Each of my weddings are memorable for different reasons. Its so much fun being a part of the morning process surrounded by excitable energy. One that really stands out is a bridal group of 12 all singing disney songs at the top of their voices while getting ready (and yes I did join in).

Majority of my brides and grooms are recommendations from previous couples. I love that my couples have felt confident in my work to recommend me to their friends and family for their special days.
Have multiple budgets. Your ideal budget, your comfortable, and your stretch budget which you absolutely cannot pass. Aim for the ideal, but having the comfortable and stretch will help you question how much specific items mean to you for your big day.
A personal favourite will always be a loved one singing the first dance song. I've seen it at a few weddings I've attended and it always makes it so much more emotional.
Once quoted and confirmed we will book a trial so we can create the style ahead of your wedding day, ensuring the big day goes smoothly. I'll send you a timeline for hair and makeup in the morning with schedules including your full bridal party and have you all ready an hour before you need to leave. Leaving plenty of time for dressing and photos without rushing. I'll also leave you with products needed for touchups throughout the day.
Being a part of such a special day for each of my couples. My job is not only to make people feel beautiful but also to help keep energies in the morning positive and calm. As exciting as wedding mornings are they can be stressful, as your HMUA, I make sure you focus on the excitement and feeling confident on your big day.
nail your skincare asap. Great skin makes for great makeup! If you can work with someone to build a secure skincare routine (and I am happy to advise) and then stick to it for the months before your wedding you will notice a huge benefit to how your makeup sits and lasts.
Having a trial will help you feel calm about the hair and makeup, but in terms of everything else we just chat away. Keep your mind on the positive and the excitement.
Try not to touch your face and hair too much (practise now!) And ask your bridemaids to be on the lookout for when you need touch ups etc. I provide products so you can touch up throughout the day with the right colours to keep you looking fresh all day.
