Wedding Make-up Services

The Wedding Package

This includes a trial and make-up on the day.

Pre-wedding Make-up Trial

Prior to your wedding day, a make-up trial is essential for the bride. This is to ensure that you are absolutely satisfied and the perfect look is achieved, and that you have no sensitivities to the products used.  A trial should take place 4-8 weeks before the wedding day; by this time you should know how you are wearing your hair, your colour scheme, and any accessories. These details are important and must be considered when deciding what colours to use. It is absolutely fine should you wish to have a trial earlier than 4/6 weeks.  I will travel to your home, or wherever is most convenient for you. (Please see areas covered in Travel section.)

Ideally, the trial should take place in daylight. This allows me to match the foundation to your skin tone so that it blends perfectly and compliments your complexion, achieving the most natural, flawless look possible. It’s often helpful to cut out images from magazines of any styles you like, and we will explore any looks you wish to create, and decide on the best one for you.  Adjustments will be made until you are 100% happy with the make-up. I will record the products and colours used, and produce a face chart of the way the make-up has been applied in order to reproduce the look exactly on your wedding day. I will also provide professional tips to ensure that the make-up lasts as long as possible throughout the ceremony, photographs and reception.

The Wedding Day

On your wedding day, make-up for the bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and any other special guests will be done first, with your make-up last, (after hair styling) to ensure the look is fresh.  I will prepare your skin to ensure you look healthy and radiant, and spend as long as necessary with the make-up (the timing for this will have been calculated and discussed at the trial, and I will arrive on the day with plenty of time allowed).

I will visit you at home or at the wedding venue on your wedding day and recreate the look achieved at the trial. We will go over the advice and tips discussed at the trial – such as powder and blotting paper.

As an additional service, I will be available throughout the day to apply any touch-ups to the make-up or any adjustments you would like for the reception.  Please contact me for a quote.

Make-up on the day without pre-wedding Trial

You may choose to have your make-up done on the day without the trial or skin analysis. I will prepare your skin and provide colour analysis prior to the make-up application. You will receive the brand and colour of lipstick that I have used, free of charge, as a gift for your wedding day.

Photographic Package

Some brides prefer to have their photographs taken on a different day to their wedding, in order for the wedding to be a more relaxing day.  In this instance, I will complete full make-up on the day that the photographs are taken.

Bridal Make-up Lesson

This is ideal if you are getting married abroad, or simply wish to learn how to apply your own make-up on your wedding day. We will discuss the appropriate skin care and preparation, as well as a step-by-step demonstration on how to apply the make-up for you chosen look. After I have applied the make-up and you are satisfied with the look, you will recreate the look under my supervision and guidance. We will discuss suitable products and colours, and I will provide you with a face chart of the products used; enabling you to recreate the look exactly.

A Bridal Make-up Lesson lasts approx. 3 hours
