Truly excellent

Alice did amazing work, and was very kind and calming on the day of the wedding. I would recommend her 100% to anyone getting married in the area. I got so many compliments and the other ladies loved their looks too!

Alice is amazing!

Alice did my make up for my wedding in October 2018 and oh my god- it was just incredible! Due to something out of my control, I was really ill on the morning of my wedding and without make up- I looked it too. When Alice had worked her magic you could not even tell at all. She made me look flawless! I knew she could do an amazing job because of my trials I had been to with her, but what she did on my wedding day just blew me away. I'm so thankful to her.

Alice is INSANELY good

Alice is SO talented with hair and make up. The word magicial comes to mind as she totally transformed me into princess on my special day and I barely had to touch up my make up at all after she left. She is incredibly professional and any ask I had was never too much. She’s also super friendly and helped calm my nerves on the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Alice for another special event and just can’t say thank you to her enough.

Wizardry!

I've had countless compliments on my hair and makeup on the day and since. Alice really nailed the relaxed, natural brief perfectly and I felt unbelievably confident and beautiful on my Big Day (not things I generally feel, so no mean feat!). I also suspect she’s a wizard, as otherwise I have no idea how my make-up was perfectly in place still at 1am after a warm sweaty day, a few tears, and many hours dancing my socks off. Oh, and she made my mum look absolutely stunning - I've literally never seen her look so good. The confidence Alice gave her just shone out of her beautifully made-up face all day!

Truly beautiful

Alice was amazing from start to finish. She helped to discuss ideas and was happy to make adjustments to styles throughout the wedding preparation. She made all of the bridal party feel at ease and she just felt like one of the girls. The transformation was simply amazing and the hair and make up still looked perfect at the end of the day. Would highly recommend.

It looked flawless all day

Thank you so much for the incredible make up you did for my bridal party and I. I had so many compliments throughout the day and it looked flawless all day, even through some sweaty dancing! The bridesmaids hair looked perfect all day too! Even though you had some challenging hair to deal with, you absolutely nailed it and they were so happy.

Your favourite suppliers can book up sometimes a year in advance! Get in touch and request brochures to avoid missing out on your favourite suppliers.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I offer a no-obligation consultation where I can offer a quote and answer any questions that you may have about the big day. Once you are completely happy we will book you in for your hair and make-up trial. This is where we discuss your ideas and come up with a look thats perfect for you. We then demo the hair and makeup and make sure you love it. Once you are happy with the finished look, we add notes and photos to your notes. I then come up with a time plan for your morning and we meet on the big day feeling prepared and excited. You can sit back, have a glass of bubbly and enjoy your bridesmaids knowing you are all in safe hands.

What do you love most about your job?

Find a skincare routine that works for you. A lip scrub the morning of your wedding will make your lips soft and kissable!

How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?

I come up with a morning time plan so everyone knows where to be at what time and to ensure everything runs smoothly and on time. It can be a much appreciated time for the bride to close her eyes and relax. Or we chat, listen to music, talk about your amazing day ahead and have a giggle. It's an exciting morning and everyone is in such great spirits.

What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?

I always suggest purchasing the lipstick we choose to wear, as that should be the only thing to touch up! If you have an oily skin type, blot papers are great to control shine throughout the evening without adding excess powder to the skin.
