Your wedding day is one of the most photographed days of your life — and your makeup should make you feel beautiful, confident, and unmistakably you. That’s why Wed Society El Paso sat down with Elyse Simons Beauty to hear why bridal makeup previews are an absolute game-changer.
Think of a bridal preview as your personal beauty dress rehearsal — the VIP backstage pass to your wedding-day glow. It’s a one-on-one session where Elyse designs, tests, and perfects your bridal look before the big day, making sure every detail is just right… maybe even better than you imagined ✨

💄 Behind the Magic: What Happens at a Bridal Preview
Here’s the fun part: Elyse starts by chatting about your vision — your dress, venue, color palette, and exactly how you want to feel strutting down the aisle. Then the magic begins. She tests tones, textures, and finishes until your look is flawless, wearable, and unmistakably you.
Elyse also makes sure your makeup photographs beautifully and feels amazing on your skin — so on your wedding morning, the only thing you have to worry about is stealing the spotlight.
One bride shared her experience:
“During the trial session, Elyse made sure I was happy with the colors and style. She even uses a sketch to track the shades you love, making it easy to replicate the look on your wedding day — which is pretty cool! I also had some breakouts and acne marks that day, and she worked wonders erasing everything. It was such a relief!”
✨ Why It’s a Game-Changer
Bridal previews are more than “just a trial.” They’re the secret to a flawless, stress-free wedding day. Elyse says they allow brides to:
-
Customize makeup for their skin type, lighting, and photography
-
Adjust tones or textures for comfort
-
Create a detailed bridal plan so the wedding-day look is effortless — and exactly what they loved at the preview
It’s the ultimate chance to try, tweak, and trust the final look — so you feel 100% confident and radiant when it matters most.
Another happy bride said it best:
“Elyse was absolutely amazing!! I did both my trial and bridal makeup with her and I’ve never felt so beautiful! The airbrush makeup lasted all day and looked fresh at the end of the night. She tailored all makeup looks to each of my bridesmaids and everyone looked stunning! I highly recommend Elyse for all makeup needs; she is truly a miracle worker!”

📸 See the Difference
Elyse always snaps before-and-after photos during the preview — because sometimes the tiniest tweak makes the biggest impact. Then, on the big day, she makes subtle adjustments to ensure your look is absolutely flawless.
One of Elyse’s brides raved:
“Elyse went above and beyond! We did a bridal preview a couple weeks ago, and it left me confident knowing that no matter the condition of my skin on the big day, my makeup would still look great! The makeup lasted all day and didn’t budge through tears and late summer heat.”
Brides in El Paso, TX, and Las Cruces, NM, walk away glowing, confident, and radiant — perfectly themselves, only dialed up for the spotlight.
