Wedding make-up masterclass

Goodies galore for Amazing Face bridal make-up masterclass

Award-winning bridal hair and make-up artist Caroline Swaffield of Amazing Face is expanding her services to include the ultimate luxury make-up lesson for one.

With the current increase in smaller more intimate weddings due to COVID restrictions, she's introducing special lessons at her studio in Poole, Dorset for brides wanting to do their own wedding make-up. At the end of the three-hour 'I've got this' session, they'll take home their own make-up brush set and all the products they've been taught to use in a bridal make-up bag ready to go on the big day.

"They'll be taught how to use all the items to pull off a gorgeous look and I will be available via video link on the day to help if needed," explains Caroline. The lessons are also available for anyone stuck in a rut who wants to learn how to update their make-up for a fresh new look.

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

Experts Warn Against Using AI for Wedding Vows

With peak wedding season approaching, experts are warning couples not to rely on AI to write one of the most personal parts of their big day – their vows. A survey by jewellers Queensmith has revealed that more than half (55%) of UK brides and grooms are now using AI tools to help write their wedding vows and speeches, raising questions about authenticity, originality and even potential legal grey areas. The findings come amid a growing debate around AI-written vows after a registrar in the eastern Netherlands saw a marriage called into question when AI was used to help write the ceremony script. In the case, the District Court of Overijssel ruled that "no marriage has been established" after it emerged the registrar had relied on ChatGPT to draft parts of the ceremony. The case has sparked wider concerns that AI-generated wording could unintentionally mirror existing vows or scripts found online, raising questions about originality and authenticity.
