Albertslund borders Vestskoven, a large planted forest on the western edge of Copenhagen with paths, open meadows and tall trees. Add the gardens of the town’s homes, and you have a natural setting for a relaxed wedding: a reception under a garden tent, bare feet on the grass, and portraits among the trees.
Why start with a trial for a relaxed, boho look?
Effortless styles are surprisingly precise. A boho braid that looks casually undone, or makeup that seems barely there, depends on small choices: how loose the texture is, where the pins sit, how much glow is too much. A trial lets us try these in calm conditions, adjust the details and decide on accessories. You leave knowing exactly what you will look like, and the wedding morning becomes simpler. Trials are available on request, and my bridal makeup trial guide explains how to prepare.
What should we try during the trial?
- Two hair options, for example a loose side braid and a soft half-up style.
- How your veil, flower crown or fresh flowers sit in the hair.
- The intensity of blush and glow you feel comfortable with.
- A lip colour for the ceremony and one for the evening.
Wear a top in a similar colour to your dress, and bring photos of your flowers if you have them. It helps me see the full picture.
Which hair and makeup suit a garden or forest setting?
Under trees, the light is dappled and green-tinted, so I keep the skin warm and luminous to stop it from looking dull. A peachy blush, softly defined eyes and a balm-like lip feel at home in nature. For hair, relaxed textured waves, a loose braid woven with small flowers or a low messy bun with face-framing strands all suit the setting. I make sure everything is pinned well, because garden parties involve hugging, dancing and the occasional gust of wind.

Local questions
When should I book a trial before my wedding?
Usually a few weeks to a couple of months before the date, so there is time to adjust. Trials are available on request.
Can you add fresh flowers to my hair?
Yes. I style fresh or dried flowers, a flower crown, a veil or pins as part of the wedding morning. Ask your florist for small, sturdy blooms.
Will a boho hairstyle hold through a garden party?
Yes. Even loose-looking styles are built on a secure base with hidden pins, so they stay soft but in place through hugs and dancing.
