Beautiful Things in 2021


See ya 2021! As we look back this past year, there is so much to be thankful for! As a person and a business owner, I focus on all the good things and tend to be annoyingly upbeat and positive when there is so much that isn't so great.


Our team took part in over 275 weddings, galas, photoshoots, shows, trials, and pamper sessions! We are blessed beyond measure! Currently booking in 2023 and even 2024, we are excited about the opportunities that await, the friends we will meet, and the beauties we will celebrate with! We are so very thankful and proud of the relationships we have built with our vendors, friendors, our clients, and each other.


Collaborations


We had the opportunity to continue our collaboration with Our Dream Wedding Expo for West Palm Beach Bridal Events this past year and look forward to working with these fine folks into 2022. If you're a bride planning your dream wedding, check out the next show on January 16 at the West Palm Beach Marriott. Score your complimentary tickets to the show here. Don't forget to mention you received this offer from Beauty by Creative at Heart! We'd love to see you there!



We were featured several times and continued our relationship with Stefany Alongo at Married in Palm Beach including collaborating for a couple of styled photoshoots at The Canopy and Hyatt Place West Palm Beach in beautiful downtown West Palm Beach.

We celebrated one of our biggest honors - being named Best of the Palm Beaches for 2021 - something we are very proud to be!

Thank you 2020! A Look Back...

Updated: Aug 27, 2021


2020! What a ride! Many of us have had our share of challenges and faced things we never thought we'd have to this past year. Joblessness, financial strains, illness, loss, fear, anger, frustration. Yes, the year was full of ups and downs and every emotion possible. But we made it! We got through and we got through stronger and better!


This was an especially challenging year for the event industry - namely, our brides. Weddings were rescheduled or cancelled and left our beauties scrambling to make alternative plans for their happily ever after. As a superior customer service team, all of us at BCH were sensitive to the needs {and emotions} of our brides and were understanding and flexible with their needs.


Donning our masks, continuing {and increasing} our sanitary practices, and being super diligent with hand sanitizer to the point our hands might crack, we styled and glammed our brides and their tribes with the same enthusiasm and passion you've come to expect from our team. We brushed up on our patience skills and learned how to truly be flexible.

We learned the importance of family and time well spent, as well as taking better care of ourselves to stay ahead of the curve.


Despite the challenges, we have much to be thankful for. Although the spring season was a wash when it came to weddings and events, our team still pampered beauties for over 130 weddings and events! Thank you for allowing us to share your day and celebrate with you! With many talented teams to choose from, it is truly an honor to have been given the opportunity!


Many of our brides celebrated their nuptials despite changes with a micro wedding with family and their closest friends. They were resilient and decided that despite the restrictions and craziness surrounding them, they would "get married anyway" and we celebrated with them!


Collaborations

We had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the industries finest professionals, including a collaboration with Our Dream Wedding Expo for West Palm Beach Bridal Events in 2020 & those in 2021 - we hope to see you there! We have the honor of pampering some mommas-to-be and brand new mommas through a partnership with Aimee Nelson Photography. Our team worked with many other amazing vendors and friendors for photoshoots, events and just plain fun, including:

The Frontline Giveaway - Giving back to local couples for their service on the frontlines of the pandemic, Ashley and Zack were selected as the winners for the wedding of their dreams. The incredible vendors that made this possible by donating their time and energy included:

Even more to celebrate, our team booked 44 weddings and events for 2021 with many more on the horizon for 2021 and 2022. Yessss, we are excited for the new year and the new and exciting things we have planned.


Most especially, brides, party-goers, friends, friendors and future clients, we look forward to sharing your precious moments! Cheers to you!


2020 - thanks for everything! Happy New Year!

Preparing for Your Day-of Beauty & Why It's Important


Your wedding is definitely a day you want to look your best. Let's face it - you are the center of attention, you are the heart of most photos and snap shots and you and your party will be memorialized in professional photos for years to come. Day-of beauty starts long before the day you tie the knot. Check out our "Guide to your Day-of Beauty", here for more tips.


A hair and makeup trial is an important step to ensure you get the look you've dreamed of for your wedding day. Your artists will work with you to achieve the perfect look and will make recommendations to give you the result you're looking for. You want to look your absolute best and things like improving your skin or growing out your hair take time!


The day of your wedding is scheduled nearly down to the moment you wake up. Everyone, including your hair and makeup team are on a schedule to be sure everything runs flawlessly and with as little stress as possible for you - our bride. While the entire pampering process is meant to be a good time creating memories and enjoying your bride tribe, it is often overlooked as being a time that must stick to a schedule. Small things that are overlooked can add precious moments to a {sometimes tight} schedule.


When planning the beauty services for your bridal party, it is imperative to include the additional services desired and take the advice of your artists for day-of prep and communicating this to those in your party is important. Even small things add time that may not be included in the schedule and can cause unnecessary stress. To help make the day go smooth, you and your bridal party are asked to arrive with a clean, moisturized face and unless a blow out is requested, everyone should have completely dry hair.


Your artists will have advised what, if any, product to add or elimate in preparation of your day-of beauty. For example, excess oils added to your locks may keep the frizzies down but will also inhibit curls with staying power; damp hair can add 15 minutes or more to the schedule when your designer has to add a blow dry to the style, extension application add an additional 20-30 minutes, lashes another 10-15 minutes. These services are available of course, but please let your artists know ahead of time.


Here is a quick guide to preparing for the day's beauty :

  • Thin hair: Wash, apply a volumizing mousse and dry hair the day before the wedding.

  • Frizzy hair: Wash the day before, apply a defrizzing product and sleep with your hair braided or wrapped.

  • Oily hair: Wash hair the morning of your wedding, dry completely and add an oil absorbing dry shampoo.

  • Curly hair: Some styles require that hair be straightened, adding time to the schedule, please advise us ahead of time if anyone in the party has curly hair and the style desired.

  • Thick hair: Wash and dry the day before. If hair is still damp in the morning, run a dryer through to ensure it is completely dry prior to sitting in the stylist's chair.

  • Face prep: Wash and moisturize your face the morning of your wedding. For extremely dry skin, add a moisturizing serum or beauty oil and let your skin drink it in.

  • Lips: Exfoliate lips with a sugar scrub or similar product or using a washcloth, apply lip balm or serum before bed. Reapply lip balm or serum in the morning.

Ultimately, your beauty team is here to help you look and feel your best. Never hesitate to speak with your artists if you have any questions or concerns. Until then, enjoy the little things and all the extra pampering you get when getting ready for your happily ever after!


Cheers to the best YOU you can be!
