"Ellie you are a star"

Ellie is absolutely amazing. From my bridal trial to my wedding day she has been helpful, professional, and very understanding. On the day my make up didn’t budge even when I shed a tear on my Dad’s shoulder. I totally recommend Ellie and will be recommending Ellie to my friends, for make up and will definitely be booking her again for future and upcoming parties, wedding and events I have. Ellie you are a star. x

"Ellie is so friendly and welcoming"

Ellie is so friendly and welcoming and made me and my sister very relaxed during the trial day for my wedding makeup. On the day of the wedding, she took quality time to make sure that everyone was looking beautiful and even stayed to do touch ups just before be left. Her salon is beautiful and professional and so is she. Prices are amazing for the work she does. Couldn't recommend enough ❤️

"Literally went above and beyond for us"

Highly recommend Booked Ellie almost a year ago to do my bridal makeup last weekend and I couldn't recommend her enough, I didn't have a trial and did not show Ellie any pics of what I wanted but she did the most amazing make up on me and I couldn't have been happier, she stayed until I was completely ready and helped with other bits (she even sat and separated petals for me) and literally went above and beyond for us.

"She is so incredibly talented!"

Ellie is just so lovely and friendly and we always have a laugh when she is doing my makeup, she makes you feel so at ease and relaxed! There wasn’t a single doubt in my mind when I booked her for my wedding, I had my trial and we discussed ideas but she seemed to know exactly what I wanted anyway and created the most perfect look, I was obsessed! She is so incredibly talented and my makeup lasted all day. Thank you so much girly, a regular client for life. 💕 xxx

"She made me feel so comfortable!"

I booked Ellie for my recent wedding for myself and my bridesmaids, Ellie is absolutely lovely, she made me feel so comfortable from the very first contact, super flexible with trials and gives great advice for skin prep etc for the big day. Always listened to my preferences and concerns during the trial. On the actual day Ellie arrive early and even saved the day by going to a local shop for us to pick up some medication and drinks when one of the bridesmaids was unwell , she genuinely felt lik

"She truly is amazing!"

Ellie has been my makeup artist for years, so once I got engaged I knew she would be the one making me and my bridesmaids look perfect for my wedding day and didn’t she do just that! Not only is she incredible at what she does, but she is the nicest, sweetest and kind person along with it! As a type A bride she made me feel so calm and during a beautiful June wedding day, my makeup stayed perfect all through the night! I cannot thank her enough and recommend her! She truly is amazing!

"You are amazing at what you do"

I have been a client of Ellie's for over 5 years now, and I couldn’t think of anyone I'd trust more than her to do my makeup on my wedding day. Ellie is so knowledgeable and talented. She makes you feel so comfortable and it's always like a catch up with an old friend (with the bonus of looking beautiful with a full face of makeup afterwards)! When I went for my trial she made me feel so at ease, she took the time to talk it through with me and was so calm and changed anything I wasn't sure on

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

A longterm client of mine was married in 2019 in the most beautiful venue! I stayed and got the bride and bridal party ready for 2 celebrations. I even had my own butler to carry my makeup kit!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Reliable, considerate, dedicated, modern and passionate.

What about your business are you most proud of?

I built my business from scratch 6 years ago on my own. I pride myself on helping someone express themselves through makeup and take the time to get to know each client.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Organisation! Write a list and tick it off as you go. Join groups on Facebook for weddings they are great for tips and tricks.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

So many but some of my favourites are a picture of a passed loved one in the flowers and seats saved for them. Also a signature sent for the bride, something new that they haven't worn before then that perfume will always remind them of their big day.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

On enquiring I like to know as many details as possible. Such as date, location, ceremony time, number of people and their roles (e.g bridesmaids, bride, mother of bride). Then on the trial and beforehand I like to talk about personal style and how they vision having their makeup on the day. I also have brides who have no idea what they want, so at the trial I like to discuss what I would do in my professional opinion.

What do you love most about your job?

The reason I do what I do and love every single day if that I have the ability to make someone feel confident.

What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?

Skincare! Find a skincare routine that compliments your skin type. Dry, oily or normal. The better the skin condition the better the makeup will look.

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

I allow plenty of time to do the brides makeup, as its a busy morning I don't want to be in a rush. I also suggests to brides its sometimes a good idea to go into a separate room to the bridal party to have their makeup done to keep it calm and give an hour or so of quite for what will be a very busy, emotional day for the bride.

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

Each bride will receive personalised advice to stay looking great throughout the day. This will depend on brides makeup and skin type.
