Although our hair is now reversed-ha(her's long, mine short)... this weekend I had the honor and pleasure of working with my girl Margaret and oh boy, do we have a story to share. Now... trust me when I say- we have seen, heard, and experienced ALOT. I am kicking myself for not jotting down notes over the past 10 years. All of the funniest stories you can only imagine could make for a very funny book. I have been smacked on the rump by a MOB, chased high profile politicians down to have them camera ready in 10 seconds, and although it is a stunning location...can officially say I have been to "Meth" Mountain (long story there and NO there was absolutely NO drugs involved!)...
However, this story is for the "books" and I am so glad for 3 things...that the Soiree and their entire crew pulled this past Saturday off (they ROCK!), that my Bride was as calm and collected as it gets(AMEN), and that I had my partner in crime to witness and help come to the rescue!
Let me explain and you will forever have new appreciation for not only electricity, but air conditioning!
Somewhere, somebody apparently ran over or into 1 power line (yes, 1 line) and the entire John's Island was without power-yep, you heard me correctly. Kiawah, Seabrook, and beyond.
In July, during 115 degree weather...we were without power and AIR (while doing make up for 10 girls)!
We rallied and the Bride and her crew were fabulous! I would say they were calm, cool, and collected...but we will say calm and collected. They were sweet and looked so pretty. We kept things very natural and organic, which suited the Bride to a tee and of course used as many waterproof products as possible.
Kudos goes out to some hair artists who had to get real creative, real fast with bobbypins and hairspray.
A huge thank you goes out to all involved for pulling this one off! I am sure if we had a reality show, this one would have made the cut for sure!
Marg, all I can say is ROCK ON girlfriend!
