\"Houston<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019re pretty sure you\u2019ve had your fill of Friday\u2019s royal wedding, so we won\u2019t add too much to the mix. Here\u2019s our take. The ceremony? Sweet and touching, just as any wedding should be\u2014this, despite the precise choreography and the zillions of dignitaries in attendance. The dress? We seriously adored it and thought it was perfectly fitting for both the setting and the woman wearing it (although we have an eensy bit of sympathy for those who thought the gown, by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, a bit austere).<\/p>\n

But you know what we really loved? How pretty and natural and unfussy bride Kate Middleton managed to look, there amidst the soaring columns and royal crests and acres of gilded and velvet-covered everything.<\/p>\n

Which, naturally, made us think of Heather Hughes, whose Hues by Heather<\/a> is responsible for many a Houston bride\u2019s picture-perfect, yet utterly natural-looking, wedding-day makeup. We asked Heather\u2014who, BTW, does tons of TV, film and print, along with bridal\u2014and she told us her brides want to look \u201cfresh\u2014not like they spent all day getting ready.\u201d Along with subtly smoky eyes and a hint of sparkle, she\u2019s giving brides loose, sexy updo\u2019s accented with headbands, feathers and flowers. \u201cIt\u2019s not about us coming in and \u2018painting their face.\u2019\u00a0We do want their fianc\u00e9 to recognize them when they walk down the aisle,\u201d Hughes says. And she wants brides to recognize their own loveliness when they reflect on their big day: \u201cWe want them to look back at their pictures 10 years from now and say, \u2018Wow!\u00a0 I was beautiful.\u2019 Not\u2026\u2019Oh yeah, I got married in \u201987!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Plus, besides being insanely talented professionals, Hues by Heather artists are so sweet and nurturing, they make brides feel comfortable, calm and happy while getting their bridal hair and makeup done–and that, more than anything, is the key to looking beautifully, naturally, on your wedding day!<\/p>\n
