As many of you already know I took a long maternity leave last year. I've taken only a few wedding bookings since then, so I remember each one of my clients exceptionally well! Peggy was one of the gorgeous brides I had the honour to look after just before Christmas last year.
Peggy is a busy person with a lot of weekend voluntary commitments. We didn't have a trial run before the wedding. Despite having done this over and over again I always feel more pressure without a trial, as I must nail the look in the first go. Before and on the wedding day we spent quite some time to discuss and make sure that I understand what Peggy had in her vision.
I was so glad (and relieved!) that Peggy thought the makeup and hair styling was flawless; that it lasted all day and there was not an eye shadow crease at the end of the day (which was one of Peggy's concerns). How stunning is this thank you note! A big thank you to Peggy for spending the time to make this lovely note (instead of spending the precious newly wed time with Stephen)!
