Congratulations to all of you new brides-to-be if you got engaged over Christmas or New Year! It is such a special time and can feel overwhelming knowing where to start. Planning a wedding is a huge but fun task but it is also an expensive time. Choosing your suppliers can feel daunting but many of us work regularly with each other so if you book me for your bridal makeup, I can recommend some fabulous suppliers for your wedding day.
Many suppliers (myself included) are booked up a couple of years in advance as standard but due to the pressures of Covid postponements in 2020 and early 2021, 2022 and 2023 are now super busy. I hate the fact that “book in now to avoid disappointment” sounds like such a sales ploy but if you follow me on social media, you will know I don’t do selling… instead I show you what I do and if I am the right fit for you, you book my services. I hate a hard sell and the cliche “limited availability” but genuinely, dates for 2022 and peak season 2023 are indeed very limited now.
So if you are looking for a bridal makeup look that is fresh, glam but naturally enhances your features get in touch. My style is not a one size fits all approach. Essentially I focus on a red carpet makeup style with beautiful, glowing skin and polished nude tones to bring out the best of you. As a minimal makeup wearer myself, I understand the feeling of wanting to look like you are wearing makeup but not for it to feel heavy and caked on. If you are looking for a heavier glam, you only have to ask. That said my makeup style is classic and timeless. There will be no heavy contour, exaggerated eyebrows or trend makeup if you sit on my makeup stool!
I have lots of wonderful feedback and testimonials from my previous brides and bridal parties. Feel free to have a read through their kind words. I am also delighted to have won my 5th industry award last year. I was most recently named “Makeup Specialist of the Year 2021-22” at the Yorkshire Prestige Awards.
Here are some of my 2021 bridal party looks…
