I love Makeup is running a competition for Gauteng brides getting married between September and November of this year. They are giving 3 lucky brides-to-be, one for each month, free makovers for the bride and two additional faces on the wedding day, excluding the trial and travelling costs. The package is worth R900 each.

To stand a chance to win, brides must visit their website I love Makeup, and answer this simple question: At which Make-Up school did Farhana qualify in Advanced Make-Up Artistry?

The answer along with the brides contact details, including the wedding date, must be emailed to info@ilovemakeup.co.za before 1 September 2008. Three winners will randomly be chosen, one for each month. Ts & Cs apply and the competition is only open to brides getting married in Johannesburg.

Good Luck Ladies!!!

No, seriously it’s not joke…I just got an email from Yvette De Beer, a talented, new and upcoming wedding photographer who is building her portfolio and is willing to photograph your wedding for FREE!  If you are getting married in August, September or October 2008 you may just qualify for this amazing prize.

Yvette will cover your wedding for six hours and provide you with at least 160 quality images.  These images will all be supplied on compact disk (no prints included, but you can choose to purchase the prints from her). The photos will be a combination of the Bridal Preparations, Photos of the Bride and Groom, Family pics, Ceremony and Reception snap shots, giving you some great memories.

Sounding good?  If you want Yvette to snap your wedding,  you must be prepared to cover Yvette’s travelling/ accommodation costs if need be.  She is based in Cape Town, but is willing to shoot your wedding anywhere, provided that the above mentioned is covered.  That’s a small price to pay when you take into consideration the fees of wedding photographers.  You must also be willing to grant Yvette permission to use your portfolio for marketing and PR purposes.- Pretty fair, huh?
