Welcome to our blog! I always said we could write a book with our Beauty Entourage adventures so instead I decided to write a blog!

Every weekend is a different adventure whether it's our hillarious car trips or the stories of some really great people we meet along the way. Here is my place to share with everyone why we love what we do so much! Enjoy!

November 6th Weddings

My first wedding day blog! Yes, it is slowly winding down for our wedding season and although I had this idea to mentally and sometimes visually document our day with our brides to share our adventures on the road for 2011, I wanted to get a head start now. We still have some beautiful women left on the appointment books and we want to share a small piece of their day from our eyes!

I have to get the girls in the habit of taking pics but, if time doesn't allow or if were unable to do so for any reason then we will still share a piece of what we learned or loved about each of our clients. So here is our day on November 6th, 2010:

Team:
Marlem & Rachel
Hair Appts only

Bride: Clara
Clients: 5 booked, 1 added on for a total 6
Location:Middletown Inn

        More and more we hear about how succesful dating websites are. Clara had met her husband on E~Harmony. It sounds like they were a perfect match from the beginning and thought the same too! Clara shared her story on the many things that occured that proved they were always on the same page. Everything from giving each other the same exact cards for christmas to him trying to find her the right dress for a romantic evening and she happens to go with the same exact dress on he had in mind. I guess great minds think alike!  If you noticed earlier I described what we normally would say as soon to be husband at the time we are actually providing our services but Clara also was lucky enough to be a bride twice to the same man!They had a traditional chinese ceremony in China prior to their day we were apart of!!! So cool!

Clara's Beauty Entourage duo were scheduled to be there for 2  hours to have 5 girls completed and were able to finish them early enough to add on mom for services as well.

Congratulations Clara! 



Wedding #2
Team: Kayle
Hair Appts only

Bride: Annette
Clients: 2
Location: In our salon

Anette found us just about a month before her wedding! I am so happy we were able to accommodate her for her day. She had booked services for her and her daughter to come to the salon and get their hair done. She had shorter hair and wanted a full updo so Kayle opted to add in hair extensions to help with that. Anette came in before hand so we could get a perfect match and once we received the hair come back to do her hair trial. 

I was in the salon when Anette came in to get her hair done and I felt like she was a regular client coming in we've always known. She was so laid back and her and Kayle seemed to click very well and had alot to talk about.

Here are some pics from her trial









Wedding #3
Team: Ashley, Rachel, Iralis
Hair & Make Up services

Bride: Kerry
Clients: 9 for Hair & 6 for make up booked with one make up add on to make 7
Location: Avon Old Farms Inn

          I started my day off in the salon with a hilite appointment and then met with my team to head out for our wedding. We arrived at the Inn which we have been to many times before and as soon as we walked in we discovered the infamous MIRROR!!! ahhhhhh! lol  The ladies of Beauty Entourage are not fans of mirrors in front of clients. Not that we don't want you to see our work. We would love to show you when we are done. But, we have ALOT of tricks up our sleeves and sometimes as we are working those tricks look umm a tad crazy lol. We don't want you to get nervous or not have confidence in us while we are doing your hair because that intern makes us nervous when it's all just unnecessary worry :) We have actually trained to not rely on the mirror so sometimes what your seeing or nervous about we just haven't got to yet.  There are times were working on one section of your head and know about the random piece out of place on the other side but we work our way there and perfect sections at a time.

Although the mirror was a ginormous one lol we still rocked out some hair! Kerry and her bridal party were hillarious. I even had to ask Kerry to stop making me laugh for a second so I could actually pin her hair. These ladies knew how to have fun but at the same time were some classy chicks. We did a range of styles but all cohesive with the same theme..romantic and chic. from Classic waves with a modern loose braid (inspired by a catalogue picture) to Audrey Hepburn from Breakfast at Tiffany's. The bride originally had the idea of going with waves half up but, she later was inspired by one of my brides that recently got married to do the half up look with spiral curls instead and ditching the bangs. 

My favorite part of being apart of Kerry's wedding was when her soon to be husband sent her gifts to the room. He had gotten her a bag holder as an inside joke and after opening it she told us a story about a time he got her pink towels on a special occassion (can't remember which one.) So the next gift she opened was pink towels!! lol   But, to her surprise underneath it was a small box. I didn't get a chance to see what was in it (lots of people in the room and I was kinda working) But, I did see those tears from her and I know it was something good! These are the moments that seriously make me see and realize I am apart of someone's day they will remember forever.

I also learned from this group about electronic cigarettes! AHHAHHA...That is the weirdest thing I've ever heard of.  Iralis branched off and Rachel and I wrapped up and B lined it for the Apple Fritters we randomly saw on the side of the road. They were gross but, we were oh so excited!

Another day down and 3 brides that gave us the privledge to be apart of their special day! Thank you ladies and Congratulations. <3
