Wedding Bridal Hair Styling & Makeup

"Makeup is art, beauty is spirit"

Dedicated to support quality clean eco friendly products

Choosing sustainability in today’s beauty industry is paramount. Whenever possible, I opt for organic cruelty free vegan makeup brands when working with my brides to minimize my footprint. Eco friendly makeup is essentially free from toxic chemicals and harmful ingredients which wreak havoc on your skin. Without compromising quality, we source out our favourite green, clean makeup brands that enhance your beauty. No matter if you’re going for that soft dewy glow or a matte look, rest assured that we’ll emphasize your desired bridal style.

Style Consultation

Tell me about the beautiful bridal look you've been dreaming of! I will make sure I fully understand the style you wish to achieve and we'll go over what best suits your needs for yourself and your wedding party. We will talk about your desired makeup style, brows, lashes and your choice of hairstyle. We will also look at the style of your wedding in regards to concept and colors and of course your dress! We can sit down together in my studio, meet up on zoom or chat on the phone and review wedding magazines and inspo pictures. This is also where we discuss which bridal package best suits your needs and where we align your desired wedding look within your budget. The consultation is absolutely key and free of charge.

Pre-Wedding Trial

The significance in booking a trial is so you and I both see your envisioned look come to life. Soon to be a bride, all focus will be on you and naturally you need to look your best and every detail should be flawless. As your makeup and hair are the highlight of your beauty, don’t miss this important step. This is where we get together and try out different looks to ensure your vision is most authentic to you. Here you can bring your hair accessories, extensions or veil and have the peace of mind all of your features flow together perfectly. We will ensure your makeup is on point and accentuates your beauty. The pre wedding trial is important for your peace of mind that we are the right fit for you. We are here to support you in perfecting your vision so that you leave my studio feeling stunning and confident.

Wedding Day

This is it! One of the most important days of your life that we've been working towards. You can wake up in complete faith, knowing that you will be truly beautiful and all your styling needs are taken care of. I may bring my team of talented stylists to assist with the wedding party and we will meet you at your getting ready venue.

I will take up to 3 hours to do bridal hair and makeup and up to 2 hours for bride's maids. After we've transformed you, looking stunning, you are off to see the love of your life to say "I do". With photos from every angle capturing unforgettable memories.
