The Search is on for the Fresh Face of Blush!
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
What is it about weddings that us ladies love so much?? For me I think it's that fairytale moment of finding that perfect wedding dress to marry your modern Prince Charming, and there is no better place to find the dress of your dreams than Blush bridal boutique, Lisburn Rd Belfast!
After a hugely successful campaign to find the Face of Blush for the past seven years, Blush bridal boutique has once again launched the competition to find a new face for its 2015 advertising campaign.
The luxury bridal boutique, situated on the stylish Lisburn Roadin Belfast, will commence its search for the 2015 ‘Face of Blush’ this month and will offer a host of prizes for the most blushing bride. Organisers are seeking a bride who represents the true character of the deluxe boutique and who will become the face of their 2015 advertising campaign.
Boutique owner Aileen Wilson explains why Blush is looking for a normal bride; “A Blush bride can be any woman, of any age, so we are delighted to receive entries from both older and younger entrants this year. You don’t have to be model material to get through to the final stages, we look for glowing brides who just beam with happiness and have the right spirit for our campaign, which is what the Blush ethos is all about.”
You may remember earlier posts of mine covering the 2014 competition, and it was Zoe Hanna from Kilkeel, in County Down, who fought off fierce competition from across Ireland and beyond to be crowned the Face of Blush 2014! (You can read more about Zoe & her win HERE). She has enjoyed her year so far as the Face of Blush, starring in a fabulous photo shoot just weeks before her wedding, and will now be appearing in numerous magazines and newspapers as Blush’s advertising campaign is published in the coming months.
I'm also very pleased to be able to share with you some of the stunning photos taken of Zoe by the renowned photographer Khara Pringle!!
Lucky Zoe also got to choose the wedding dress of her dreams, along with all her accessories to complete her bridal look. Her mum also got to choose her perfect Mother of the Bride outfit from the stunning Blush collections. On her wedding day Zoe had her hair professionally styled by Lynette Murray from Blue Hairdressing and make-up by award-winning make-up artist Caoimhe Curran.
Primary School Teacher Zoe said about her experience: “Winning Face of Blush 2014 was amazing and I am so grateful and appreciative to Blush Boutique for the opportunity. The prize package was incredible and truly made the run up to our wedding even more special. The professionalism, not only at Blush Boutique, but also with the photographer, the make-up artist and hairdresser was outstanding. The photoshoot with Khara Pringle was a fantastic day with lots of giggles, fun and some hilarious posing positions. I was nervous to begin with, but soon got into the way of it, and loved every minute. I just wish I could rewind the clock and do it all again. And again and again!"
Aileen Wilson has been overwhelmed by the success of Face of Blush over the past number of years, and said; “We’ve always had a huge number of entries from across Ireland for Face of Blush, and sometimes even brides come from across the Irish Sea and even across the Channel, which is wonderful to see that bride will search near and far to find the dress of their dreams. This year we found our real bride in Zoe, who just encompassed everything that Blush was about. The Face of Blush is a wonderful competition and a joy to plan and I am really looking forward to the 2015 search.”
To be in with the chance of becoming the Face of Blush, simply call in to Blush Boutique on the Lisburn Road or visit the website at www.blushboutique.co.uk. Entrants must be real brides, getting married within the next year. Closing date December 2014.
