Our "this is it" Hair and Make Up Artist: Edz Plotnikov

Happiness! After two months of looking for hair and make up artist and three trials, we finally found our "this is it" hair and make artist in the name of Edz Plotnikov!

I can say that finding the perfect make up artist is one of the most hardest thing in our wedding preparations so far. It's been two months since I started scouting for different make up artists: I have inquired and reviewed portfolios of more than twenty HMUAs and have attended three trial make ups. 

Honestly,  a little of my self confidence have been affected after the first two trial make up. I wanted to be pretty on the wedding day for myself and of course for my soon to be ex-bf. His commendations on the previous trials we have attended is not yet enough to convince me on booking the previous make up artists. I hope you don't get me wrong, the previous make up artists were both nice and have great portfolios worth boasting for but maybe they were not just the perfect one for me.

It's true that you have to be patient when you want something because in God's perfect timing it will be given to you. :) The soon to be ex-bf have given me a timeline to finish searching for HMUA last June. I feel pressured and can not move on to other items in our wedding checklists. I have spent couple of weekends searching and reviewing different portfolios and rates of hair and make artists. It's not enough that the portfolios are great, I have to consider if the rates is within the budget and if the location of the artist is not too far from Marikina.

I love the make up of  Edz Plotnikov, fresh and radiant look perfect for the bride. Her hands were gentle in applying make up and is also hygienic. Bonus point!? She is not the only who is sweet but her hairstylist Toni and assistant Damian as well. Oh how I love Toni, he made eight to nine styles on my hair:

 

God is good all the time. He did not give me my HMUA during the months of May and June because He want me to wait for the perfect HMUA with an on going promo of 20% discount this July. 

Credits to my soon to be ex-bf for being patient and accompanying me on all the trial make ups. :)

Happiness! Happy preps!
