I specialise in providing a relaxed, affordable and professional service to make the start of the most exciting day of your life memorable! I use a selection of top professional cosmetic products to create your desired look and believe it is imperative to listen to you and find out what you would like, what make up you usually wear, or how you wear your hair and I love to find out all about what you have planned for the day, down to flowers, dress and colour themes so that I can help you make your dreams a reality. This is your wedding and I want it to be everything you ever dreamed of! I also cater for Vegan brides or bridesmaids, I hold a lot of Vegan brushes and top professional cosmetics too. I offer a FREE pre wedding consultation with myself to chat about your wedding and your ideas if you would like to meet me before you book me too. A non refundable deposit is requested to hold your booking date and this also covers your trial and is deducted from your total invoice. Trials are done in my studio in my garden and I come to you on the day. Winning makeup artist and bridal hairstylist of the year in Dorset 2017 and 2018 I have gone on to be a judge for the Business wedding Awards in 2020, last year I won Bridal Stylist of the Year for the Salon Awards. I never sit still and enjoy learning how to create new hairstyles and new makeup looks and using new products and techniques, its what keeps my business exciting and modern too, yet either classic or glam, every look is tailored to you and your requirements. You will find my prices are very reasonable as I just want everyone to be able to afford to look beautiful on their special day. If you would like to chat more please don't hesitate to get in touch xx
I don't really have any favourite weddings, I love my job so much that each wedding is personal to each bride and I love being a part of their special day.
Bespoke, personal, individual, professional and relaxed
The best thing about my business is meeting so many amazing brides and their families, its such an honour to be a part of such a special day.
Book your hair and make up artist early! So many brides leave it until the last minute but I have bookings up to 2 years in advance, when you have found someone you want to use book them immediately
A groom hade made his bride to be a book of all their memories together since they had first met and looking forward to their married life, I just thought it was the sweetest thing i'd ever seen
After an initial enquiry, some people just want to book me and pay a deposit and others want to meet me, its completely up to the individual.
After the deposit is paid, I ask the bride to send me over images of hairstyles or make up they are thinking of and I start to create them a mood board of ideas for their trial. Not everyone knows what they would like and that's fine as I can help them on their trial.
Trials are done about 2 months before the wedding, so the hair length is about the same as it would be on the wedding date.
That each bride is individual and wants something different for their big day, my job is always different and keeps me on my toes
Drink lots of water! 2 litres a day if you can ...this really helps to rehydrate your skin and will keep you fit and healthy too
I don't get stressed, so as long as I stay relaxed I find the bride does too
Take a lipstick that we use at your trial to top up on the day, other than that your hair and make up will last all day and night
