Why Friday’s are our Fave

July 21, 2017

If we are being honest, Friday’s are everyone’s favorite because it is the end of the week, but for us at the Glam Squad our week is just getting into the busy part. Not only do we get to celebrate our brides, but we also get to participate in RVA’s First Fridays which happens the First Friday of every month in Downtown Richmond’s Art District. This July’s event was a special one for us. It was our second time participating in the walk and our expectations for how amazing the night was going to be were completely exceeded. We wanted to make this time a little more special, which is why we invited our good friends from Mac’sSmack to host a pop up shop inside our studio.

I met Mackenzie, the creator of Mac’sSmack almost a year ago and after sitting down and talking about how we both started our brands I found that the two of us had so much in common that we had to partner together. We have done a lot of things together over the past year, but when the team and I were brainstorming ideas for First Fridays, we just knew a pop up shop with her amazing products was going to be a perfect addition to the fun we were going to offer.

Not only did we have a table full of the summer line (which if you haven’t tried yet you need to!) but we also had some glammies hosting our lip and lash bar! Alisha and Alex were working their magic on everyone who walked into the studio, the bold lip colors and fluttery lashes were perfect as we ushered everyone into the photo booth and everyone picked up their favorite props for the photo opt! 

If you haven’t already noticed we love our new studio space and love any excuse to be able to have people inside of it and First Fridays is the perfect opportunity to introduce ourselves to people in the community in a setting that isn’t as traditional. With in-studio and on-location wedding services, salon appointments, and a place to host events the glam squad has something for everyone. And if you love what we are doing now just wait, because things are getting bigger and are going to be better than ever!
