Lauren Wheeler Artistry

I booked Lauren a year ago in Feb 2021 for my wedding in May 2022. Just now, three months before my wedding, she suddenly realized she DOUBLE-BOOKED herself and she canceled my booking with with an email - without providing an alternative solution. This is after having been in touch to organize the trial. She NEVER replied to a call or an email without having to be chased. I really wish I had listened to my instinct and recognized this as a massive red flag of a disorganized business. Please don’t make my same mistake and look elsewhere for a HMUA for your wedding or you’ll risk having to find a new one a few weeks before your event. If you want more details, please find me on social media.

Dear Lauren, A big thank you for our hair and makeup services for our wedding at Stone Barn on Friday 28th September 2018. From the moment I went onto your website and to having a trial at your house, it was nothing but professionalism. Your easy-going nature and your ability to listen and give suggestions meant that I was able to look and feel my best. You did an amazing job with the bridesmaids hair too and they loved it as much as I did. I've enclosed a couple of photos of you in 'action' taken by Eve. I can't recommend you enough and I hope one day I'll get to utilise your artistry again. Big thanks & with love, Connie & Rhys xxx

Lauren did my hair and makeup for my wedding, and I was absolutely over the moon with it. I was nervous about having my makeup done as I have some skin issues that I am self-conscious about, but Lauren made me feel absolutely perfect - she was understanding and patient (we had multiple trials) and I simply couldn't imagine anyone better. I have never liked photographs of myself more, and this is down to Lauren and her work. I looked natural, but like a better version of myself which is exactly what I was after and I felt comfortable and beautiful all day. Lauren has done my hair and makeup again since, and again I had the same experience - she is a real pleasure to be around and I always receive compliments when Lauren has done my hair and makeup. I had different looks each time, natural for my wedding day, and a more dramatic look for the second event, and each time they were perfect. Lauren is great at understanding what clients are after and delivering. It really can't be underestimated how much it can change the way you feel when you are comfortable and confident in the way you look. Lauren is a superstar. I would (and do) recommend to everyone.

I knew from the beginning that I wanted one person to do both my hair and make up for my wedding. What I didn’t realise was that this was a difficult task! I found so many people where I liked one or the other until I found Lauren on Instagram. I loved her style and booked straight away. I don’t wear a lot of make up day to day and had heard several horror stories from friends trials where make up was caked on and told it was needed for the photos. Lauren and I were chatting away as soon as I walked through the door. I loved that she wanted to get to know me, my style and the style of the wedding before we even started on hair and make up. She was very flexible in the trial and I was really happy with the results. THEN came the wedding day, I can honestly say I have never felt so beautiful. The make up stayed in place all day and I absolutely loved my hair. I wish you could help me get ready more often! We hadn’t discussed the bridesmaids hair & make up too much in advance but I showed a few photos the morning of the wedding and Lauren & her assistant did a brilliant job of bringing it to life. Thanks so much girls!

Lauren and her team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. My bridesmaids and I had such a great time with them on the morning of my wedding. She created the perfect atmosphere to keep us all chilled while had our hair and make up done which was great. And we absolutely loved the results!

Heya Lauren, Hope you are good 😊 I wanted to share the wedding photos. I absolutely love them and just love how incredible the girls and I look. Thank you so much for making this day awesome! Please feel free to download any photos. Many Thanks, Jo Wilder

Hi Lauren - SO sorry it's taken me so long to send this message but I wanted to say thank you properly for doing my hair and makeup for my wedding. You and your colleague (so sorry I can't remember her name!) were such a lovely addition to the household on the morning and I was extremely pleased with the result. I really felt like you listened to what I wanted (which was fairly vague!) but also used your own ideas to get it just right. Thank you very much indeed! Thought you might like these pics of you in action.... Best wishes Hatty (4th August bride!)

Hi Lauren I hope you’re well. I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for everything you did for my wedding. I’m sorry I was a bit nervous on the morning so I wasn’t the best company but I was so pleased with my hair and makeup and what you did for my sister and my nieces. Thanks also for being so calm around me – it definitely helped having you there!! If you would like me to write a review for your website please let me know and I’ll put together something a bit more eloquent! Best wishes, Amanda

Thank you to Sam and Kamila for amazing hair and Mu for my wedding. Lovely company for the wedding morning too! The whole experience working with Lauren and her team was so easy and perfect from start to finish. Sam really listened to what I wanted and for the first time EVER I didn’t feel like I wanted to change or tone down anything she’d applied. Absolutely thrilled and highly recommend. Xx

Dear Lauren, Thank you so much for the beautiful make-up you did for myself and the bridesmaids and the mothers for my wedding day. You were so calming and so organsied and the make-up was exactly what we had hoped for. Everyone looked and felt natural but also felt extra specially beautiful. You are really talented and I'm so delighted to have worked with you. Thank you so much! I've left you a review on google and I attach some photos from the wedding day by our photographer (Kate Waters) in case they are of interest. Thanks so much for your generous help. Best wishes, Grace Watson (Née Petkovic)
