real eyes vs. fake eyes

what a dilemma? its so funny to ask what color eyes should I have on my wedding day?

My natural hair color is dark brown, but as long as i can remember, i have been dying my hair a burgandy red (feria 36).

That will be my hair color on my wedding day.

my natural eye color.. is light brown. I have colored contacts. I have blue and I have turquoise.

I had blue in for my bpix and the pix were so vivid, with the hair and eye combo.

i was thinking of doing it for the wedding, but some people are telling me to be natural. brown eyes.

My hair is not the issue, that is red no matter what...

its just my eyes...

what color do i do?

IMO I would go with your natural eye color.

While I think color contacts are great, I think they photograph a bit strange..you're taking pics you are going to look at for the rest of your life, I would stick to your natural eye color-light brown is gorgeous!

I agree with Jen...I would stay natural. Bpics are one thing, it's like an alias/dress up/alter ego type thing...but wedding pics, you should look like yourself. Do you wear your colored contacts every day, or just special occasions?

I say natural. In my honest opinion, I always can tell when someone has contacts on. I think natural eyes in ANY color are beautiful

i vote natural. I wore colored contacts for my senior pics in high school ( i used to wear them all the time) and i still regret it... years from now you might regret it!

Re: real eyes vs. fake eyes

I am agree with the other girls. My vote is for natural. I was asking myself this same question actually. When i brought it up to my fiance he said he does NOT want me to wear colored contacts because that is not the real me. I was upset at first but i see his point now. Embrace what you have girl!

i agree with natural eyes. i dont think it would look right if you werent 'yourself'

Re: real eyes vs. fake eyes

Go natural! I think brown eyes are deep and sensual, and I think the colored contacts might photograph a bit strange, especially in candids when you might be looking away? Just a thought!

Re: real eyes vs. fake eyes

I say go with what you are most comfortable in. If you're not comfortable in your natural eye color then don't do it! Whatever feels right for you is what you should do. Good luck!

I say go for whichever one YOU want.. I personally prefer natural eyes, however its your day and you should do what you want. Whatever makes you feel beautiful! (Although no matter what you're going to look beautiful- but whatever you're more comfortable with!)
