Vendor Spotlight | Simply Perfect Makeup Artists | Events by L | Illinois Wedding and Event Specialists

6 / 10 / 14

You spend months or more planning for your dream wedding day, you spend days and/or weeks planning for your soirees and events. What fun is it once the day gets here if you are not looking or feeling your best?

Simply Perfect Makeup

Since makeup plays such a vibrant role in making people look their best – which in turn helps you feel your best we wanted to introduce you to our friend Molly Krause, Lead Makeup Artist at Simply Perfect. She is one of their high end professional makeup artists serving Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin.

Molly Krause, Simply Perect Makeup
Meet Molly!

Hello, and welcome to the blog Molly! Please, tell our brides and clients a little bit about yourself and how you can help them out.

 

When I started Simply Perfect Makeup Artists, I wanted to create a team of highly trained artists that specialize in wedding day makeup. A team that understands what brides are looking for in their wedding day makeup, and how to best serve them! My artists and I all LOVE weddings, and we love being there to make everyone in the bridal party feel beautiful and confident; whether they are bridesmaids, mothers, or grandmothers. We are passionate about our work, and love making others feel happy.
Simply Perfect Makeup Our team travels to YOU. Picture your wedding day. You wake up and we show up. No stress, no traveling, no worries. We bring everything we need to you, each bridesmaid, mother, and grandmother gets out of our chairs looking gorgeous and photo-ready.

The Simply Perfect experience is so much more than when you get your makeup done at a makeup counter or salon. We don’t sell any products, only provide service. And customer service is what we are all about. We have multiple artists available to you. Each of our artists arrive on time, ready to work. We bring makeup chairs, lights, and usually an assistant to keep things moving quickly and to be an extra set of hands for you and your bridal party.

Wedding Day Photo, makeup via Simply Perfect Makeup Your makeup  has to look good across four mediums. You have to look good on camera, on video, on Iphones and other smartphones, and most importantly, in person. With today’s HD technology, this is SO important. You hired a professional photographer, having professional makeup is a MUST. Pictures are one of the only things left over after your wedding, don’t you want to look back and see yourself flawless, gorgeous, and as your best self?

Lets talk value for a minute. As in all industries, there is a price range involved in makeup services. Our prices are determined by the value of what we provide. I encourage you to think twice before making a decision based solely on price. Does the artist have a portfolio of beautiful, professional images? How much makeup-specific training and experience do they have? Are they easy to contact? Do they do business professionally, with a contract that protect both the artist AND you? Do they offer previews to ensure they can provide what you are looking for? Do they have good reviews online? Do they come recommended by other wedding vendors? What do they provide beyond just the makeup? Do they have multiple artists available to accommodate any size party?

Wedding Day MakeupMy company has all of these questions covered. You get what you pay for and more, I personally guarantee it.

Thanks so much for being with us today Molly!

If you have any questions for Molly, would like to secure Simply Perfect services, or want to check out the gallery you can visit us at www.SimplyPerfectMakeup.com, on facebook at www.facebook.com/SimplyPerfectMakeup, or contact Molly directly at molly@SimplyPerfectMakeup.com.

A Bride’s Guide – Most Important Wedding Day Tasks (Part 2) Plus Free Printable Checklist | Events by L | Illinois Wedding and Event Planning Specialists

6 / 3 / 14

A bride's Guide Part 2 For Illinois Brides and Grooms

Today we conclude our checklist with Part 2 of our Bride’s Guide’s Most Important Wedding Day tasks for all of you soon to be Bride’s and Groom’s in Illinois and beyond.

We put together this list based on knowing the importance each of these wedding day tasks weigh on your wedding day and how they can easily be over looked.  As promised we have also included a free printable checklist for you to download and print out at the end so you don’t miss a beat and to help your wedding day have a seamless flow.

Events by L's Bride's Guide Wedding Day Checklist Guest Book – At your rehearsal determine who will set this up, where it will be set up, and please be sure to have a pen with the book.

Gift Table – You will want to have a person in charge of collecting your cards and gifts. If you are leaving for your honeymoon following your wedding day let the person in charge know where to drop them off at or when you will be back to pick them up. Even if you state gifts are not needed someone will usually still bring a gift or card for you so have this in mind so you are not stuck boarding any items on your way to Bora Bora.

Events by L Wedding Day Guest BookHerd guests – If you are having a bubble blowing grand exit, sparklers, or any other fun additions that your guests will be involved in, be prepared. So you have all of the bubbles or sparklers ready at the church. Terrific, but they just might get left behind unless you have your ushers and/or hostesses informing guests as they enter as to what is going to happen next.

Make a note of it on your programs so no one is left out of the loop. Designate several people to herd your guests throughout the day or there is a great chance that you will veer off schedule, run overtime, and miss out on certain events that you were wanting photographed on your Big Day.

Wedding Vendor Love from Events by L Vendor Tips – Since your vendors are contracted for a certain amount of hours during your event it is a good idea to designate someone to distribute their vendor tips during the event. Chances are this person will not have dissected each and every contract like Events by L does so they will not have the scheduled times for vendors engraved in their heads.

Pick a time where you know all of the vendors will still be there and no one will be missed. It could be at the beginning of the reception, or after the meal is served, whatever works best for your itinerary. These vendors work extremely hard for their bride and grooms and it means a lot to be shown appreciation for all of their hard work and dedication so don’t forget to tip them.

Events by L, Wedding PlannersNow for the Bride and Groom, listen up! Sit back, try to take as many pauses as you can and mental pictures throughout the day. Just let everything fall into place and allow it to soak in. It will all be over before you know it.
