The Powder Room’s Wedding Hair & make up Showcase
Saturday, February 13th, 2010
Helloo Ladies, I wanted to tell you all about our very 1st Wedding hair and make up showcase, what a lovely intimate night, 15 brides and their friends came along on Tuesday 2nd Feb at our studio in Boutique Bridal studio in New Farm. A glass of champagne or punch and a piece of desert cake is just what you need after a bit day at work! Our event was featured in the latest “Village News” paper, check it out to see if your picture is in the social pages…
Natalie from Perfect Potion started the evening, chatting about how to look after yourself in the lead up to the big day, how to avoid those pesky pimples and how to stay calm and relaxed.
It’s such a new experience planning your Wedding day and our evening was filled with lots of little tips to help you along the way. Sarah demonstrated airbrushed make up on our lovely model and we started with a softer more natural looking make up and then built it up to a smokier look for the evening. Karen created a very red carpet boudoir down hairstyle with soft finger waves on the face, then transformed the hair to one side into a low chignon.
The hair was accessorised with a beautiful hair piece from “House of Windsor” and our model was dressed in a beautiful dress for “Bridal on James” new collection for 2010.
Guest Wedding suppliers included “House of Windsor“, “Bridal on James“, “Perfect Potion” and “The Welsh Lady Cakes” . Each bride received a bag of little pressies including a pair of flexi flats, perfect size to pop in your hand bag. 
Sue from The House of Windsor brought along the punch and it was such a hit that we wanted to share the recipe with you…..
Fruit Punch – Iris Collins
1 Bottle Golden Circle orange Crush Cordial (750mls)
1/2 Bottle Golden Circle Lemon Crush Cordial
1 450g Can Orange Juice
850 ml Pineapple & Orange Juice
Mix all the ingredients together and then freeze – it’s better to use small plastic containers as it then easier to make up in smaller quantities (in a jug instead of a large punch bowl). Generally it’s better to microwave the base to free it up.
Add bottles Lemonade/Gingerale (Schweppes is better as others are too sweet) Mix half/half for a start. adjust accordingly to taste.
We look forward to seeing you at our next Bridal Showcase, in March, date to be advised!

Just wanted to say a big thank you for the beautiful work Brooke did on my hair for my wedding day and all her hard work!! :) Everybody's hair (especially my own) was perfect and exactly what I was looking for. Brooke was amazing and made everything so easy and stress free right from the first consultation right up to the big day. Everybody I had contact with at the Powder Room was extremely helpful and professional and I would not hesitate to recommend your services. Thank you once again.
Hello lovely Powder Room girls,I had the pleasure of having the Powder Room girls do the all hair and makeup for my wedding on Saturday 29th October. I just wanted to say the biggest thank you to the girls for everything they did to make me, my mum and my bridal party so beautiful on my wedding day. The girls were so lovely to work with and made us all feel and look amazing! I cannot thank them enough for their work, it was absolutely perfect! I had a 9am wedding which meant the girls started at 3am, what commitment! I couldn't have asked for anything better. I wish every bride would use the Powder Room on their wedding day. With lots of love and many thanks xx
