Bridal makeover! See this real bride's romantic garden-inspired transformation

The bride

Shirley Wee, 28, is an event planner who’s tying the knot at a garden venue. “I would love a feminine boho or princess look!”

Makeup

For romantic outdoor weddings, Sophia recommends fresh and natural makeup. She started by building a flawless, dewy complexion with a sheer, lightweight foundation. A soft wash of copper eyeshadow brightened Shirley’s eyes, which were then defined with eyeliner and lashings of mascara. Shirley’s brows were then pencilled in, and Sophia finished her look with rosy cheeks and gleaming peach lips.

Hair

Consider loose wavy curls for a youthful appearance, which Alvin created with Shirley’s tresses. An alternative would be a soft classic updo, to evoke elegance and timelessness.

"Besides getting to try a different look, I now know what suits me best for my wedding day!" 

Gown 

Shirley’s airy ballgown features tulle off-shoulder straps, beaded lace applique, and a glittery tulle skirt that complements her dreamy wedding theme.
