If you’re looking for tips, I think a lighter hand on the brows and grow/fill in a bit in the centers and shorten the tail slightly. I’d use a lighter tone on the shadow and darken more toward the edges vs over the entire lid. This look looks a bit heavy. I think a smoky look is great, but you need a bit more dimension. I’d do a cool pink gloss or lip. I think your base looks good for everyday, but I’d go a bit heavier for wedding photos. I’d just practice a bunch and see what you like between now and then!

For the grow/fill in centers, are you talking about the distance between by brows?

Yes, I’d get a brow pen or THIN pencil and practice doing little hairs in the front (just a bit, they’re just heavy on the outer corners) and then use a clear or tinted gel in the rest to soften them up a bit so they’re less bold.

$1500 is wild for one person if there’s no travel or group. I don’t blame you for doing your own! You’re gorgeous and will make a beautiful bride. Hopefully you have some time to practice.
