This episode is Part 1 of my 2-Part Desti Beauty Chat with Ivory Perkins, who I brought along to Mexico with me to do my makeup and hair for my destination wedding weekend. In Episode 3, we chatted BEFORE my wedding, and then, of course, I got married and we ended up with plenty more to share, so this is our conversation that we had AFTER everything.
It’s a rundown of as much as we could remember and re-live and there are some gems in there for sure for you.
In this episode, we talked about:
· What you should look for and warning signs when interviewing your Desti Beauty Pro for hair + makeup for your destination wedding
· What to do if you can’t bring a professional makeup artist or hairstylist with you to your wedding destination
· Day-of tips for your destination wedding + how to channel your energy
· And more!
