Happy 2012! (Yes, I am aware we took a 1-year hiatus from blogging...see our facebook page for our last year's events: www.facebook.com/mghairandmakeup )

First, we want to say a big thank you to all of our brides from 2011! It was an amazing year, extremely full and fun, and we are so honored we were able to be a part of your big day!

Secondly, we want to say how excited we are to have received the "Editor's Pick" for The Knot's Best of Weddings 2012! New Jersey was added to our 2011 award of Twin Cities, Chicago and New York.




We also received the Bride's Choice award for 2012 from WeddingWire!













Our episodes from the new season of David Tutera's My Fair Wedding on the WE TV Network are still airing as reruns, so be sure to tune in to the Dragonfly Bride and Old Hollywood Glamour Bride to see us at work!

We have also been hard at work with The Wedding Guys and Unveiled Wedding Event with our sister company, Bridal Beauty Artists Network, in Dallas, Atlanta, and the Twin Cities during 2011. We also will be on the new TLC wedding reality show with The Wedding Guys and Randy Fenoli of Kleinfeld, Randy to the Rescue, airing this spring!

We are excited to see what all 2012 will bring!

They Did It Again!

The Wedding Guys® honored with three prestigious BSPi Star Awards!



Since 2003, MG Hair and Makeup and our sister company, Bridal Beauty Artists Network, have been working with The Wedding Guys creating the gorgeous hair and makeup for the models of their main stage and couture runway shows.



The Unveiled Wedding Event produced by The Wedding Guys, Matthew Trettel and Bruce Vassar, received three Bridal Show Producers International STAR Awards for Best Show Marketing, Best Show Program and Best Show Television Commercial at the 2010 BSPI Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada on May 1, 2010. The BSPI - STAR Awards are designed to acknowledge the extraordinary efforts, performance, and outstanding contributions in the bridal show industry.

The BSPi STAR Awards were presented to The Wedding Guys, in recognition of a mark of global distinction and the highest level of professional acknowledgement within the bridal show industry today with their national show tour of the Unveiled Wedding Event in Dallas, TX and Atlanta, GA. To date the work of The Wedding Guys has been honored with a total of eight (8) BSPi Star Awards.

The Unveiled Wedding Event is a national show tour created by The Wedding Guys redefining the typical bridal trade shows. "People communicate and interact differently in today's social networking world," said The Wedding Guys, "and the market needs to respond in the same way". No longer do brides want to walk down rows and rows of exhibits, they want a fun and exciting shopping experience. They want an experience of interacting with their wedding service providers. "As much as technology has changed how people communicate today, perhaps some traditional events such as weddings still require that face to face experience that only a bridal show can offer."

"Unveiled is the best bridal experience we've ever participated in! From the very beginning to the very end the Unveiled Team created a modern chic "New" approach to the way a bride should view their wedding experience. RSVP Special Events & Design will be there every year, to support this incredible show! Thanks Unveiled for staying true to the essence of the modern bride!         - Mrs. Randi Moore, Owner, RSVP Special Events & Design

The Wedding Guys® looking to redefine by design the state of weddings, have found themselves launched into the international wedding scene more then they have ever been before. 'Each year the bar has been raised, but now it's been raised even higher," said Trettel. Partnering with local wedding service providers, The Wedding Guys created the Unveiled Wedding Event - a wedding trunk show experience with everything a bride could need for her wedding. As one bride said who recently attended their show in Atlanta, GA, "I loved the wide assortment of vendors. I have been planning my wedding for 18 months and didn't expect to find anything new, but I found a lot! I have completely changed many elements of my wedding based on what I found at your show. "

Upcoming Unveiled events are October 10, 2010, at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas, TX and November 14, 2010, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA. Show information is available at UnveiledWeddingEvent.com

Unveiled in Dallas

So here are some pics from the Unveiled wedding event October 4th, 2009, in Dallas, Texas! It was an amazing show, produced by The Wedding Guys, sponsored by Stardust Celebrations, Texas Monthly, Get Married, Dallas Brides, Hakimsons Films, Cort Event Furnishings, --if you missed it, March 6th, 2010 is your next chance--don't miss out!






For the models' makeup, we did a smokey gray eye, luminous skin, flushed cheek and berry stained lip.


For the hair, we did loose curls in a romantic updo that is flattering on everyone regardless of face shape or hair type.


You can also see one of the big trends in birdcage veils this year--the veil has clips on both sides, some have flowers or feather poofs on one or both sides for added drama. The clips make it easy to put in and take out if you desire.







And here are the models backstage getting ready to go out on the runway!







Once we get other images, we will be sure to post those for your viewing pleasure as well!

Wedding TrendSpot Press Fashion Show

MG Hair and Makeup is proud to present to you video from our work with The Wedding Guys at the Wedding TrendSpot Press Fashion Show at The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel from Bridal Fashion Week, also known as Bridal Market, in New York City October 18th, 2009! The show featured the work of Alisa Benay Bridal Couture, ARIA dress, Casablanca Bridal, Toni Federici, AKAY Bridal, Pixton Couture Bridal, Katerina Bocci, Valena Valentina, AcQuachiara, Augusta Jones, Karen Hendrix Couture, Beth Elis, Jorge Manuel, Debra Moreland is Paris, and Martinez Valero.

We have been going non-stop with the premier of the Unveiled wedding fashion show at the beginning of October in Dallas, Bridal Market two weeks ago and this past weekend The Wedding Fair fashion show in the Twin Cities. All looks were slightly different and images will be posted to our website soon, however we wanted to share our work at Bridal Fashion Week with you now. These images below are by Paul Newland of Solvara. More images can be seen at the links below the video links.



For the hairstyle, we did large barrel curls and pulled it back for a romantic half-up look.



For the makeup, the skin was fresh and slightly bronzed with a little shimmer. We used a copper shadow on the eyes with a sheen to keep the look from going to dark. The lip was a bitten berry stain with a sheer bright pink gloss on top.
