How did your make up and hair trial go have been looking into this too but no plans made
where you chair covers expensive?

What time is your wedding booked for?

helen79

Hiya, our wedding is booked for 2pm that day

My hair trial was fine thanks, but the make up I wasn't too keen on. They work together, so I am going to have to look elsewhere for someone else unfortuantely. Have found it to be quite difficult to find people willing to work on the Sunday to do my hair and make up. Nightmare!
Chair covers were from a company called Balloonique-you can look them up on the net. They were cheaper than most places.

You're welcome
I've phoned my usual beautician to see if she is free for my wedding instead, and her friend puts hair up, so fingers crossed that they are going to be free for me!

Hello Brides & Grooms,

Just popping back on here as haven't visited for a while and I cannot believe how many August brides have popped up since I created this thread on 24th August 2009! It's so lovely to hear how all your plans are coming along, only 5 months left now.....

I'm glad to be able to say that I'm done planning - we've got everything sorted!
All that is left is to pay a few final balances nearer the date.
Thankfully I can just sit back and relax and read all of your posts now.....
