Sharon was so sweet and looked like an Asian magazine model.  She wanted something very bling and dramatic!  We also did Ash Kumar glitter on her hands to accent her mendhi – wow she looked beautiful.

This is Selvi with her reception look- we did more natural makeup since Selvi hardly wears makeup.  For her hair we did nice curls with her hair half up on the side with flowers that we got from the garland that Deepka gave her during their wedding cermony…made everything come together :)
