I need some help with my wedding makeup/hair!

Hi ladies, 

Getting married next month and going for a Rita Hayworth sort of look for the wedding.  I love red lipstick and wear it often and I really want to wear it at the wedding but I am worried that it is making me look washed out or weird or something.  I need some advice.  I would also consider doing a pinkish red (raspberry color) lipstick so long as it still has the boldness and vintage flair that the red brings.  And the hair is likely to be trimmed up a bit so that when curled it just grazes the shoulders.  Pass along your wisdom on these matters-I want to be sure I take a good photograph!

This was a test run on hair and makeup-will probably try to get more volume at the front than what is here.  Sorry the pic is huge.

First off, congratulations on your impending nuptials! :)

I'm no MUA (hopefully Micheline will be able to see this and pop in!) but I think the look you're going for is definitely in the right direction! For me I probably would go with slightly matte lips for a wedding but I'm not entirely sure if that would show up best in pictures. I LOVE your eyes!

Why thanks! I have thought about matte lip color (I like that a lot) but am wearing a long-wearing lipstick so that I don't kiss the red off onto my fiance and I kinda have to do a gloss over it or the lips get incredibly dry/cracked/ugly.    Still open to suggestions on this matter though.

Why thanks!  That is quite the compliment!  Much appreciated!

I love what you have going on! You might want to try using a white liner on your inner lids to help make your eyes pop in the photos. Try it out and see what you think.
