ANNIEDLUXE

Annie did my makeup for my wedding!! She did the most amazing job ever, i couldn’t have asked for a better MUA. Annie was punctual and extremely professional. She is lovely and creative and did my make up exactly how i wanted it! Highly highly recommend! And she is the kindest and sweetest human ever!

I contacted Annie, this hair and makeup artist, around two months before my wedding. We exchanged several messages and eventually agreed to have a video call to discuss everything in more detail. We arranged a date and time for the call, which she suggested herself. When the agreed time came, I was ready and waiting , but she never called. After an hour of refreshing the chat, i never received a message to say she was unable to make it, nor any attempt to cancel or reschedule the call. Despite this, I decided to continue with her as I liked her portfolio and thought she was a very nice lady, and my wedding was getting closer. Around one month before my wedding, I contacted her to formally book her. She apologised for previously being busy and accepted the booking. She told me she was preparing my invoice, so I understood that everything was confirmed and that the booking was going ahead. After answering the questions she asked me, I then heard nothing for a week. I followed up and received no response. Some days later I followed up again. Then another week passed, taking me into the final week before my wedding, and I followed up again because I was obviously becoming very anxious about the silence so close to my wedding day. Again, no response. Huh??? As I was in Germany at the time, I eventually had to ask my sister-in-law to contact her on my behalf. She then told my sister-in-law that she had not sent the invoice because my venue was “too far away”. What I find particularly disappointing is that this was never communicated to me. I was never told that the venue was too far, nor was I asked whether I would be willing to pay additional travel costs. I would have been happy to discuss this. Her Bridebook profile also states that for weddings outside London or destination weddings, she is happy to travel to the bridal party where possible. If she had simply contacted me and explained that she was unable to travel to my venue, I would have understood or at least would have known to look for someone else. Even just “sorry, can’t do it” would’ve sufficed. Instead, after confirming my wedding date and telling me she was preparing my invoice, she stopped responding and left me to find out through my sister-in-law that she was not intending to proceed. Even after THIS, she never contacted me directly to apologise or explain. Wait, let me just check one last time….ah nope! Nothing! I was left without a hair and makeup artist only one week before my wedding and had to find an alternative on very short notice. I completely understand that circumstances can change and that a supplier may ultimately decide that a location is too far. However, the lack of communication throughout this process was the main issue and caused unnecessary stress during the final weeks before my wedding. I would strongly recommend making sure you have received your invoice and a paid booking confirmation (if you insist on booking) before relying on this artist for your wedding day. I ended up finding Sophie Vosniak, an amazing MUA.

Annie did hair and makeup for my mum, my Maid of Honour and myself (the bride). All three of us couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out! Our makeup lasted all day and all night, even through happy tears, a heatwave, and living it up on the dance floor. I felt like the most beautiful bride. We had the best time getting ready in our hotel room and I am so thankful for the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. If you want to feel like you're in good hands, choose Annie. Thank you for everything!

From trial to wedding day, Annie was absolutely amazing and professional. She listened to exactly what I wanted and brought my vision to life ☺️ My hair and make up stayed intact all day and night! I could’ve even gone to a halloween party that night dressed as a bride 👰🏻 😂 (got married on Halloween 🎃 ) Thank you for making me feel so confident and beautiful on my wedding day ♥️

I couldn’t have been happier to find Annie. She’s amazing at what she does and she absolutely deserves every credit. Both my make up and hair stayed perfectly for the whole day and Annie was a calming force on the morning of the wedding. It’s so clear she’s an absolute pro and any nerves or jitters I felt about being late subsided as soon as she started, she’s works so quickly and professionally goes out of her way to make sure you are happy. I thoroughly recommend Annie - you won’t regret booking her for your special occasion…She will make you look stunning!

I wanted just one person to do my hair and makeup, and Annie was the perfect choice! We did the trial at my place about a month before the wedding, and she travelled all the way, even though it was quite far from where she lives. Throughout the trial, she showed me the progress every few minutes to make sure everything matched my expectations. On our big day, she was absolutely amazing. She stayed calm under pressure, even when we were running a bit late. She’s such a kind, positive person, and most importantly, an absolute professional. Thanks to her, I felt like a princess on my wedding day!

Annie was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day, I’ve never felt so beautiful. From the get go, she was responsive and communicative, she listened to mine and my bridal party’s wants and executed them flawlessly during the trial and then took it up another level on the day itself with the attention to detail that I would never have thought of. My hair and makeup lasted throughout a warm summery day with lots and lots of dancing, sweat and tears so there was no need to carry makeup for touch ups (other than lip gloss hehe). There wasn’t a moment where I felt unsure or uncomfortable, it was like having a friend in the room with me, I enjoyed the experience so much. She’s an incredibly talented artist and versatile as I changed my mind a couple of times about what colour palette I wanted, but, she made it hard to choose as each one looked SO GOOD! I wish I had another excuse to get my makeup done with Annie and she will be on my radar for any future events! I can’t thank her enough ❤️

Annie was fantastic to work with from start to finish. We had a great hair and makeup trial and she was so responsive to what I was looking for, and nailed my vision on the first try. I am so happy with how my hair, makeup, and my bridesmaids' hair came out on the wedding day; everything was absolutely beautiful and just what I was envisioning. On the day of the wedding Annie was super well-organized and kept us all on track. She stayed around for touch ups until we were ready to leave and was generally really kind and helpful to have around. I would recommend Annie to anyone looking for hair and makeup services.

Annie was incredible as the make up artist and hair for our special day! The trial we had together was great- she listened to my vision and enacted it perfectly. I’m beyond happy with how I looked and felt as well as everyone else in my bridal party. She adapted so well to all our requirements and timings - would 100% recommend. I certainly will be booking again for another event in the future!

Annie is amazing to work with. She is friendly, responsive and she knows how to read what you want. I went for quite subtle make up (a tricky ask) with a bold red lip, and Annie delivered! Plus the make up lasted all day without reapplication. She also created a really beautiful, romantic updo for me which I loved. HIGHLY recommend 🥰 thank you Annie!
