I like this thread. I'm having a friend of the family do the make up and I'm just doing trials in the stores to see what colors I like. I hope we can reproduce the same look. I ran out of time to look for make up and the wedding is in 3 days!!

Hi Kisha - Did you ever find a steel band? I'm thinking about using Adlib Steel Band from Freeport. I heard them at wedding almost 2 years ago. I think they send you about 6 people.
