Total brain fart, but Mexsalon hell I can't remember the name.. But their located in San Jose and Maye uses them as her vendor, they got pretty good reviews. I had them booked until the Sheraton told me I can't have an outside person do my makeup so I had to change it.

I usually wear Clinque, and the makeup at Mac seems better. Plus I like that they don't animal test and if you bring back 6 empty makeup container they give you a free lip gloss, so it's nice to hear they recycle. :-)

the only thing that felt heavy on my face was the mascara. But I think it was just because I don't ususally wear water proof and it was weird having someone else put it on. It looked heavier on me in some spots, but I think that's because she did it so that it show's up better in pics (well would show up better in pics by a professional and in good light ;-)

never mind,,

Are those all the PV brides?

Hmmm I think you can still rent a car, you just may have to pay extra.

OMG, everything... LOL Foundation concealer Mascara Bronzer Eye liner 3 - Eye shadows Blush Powder (it's called something else but it sets your makeup) eye shadow brush Lip liner Lip Gloss I can't remember what else, I'm sure I forgot something.

Ann you should make a list of everyone getting married in the next month or so.. :-) We have SO many brides coming up, I can't even keep track of it anymore.

I just seen you posted in the FA thread, great pictures, you look amazing and it looks like everything turned out great. Congrats..

Great pictures.. Congrats on your wedding.

Great job, I know it's hard to stay focused when your goal weight is far off, but you are doing great and in no time you'll be there.

Thanks, yeah she wrote everything down in steps and made a picture for me. I did a little bit of it this morning, I don't really have time in the mornings to play around with makeup, but can tell I need to work more on the blending of the shadow. I'm going to give it a full go on Saturday. I just hope I can do it. It looks simple but she used a ton of different stuff.

Thanks Sarah, I'll see if Maye can do the same.

Makeup = $220.00, and I didn't get everything.. I'm having my hair done next week and a trial at that time with them that way I can show them exactly what I want. As of right now I have I hair and makeup trial and appointment set for cabo, it's 100.00 TOTAL FOR BOTH.. so based on that price and what I was quoted from other places that's where the "too good to be true" comes in play.

That why I have everything needed to do a touch up. Right now I have an appointment at the Sheraton for Hair and Makeup but after Sarah's post I'm a little worried because the price I was quoted is "too good to be true". Ya know

The pictures really don't show very well how it looks, plus the lighting in my house isn't that great, but I only have eyeliner on the top lid and eye shadow on the bottom, I have like 3 different eye shadows on, and a ton of other stuff. I have my bachelor/bachelorette party this weekend so I'm going to try to recreate it for that.

So I went to the Mac counter today after work and had a trial done, For the most part I really like it, the pic aren't that great, but let me know what you think. Cain really liked it until he found out how much I spent on the makeup. lol

Maye just sent this to me.. "This morning I was informed that the law requires now the blood test are mandatory." Before she was able to use just our blood type. Just wanted you girls to know

Glenda, you posted that you have several weddings over the next couple of months to attend. Ummmm is one of those weddings mine? Cause I thought you said you were the BDW wedding crasher.. :-)

Carla, What is done is done. I may have talked to you privately about your dogs but I don't save those type of emails, my email systems are over loaded right now with wedding crap, anything non-wedding related is deleted after I read it and respond. Again, this review was done, you resonded. We both voiced our sides and now we move past it. Their is no need to drag this on longer. I think you are a nice person, I think you have added alot to the forum and I think people enjoy seeing you post. I don't think you handled this situation the best you could have, but you say it's resolved now so that's all that matters in the end.

Carla you never gave me your direct contact information, that is why I only sent you a PM. All I wanted was to know the status of what was going on, and since you logged onto the forum and didn't get back with me, it made me feel you were ignoring me. I can't imagine you would keep your brides in limbo for a couple of weeks without at least letting them know your still working on it. It's just good business. What is done is done, the first email about the cancelation was back on 4/18 and now it's about a month later and I just got an email from you this week saying the reservation is now still in place. One month had gone by Carla, to a bride that is getting married in a few short weeks thats a l-o-n-g time.

Poor Glenda.. Hmmm don't forget to think about Tag watches too.. lol

Happy Birthday. It's your day, and I hope you are treated like a princess.

Carla, I did try to handle this between just the two of us, but when you don't respond to my emails for a couple of weeks, yet you still log onto the forum, what do you expect me to think? I have tried a couple times to contact you via PM, and finally when I do get an email back, all of a sudden the reservation is still on (after you told me it was canceled) so I try to email you back asking a few more questions and come to find out your mail box is full and I can't send it to you. I mentioned above that you said you were sick, yet in the two weeks that I didn't hear from you, you still managed to log onto the forum yet not respond to me. I also had my MIL (who is in the corporate travel business) run the reservation number you sent me, (since I didn't hear back from you) she said it wasn't in Payless database. What was I suppose to think? Here I 'am thinking I had a reservation because I never once said I wanted to cancel it, I email you and don't get a response and then I find out the number you gave me isn't in their system. You do represent a company, regardless if your my wedding coordinator or not. When you offer something you put you and the company you work for under the light, if things go well, you have been around the forum long enough to know that good reviews are worth allot and your company "could" get more business from it. BUT you also run the risk of something going bad and a bad review being written. I was very fair in the review I posted, everyone knew all the facts that was given and I even posted that another bride had good luck with the company you work for. If future brides choose to hire the company you work for they may never run into any problems but this forum was put in place to HELP ease the stress us brides are under. IMO you may have had good intentions in the beginning, but I felt you threw me on the back burner once that person left the company and all you said was "I will check" and I don't hear back from you for another couple weeks, At that point my wedding was about a month away, I'm not the type of person to wait until the last minute to handle stuff, hence the reason I booked this car rental several months ago. Regardless if your sick or busy, if you say you will get back with them, you get back with them, in a timely fashion. It only takes a second to contact someone to say your still working on it. Would that have been too much to ask?

Hey Sarah, aren't you suppose to be enjoying your vacation right now? :-)
