This is your special day and I can provide you all my skills to ensure that you look amazing throughout.

Trial

The trial run is designed to give you peace of mind as we can experiment with different styles of hair and make-up in the comfort of your home until you are totally happy. Trials normally last 1 - 3 hours. It may be useful to collect pictures for ideas and I can also help with suggestions.

Wedding Day

I will arrive at your home or venue with plenty of time to prepare all the people required. The pampering I provide should help you relax before your big day and you will be confident in the knowledge that you'll look your very best.
