With Kimye’s extravagant Florentine wedding a distant memory and behind-the-scenes photos of John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s wedding surfacing, it’s hard not to be swept off our feet with summer wedding fever. And with our favourite A-listers happy to share pics on social media, it’s as if we were actually there (but not really). While the wedding dress usually gets all the attention (it is the most important dress a girl will ever wear), the makeup and hair plays just as much of a crucial part in the overall look. With wedding season in full swing, what better way to inspire your upcoming (or future) wedding than looking to the people who do it best? From bohemian styles to full-on glam, we round up our 10 favourite celebrity wedding beauty looks.
A done-up face seems to be the obvious way to go for most celebs. However, it seems like many of the star brides gravitate towards a more natural and bohemian-style approach when it comes to their wedding day. Both Poppy Delevingne and Kate Moss flaunted their good genes on their special days, wearing their hair down in beachy waves and opting for minimal makeup that just accentuated their natural beauty. Keira Knightley also went carefree on the day of her wedding, taking the no-fuss look to a whole new level with a simple floral crown on her tousled hair and possibly sans makeup underneath those chic black shades to match her recycled Chanel dress.
Though bohemian wedding looks seem to be a celebrity trend, that doesn’t mean there aren’t some celebs who prefer to go super-glam for the day. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend recently graced the cover of Martha Stewart Wedding, giving everyone the exclusive inside their Lake Como, Italian wedding. Going with the glam approach, the model complemented her extravagant Vera Wang wedding dress with gorgeous makeup and an elaborate braided updo. But if we were to name our favourite wedding look of all-time, it would have be our favourite princess duchess, Kate Middleton (who did her own makeup!), because let’s be real here, no one does effortless glam better than her.
A braided updo, soft eye makeup and glossy neutral lips complemented Chrissy Teigen’s extravagant Vera Wang wedding dress.
