My first bride for Hairbyjb.com!

I've heard nothing but fabulous things about weddings held at the Lake Mary Events Center, and I had the joy of styling my first bride for Hairbyjb.com there!

When I met Kari for her trial run, I instantly enjoyed being around her. She is super friendly and we shared stories about wedding planning. Oh, and did I mention she's gorgeous?! Kari is blessed with enough beautiful curly hair for about 8 people. I was very excited to see the styles of Carrie Underwood that she brought as a guide. The style she chose was almost to glamorous for words! After we met that day, I floated on a cloud for the rest of the afternoon. I knew that my first official bride was going to be stunning!

Anyone who knows me knows that I am always crazy on time. So, I'm kind of ashamed to say that I was an hour and fifteen minutes early...obnoxious, I know. (I got there even before the people who set up for the wedding and reception! Ha!) After Kari arrived I got all my irons hot and ready to make some magic. Kari had all of her girls arrive later in the day so she could take some time to prepare for the day. It was nothing but excitement and tranquility as I styled her hair. She wrote her little sweet note to her soon to be hubby Nick and I styled away!

When I finished her hair, I asked her to give her head a good shake to make sure that her do could last through the party on the dance floor. After a little tweaking and lots of Paul Mitchell Extra Body Hair Spray I let her take a look at the hair style she would be wearing when she said I do. She looked in the mirror and said "I love it! I've never liked any of the Up-do's I've had, and I love this!" Ah…. The words I love to hear.

I can't even begin to tell you how happy I felt as I got in my car with a since of accomplishment and complete joy in my heart. I am able to do what I love and give brides a hair style that makes them feel confident and beautiful as they live one of the best days of their lives.

Kari, thanks so much for making my first website wedding better than I dreamed. I’m honored to have been a part of your special day!
