WELCOME huge congratulations

CONFIRMATION

Next comes your contract & a £200 deposit, then you’re all set! Your booking is safely locked in my diary. To begin your journey get in touch today. I’d love to hear from you.

CONSULTATIONS

Around 3-5 months before your wedding day we book in your consultation. These are hosted on weekdays in my studio just outside Dorchester. Here we will build your wedding look, delve into your skincare & talk through all of your details. So when your wedding comes around we’ll already know what to do. You can sit back, relax & know your day will go exactly as planned.

CONSULTATION PRICES: FROM £150 FOR HAIR OR MAKEUP

FROM £250 FOR HAIR & MAKEUP

WEDDING DAY

On your wedding day I will come to you at your chosen venue. I will create a schedule for your wedding day ensuring your hair & makeup is complete with plenty of time for touch-ups, photography & dressing.

I’ll send you an email with all your details on how to prepare so you can pass this on to the rest of your wedding party - one less thing for you to worry about!

The [very lovely] feedback I hear time & time again from wedding mornings is that I have a calm energy.

You know I’ll be there for your hair & makeup, but I’ll also be on hand for anything else you need. I bring my experience from many wedding mornings & my background in dressing actors often comes in handy too!

And if you need a few minutes just to breathe & take it all in - we’ll do just that.

FAQ

  • When do you open your wedding diary?

    My diary for each year opens in May. My 2024 & 2025 diary is currently open.

  • Where are you based & how far do you travel?

    I am based just outside of Dorchester in Dorset. I usually work in Dorset, Devon, Somerset & Wiltshire, but I’ve worked all over the UK & abroad. I’m happy to travel to wherever you are providing travel & accommodation are covered. However, to try to stay sustainable I aim to work locally & support using local suppliers for weddings. Travel is charged taking into account mileage + time. Approximate charges are £35 for up to 40 minutes. £45 for up to an hour & £50 per hour + mileage for any travel over an hour.

  • Can I book a trial with you before I decide?

    You are welcome to book a hair &/or makeup trial with me before you decide, but in order to reserve your wedding date in my diary I have to take a deposit. If someone pays their deposit before you they will get the date. Therefore if you wait until after your trial to reserve your wedding date, you run the risk of your wedding date already being booked.

  • What brands do you use in your professional kit?

    I am now only adding sustainable brands to my kit who prioritize using recycled materials, refillable containers & those who have vegan ethics.

    Here’s some of the brands you’ll find stocked in my kit:
    HOURGLASS, IT COSMETICS, BEAUTY PIE, NATASHA DENONA, CHARLOTTE TILBURY, ILLAMASQUA, FENTY, GLOSSIER, KAT VON D, SAIE & TARTE.

  • Do you do hair & makeup outside of weddings?

    Yes. I work on editorials & campaigns for brands and businesses.

    I teach hair & makeup lessons and host masterclasses.

    I also offer event hair & makeup at my studio for events like Proms, Christmas parties, or if you’re a wedding guest. Head over to my contact page to get in touch!

  • How many people can you help me with on the day?

    I can do up to 6 hair &/or makeup services on the wedding morning. For anything over this we will need an additional artist to help us, but my personal minimum spend will still apply.

  • Can I book just hair or just makeup with you?

    Yes you are welcome to do this. I love working with other suppliers.
