“Hi Carly, I’m Carlie. It’s nice to meet you” We both laughed. It wasnt until we met that I realized we couldn’t be more opposite in our looks. She was tiny and petite with long, straight dark brown hair. And I’m, well, tall with wild natural blond curly hair. Then when we she told me her soon to be husbands name was also Ben, we knew it was meant to be for me to be her wedding day stylist.
The other Carly and Ben met in Miami and both have their families back in Illinois. They got married in Sherman Oaks and almost everyone was from out-of-town. For her hair, Carly wanted something very soft, back away from her face. We had originally done a loose looking bun during the trial and for the wedding day, decided to make it a little more on the side. She has extremely thick, long hair so I had my hands full. She had a small hair pin that I added to the side of the bun. For her makeup I used greys and taupes to accentuate her hazel eyes. Her lips were a beautiful raspberry color that really tied everything together. I don’t think I will even find another Carly and Ben, congrats to you both!
