun. Perfect with their outfits! Just love them.

Sini also opted for the half up half down style (a popular choice for a reason!), with a fab, diamante hair accessory. Doesn't she look great?!

I helped Lindsay to get ready for her big day, at Kensington Roof Gardens, by styling this beautiful low, curled bun with a mini beehive. I had some lovely comments from Lindsay about our time together: "Hi Pam, I can't thank you enough for everything. Sorry I got getting stressed at the end. My hair and make up was perfect and stayed perfect and I had so many compliments. I had the best day of my life.  It was a pleasure working with you, you was so calm and so helpful and most importantly you created a look that was beyond my expectations and for that I will be eternally grateful.Thank you!"

Roxy wore a chic high bun to show off her enviable dress, finished with antique lace. She looked fabulous and her 'round the world' wedding cake was a stroke of genius!

Sarah also wore a gorgeous half up half down do, complete with tiara! Here she is with her mum and bridesmaid, ready to walk down the aisle in Chelsea.

Cordelia exuded Downton Abbey elegance at her wedding in Cain Manor, accompanied by her THREE pregnant bridesmaids! One baby was due in 4 days at the time...

I was lucky enough to style Katy Compton, an up & coming soprano singer! I just loved her floor length veil. Stunning!

So many more brides to come for August...watch this space! xxx

July 2014 Pam Wrigley's REAL brides - hairstyle inspiration!

I think it's safe to say that July was a little bit of a disappointment, weather wise, BUT that didn't stop the beautiful weddings rolling in. My brides all looked fantastic - it's always such a pleasure to work with such amazing people. I really do have the best job in the world... 

Anyway, enough bragging from me :) let's get onto what you REALLY want to see - July's real brides!

 

Alison looked positively radiant for her wedding at Hedsor House, as did her gorgeous bridesmaids! Her elegant, down 'do worked perfectly with her strapless gown and the braided up styles that her entourage went for completed Alison's look perfectly as well!

Jan's swept back style looked pretty amazing, matched with that fab, traditional jewellery, don't you think? I just adore that headpiece she wore. Also, would you check out the tresses on her sister Meera?! Wow - It's such fun working with hair like that. Glossy, full and with a bit of added sparkle!

Joo was lucky enough to have her big day celebrated at the idyllic setting of Nonsuch Park - what a wonderful place! Her curled up, chignon style with incorporated braiding and woven accessories to finish has got to be my favourite style I worked with this month - just perfect - and it looked wonderful with her veil fixed in too.

Nancy looked every inch the princess with her enviable, tumbling curls! Set off with that fab diamante hair band - you just can't go wrong really. Truly beautiful :)

Tracy's style suited her down to the ground and looked absolutely fantastic! A mix between a grecian up 'do and a classic bridal style, finished with a flowing, mid length veil - this look worked for her so well and I am so happy to have been a part of this precious occasion.

Thank you to all my beautiful brides for making my job possible! xxx
