Some weddings are unforgettable, and Jazz’s wedding is one of them. Why do I say this? Simply because of how deeply it reflected her individuality and creativity. Imagine this: taupe wedding dress, Lego flower bouquet and a stunning backyard wedding. And let’s not forget her bold bridal makeup: purple smoky eyes that brought her look to life.
Let’s talk about the details of this unique celebration, starting with the beautiful look we created together.

As a makeup artist, it’s always exciting when brides step outside of the box.
While she normally doesn’t wear makeup, her wedding day was the perfect moment to embrace something unique. This is what made her bridal makeup special. We wanted her makeup to complement her taupe-colored dress while showcasing her style. Thus, we used a blend of rich purples and softer lilac tones for smokey eyes, adding a touch of sophistication without overwhelming her natural beauty. Even though smokey eyes can feel dramatic, we balanced the look with natural skin and subtle lips to keep everything cohesive. We made any necessary adjustments during her makeup trial, so she felt confident and beautiful while stepping into unfamiliar territory, resulting in a piece of mind on the wedding day.
Seeing her smiling when she looked in the mirror was priceless. Her makeup blended perfectly with the energy of her unique wedding day.
While most brides opt for white or off white dresses, my bride Jazz’s taupe wedding gown was different and perfectly paired with her non-traditional wedding details.
Taupe is such a versatile color. It not only added warmth and modernity to her look, but also allowed the other elements of her wedding (like her bold makeup and unique Lego bouquet) to stand out beautifully. Yes, you read that right: the bride’s flowers were made entirely out of Lego pieces! The bouquet featured colorful, interlocking pieces arranged beautifully, showing that weddings are not about following rules, but about reflecting you.

Rather than opting for a venue, my beautiful bride chose the warmth and intimacy of her parents’ backyard. There’s something special about hosting one of the most important days of your life in a place filled with family memories and joy. The backyard setup created a cozy, laid-back atmosphere, allowing her unique details to shine even brighter.
This wedding proved that there is no standard when it comes to beauty and style. From her taupe-colored dress to her bold purple makeup, Lego flowers, and intimate backyard ceremony, every detail was a reflection of who she is – not just as a bride, but as a person.
As a makeup artist, it was such a joy to be part of this day. Thank you for trusting Makeup By Diana! Wishing you a life full of happiness, laughter, and beautiful memories!
