Heather Smith

The Barns Hotel, Cannock

6/3/2015

I turned up at the Barns Hotel a little early on the morning of Heather's wedding. I was so excited to meet the rest of her bridal party as we had such a good laugh on the trial. Heather's family were lovely. 

I started to do the makeup of Heather's mom who was very excited as the rest of the Bridal party was having their hair styled at Francesco's Hair salon in Cannock.  We went quite natural with the makeup as she's a natural beauty anyway and doesn't need that much. 

It was the brides turn in the chair which was a good opportunity for Heather to relax a little bit. Like her mom, Heather doesn't wear much makeup but did want a glamorous bridal look. To go with her theme of the wedding which was pastel pink vintage style. So I followed on with this theme of makeup for each of the bridesmaids. 

Heather and Mat met 9 years ago when Heather was working in a pub in great Wyrley.

Mat proposed by the lake at the end of a lovely break at Center parcs. 

They have 2 beautiful girls Amelia and Scarlett who are both flower girls. 

Heather had 3 bridesmaids, her sister Hayley and 2 good friends Terri and Helen and 4 flower girls; heathers 2 daughters and 2 nieces who are 7 and 4.The flower girls were so good on the morning of the wedding and enjoyed watching CBeebies from the comfort of the massive bridal bed. 

The morning went nice and relaxed till the last hour when it was time to get the dresses on.  Heathers Wedding dress was from Katie's brides in Heath Hayes and the designer is Kay Mason, the bridesmaids dresses were from BHS. 

The bridal party was all dressed and almost ready to go so I left them for a few minutes to give them some quality quiet time before the mad rush out the door. 

I went downstairs to have a look at the reception room and it totally made me speechless. The room was stunning. It was so elegant and pretty the Barns reception room decor certainly fitted in with the theme. 

The flowers who were done by Carrie Lucas Flowers were breathtakingly beautiful. They were pastel colours all delicately arranged and just finished the vintage theme Heather wanted. 

Heather and Mathews cake was made by her talented friend which was also decorated with sugar crafted pastel flowers just like that of the real flowers. It was beautiful. 

I went back upstairs to report back to Heather how beautiful the room was and to touch up any makeup and lipstick required. 

Then the time came for Heather to get married. 

The owner of the Barns and his very sophisticated Bentley took Heather and her dad from the hotel reception to the front door of the Barns Hotel Entrance which is where I last saw Heather beaming from ear to ear. She looked so happy. 

It was such a lovely morning spending such precious time with Heather and her bridal party. Thankyou so much for booking me. And I look forward to seeing all the wedding photos. Congratulations to Heather and Mathew.
