DIY Wedding Hair and Makeup Ideas During Coronavirus Pandemic

DIY Wedding Hair and Makeup Ideas During Coronavirus Pandemic

Hiring a professional hairstylist and makeup artist are very common for weddings. Unfortunately, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, you are most likely going to have to do your hair and makeup by yourself. Don’t panic! The wedding professionals at our South Florida country club are here to share DIY wedding hair and makeup trends.  

 

Easy Wedding Hairstyles

These easy wedding hairstyles can be completed with just a few tools and minutes of your time.

 

1.      Soft Waves

For this look, simply take any size hair curler and section off your hair. Take small pieces of your hair and wrap it around the curler. Hold the hair wrapped around the curler for 7-12 seconds. Make sure you leave about an inch of the ends out to create the soft waves. You can either curl your entire head or just do a few sections for an effortless look. Once the curls have set for a few minutes, brush them out with your fingers, add a texturizing spray, and lock them in with hairspray.

 

2.      Sleek and Straight

Who says you can’t wear your hair straight for your wedding? The sleek, straight look is very in this year, and it’s effortless to accomplish during the COVID-19 pandemic. First and foremost, for this look, you have to wash your hair so it’s clean, soft, and manageable. Once it’s washed, either blowdry it or let it air dry and then apply a heat protection spray. Set the flat iron to the appropriate temperature for your hair type, apply the flat iron to small sections of hair, and pull down along the 1” – 2” strand. If it’s not completely smooth the first time, pull the flat iron through again. To tame your flyaways, you can use styling products to maximize the sleek wedding hairstyle.

 

3.      Add Accessories

The easiest way to spice up your wedding hair is by adding accessories. You can use beautiful headbands to tame your hair but also to add something special to your look. Choose a white, bedazzled headband for an elegant look. For a bohemian style, add flowers to your hair or even a floral crown. With the extra time on your hands due to the coronavirus crisis, create your own flower crown for your wedding hair.

 

Simple Makeup Looks

The best place to get inspiration for your wedding makeup is on YouTube. Follow the step by step tutorials from makeup gurus and complete your DIY wedding makeup during the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

1.      Barely There – Natural Look

The minimalist wedding makeup has been a massive trend for the 2020 season. Celebrities like Meghan Markle have chosen to go the natural route when it comes to their big day. Achieve the barely-there, natural look by feathering your brows, enhancing the flush in your cheeks, and adding a nude lip. You can also add a hint of sparkle to your eyes and cheekbones to enhance your natural features.  

 

2.      Full Glam

Completing the full glam wedding makeup is going to take time and practice. Gather your desired makeup, and follow along to makeup gurus like Jaclyn Hill, Desi Perkins, NikkieTutorials and Alissa Ashley. Pack on the glitter, smoke out your lashes, contour your cheekbones, add a bold lip, and get ready to marry the love of your life.

 

The Deer Creek wedding venue is here to help you with any assistance regarding your upcoming event. While doing your own wedding hair and makeup isn’t what you expect, you are still going to look absolutely stunning on your big day.

Super Glue/Clear Nail Polish

Have a run in your nylons and tights? Include a clear nail polish in your wedding day emergency kit to spread a quick coat over the tear to prevent them from running any further. For broken jewelry or shoes, have super glue on hand to fix any defective accessories.

 

Makeup

Sewing Kit

Among the hustle and bustle of getting ready for your wedding day, you or your bridesmaids may have snags, tears, or loose threads in your dresses. The best remedy for this is a sewing kit. This will make surviving your wedding day that much easier as everything seems to move so fast.

You won’t have to put in much effort in wedding planning as all you have to do is pick three monochromatic colors and clean lines. As our South Florida country club is a neutral setting, this 2019 wedding trend won’t look out of place.

 

Back to Basics

While unconventional, edgy 2019 wedding trends are on the rise, there are still couples who would flock to the classic wedding theme, and there’s nothing wrong with that! The classic theme includes traditional design accents with a classic ballroom wedding reception area, an important wedding element that can be found at our country club.

Best Non-Traditional Vow Ceremonies

Best Non-Traditional Vow Ceremonies

Best Non-Traditional Vow Ceremonies

Nowadays, traditional wedding ceremonies are becoming more open to alternative options. More couples are steering away from traditional wedding vows, often finding that they are outdated, sexist, or too religious. The internet can provide numerous creative sources on the best non-traditional vow ceremonies suited to your tastes. We saved you the work by compiling some of the most popular non-traditional wedding ceremony scripts.

For the Harry Potter Fan

“Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.”

 

If you’re a Harry Potter fan, you’ll recognize these quotes from the Headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, and Severus Snape. Though these quotes were used in different contexts, reciting these words at the altar can still convey their emotions and elicit tears from the couple and their guests, making it a perfect non-traditional wedding ceremony script.

Another One for the Nerds

“I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone.” [2]

Familiar with J.R.R. Tolkein’s Lord of the Rings? Arwen, the Half-Eleven daughter of Elrond and Celebrian, confesses these words to Aragorn. A short, but perfect wedding vow can profess your endless love for your special someone, in front of the officiant at our South Florida golf course.

 

In It for the Long-Haul

“So, it’s not going to be easy. It’s going to be really hard. And we are going to have to work at this every day. But I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, and every day.” [3]

Everyone knows that marriage isn’t easy, and it takes a lot…A LOT…of work. However, if you’re willing to go through the ups and downs of marriage with your special someone, then Noah’s quote from The Notebook will be perfect for your non-traditional wedding ceremony script.

Our South Florida golf club makes for the perfect wedding venue of your dreams. Feel free to contact us to book our country club for your dream wedding.
