Introduction

From the very first consultation to the final reception look, Teju’s wedding was a celebration of love, culture, and artistry. Spanning two unforgettable days in August 2025, her interfaith wedding honored both her Hindu and Muslim roots through meaningful ceremonies including the Nikah, Haldi, Hindu ceremony, and reception. Cinderella Bridez was honored to be part of every moment of her journey.

From Referrals to Trust

Teju found Cinderella Bridez through trusted referrals from friends and family who had previously experienced the team’s work. From the start, she felt confident she was in good hands — a feeling that only grew stronger as the process unfolded.

Her hair and makeup trial became a defining moment. With little prior experience with professional makeup, Teju appreciated how artist Sarah took the time to explain each step, from product choices to how bridal makeup differs from everyday glam. What began as nerves quickly turned into reassurance, helping Teju feel informed, comfortable, and excited for her wedding days.

The Cinderella Moment

Teju says there was one moment that truly made her feel like a Cinderella bride — after her full glam was complete for the Nikah ceremony. When Sarah helped her place her veil and she looked in the mirror, everything came together. The look felt refined and understated, yet beautifully impactful.

As the weekend continued, Teju’s confidence only grew. Her reception look became her favorite, allowing for more freedom and fun as she celebrated with loved ones. Even details she was initially unsure about, like false lashes, became favorite finishing touches that elevated each look.

A Celebration of Love, Family, and Calm

Teju and her husband’s interfaith wedding was not only a blend of cultures, but a true celebration of family and acceptance. One of the most meaningful moments came during their first look at the Hindu ceremony, when her husband saw her fully adorned in jewelry and bridal attire. His reaction, she shared, is a memory she will treasure forever.

Throughout the weekend, the Cinderella Bridez team helped create a calm, joyful atmosphere — not just for Teju, but for her bridesmaids and her mother as well. Knowing everyone felt comfortable and cared for allowed Teju to stay present and fully enjoy each moment.

✨ Q&A with Teju

Q: Overall, how was your experience with Cinderella Bridez?

A: The experience was super positive. Everybody was really happy with their makeup — from my bridesmaids, to my mom, to myself. So yeah, a few thumbs up from me.

Q: What made you choose Cinderella Bridez for your wedding?

A: I actually found Cinderella Bridez through a referral from one of my really good friends who had her wedding makeup done a few years ago. I also had a few other people in my social circle who had really positive experiences, which made the decision really easy.

Q: How did the team help you plan and execute your bridal look?

A: The first step was definitely the hair and makeup trial. I was pretty nervous because I hadn’t had professional hair and makeup done many times before, especially for something as big as my own wedding. Sarah was incredibly informative and walked me through the entire process — what products work best, why bridal makeup is applied differently, and what would suit my features and wedding colors. I felt very comfortable in her hands.

Q: What moment made you truly feel like a Cinderella bride?

A: During my first ceremony, when Sarah helped me put on my veil and I looked in the mirror after the full makeup application, I definitely felt like a bride. I felt very beautiful. The look was understated, but still phenomenally well done. That was the moment it really hit me.

Q: Which wedding look was your favorite?

A: The reception look was definitely my favorite. It wasn’t super traditional, so we got to have a little more fun with it. Since it was the final look of the weekend, it felt like the perfect send-off.

Q: How was your experience with your bridesmaids and family getting ready?

A: Every single one of my bridesmaids had a really positive experience. My mom had never had her hair and makeup done professionally before and was really nervous, but Sarah made her feel so comfortable. Honestly, that alone meant so much to me.

Q: What was the most memorable reaction you received to your bridal look?

A: We did a first look during our Hindu ceremony, and the way my husband looked at me was the most loving and wonderful expression I’ve ever seen. That moment made everything completely worth it.

Q: Any final thoughts for the Cinderella Bridez team?

A: Overall, it was such a positive experience. I’ve already recommended Cinderella Bridez to so many people planning weddings because the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Two thumbs up on everything.
