FINDING YOUR DREAM WEDDING LOOK

BRIDES

Having had the privilege of looking after numerous brides, I fully appreciate and understand just how important and special your wedding day really is.​ On your big day you absolutely need to trust your chosen make-up artist to completely handle every aspect of your look. That's where I come in!

Whether you're dreaming of looking your most natural self or wishing to travel back in time with a 50's twist, every bride has a different idea of what they want. Using professional skills, I will listen to your requirements and work with you to enhance your best features while offering advice on your makeup options, not forgetting to take into account the overall theme of your wedding and the style of your dress to ensure everything works in harmony.

I offer my very best personal service and am here to answer any questions, alleviating any worries you may have. It’s of the upmost importance to me that you enjoy your makeup styling so you feel happy, comfortable, confident and, above all, stunning at the end of the process.

YOUR TRIAL

Your wedding trial is an opportunity for you to get to know me and to thoroughly discuss potential ideas you have for your desired makeup look. Some brides already have an idea of what they are looking to achieve, some brides don't, and that's ok!

It's a good idea to gather a few inspiration photos you like whether that’s from my gallery, Instagram or Pinterest. Or, if you have a photo of you in a makeup look you loved it's a great starting point. Either way, your trial allows you time to explore what really works for you. I will have you holding the mirror throughout the appointment to enable you to ask questions; take this opportunity to really pick my brains!

Your trial usually takes place 1-3 months before your wedding and tends to be 1-2 hours long, allowing plenty of time to discuss makeup, your venue, your hairstyle too.  It's essential I take photos once your makeup appointment is finished to record and of course recreate the look on your big day. Wearing a white top or something that reflects the colour of your wedding dress or outfit will contribute to seeing how your look ties together.

YOUR ENTOURAGE

I know how much your bridal party mean to you and how you want them to feel beautiful on your wedding day too. Offering makeup to bridesmaids, mums and extra special guests through my bespoke booking service and my packages, I will have you all looking photo ready ready to walk the aisle together. ​

Having tried and tested many products over the years, my makeup kit only contains high quality brands that I trust will give you a long lasting, radiant finish and hold throughout the tears, the laughter and of course the dancing!

Brands include: Dior, Laura Mercier, Charlotte Tilbury, Bobbi Brown, Armani, Makeup by Mario, Hourglass and Nars to name a few.
