Wonderful hair and make up from a wonderful woman

Emma was so professional and kind the whole way through the process. She did mine (bride), bridesmaid and mother of the brides hair and make up. For such an early morning start I have no clue how she had the energy to produce such wonderful work. Everyone was so pleased with their final looks. I really appreciated Emma listening to my concerns and tweaking my make up from trial to wedding day. Zero regrets hiring her, she was fantastic.

Fabulous wedding makeup

I cannot thank Emma enough for my fabulous makeup on my wedding day. I felt like the best version of myself all thanks to her! I trusted her completely to understand the look I wanted at my trial, and she got it spot on, absolutely 0 changes for the big day. Her energy and kind words were exactly what I needed in the morning of the wedding also with my bridesmaids. I have already recommended her to many family and friends. Thank you Emma!

So happy with my wedding make up!

I would definitely recommend Emma to anyone looking for a wedding MUA or Hair Stylist. She did an amazing job of my make up and the rest of the bridal party. She was very friendly and fit so well into our wedding morning, putting me at ease. Thank you Emma! I was so happy with the end result and will definitely use Emma again for hair and makeup for special occasions.

Perfection!

From someone who never had their makeup done professionally before and didn’t really know what to ask for, Emma was the most perfect MUA I could have asked for on my wedding day! Not only is she so friendly and chatty and lovely, she knows exactly how to make you glow and feel incredible whatever you ask for. She was so open to any concerns or changes we wanted to make after the trial and put 100% into making sure we all felt our best on the day. It also stayed perfectly all day without any touch ups! Cannot recommend Emma enough and neither can my bridesmaids 😍

Perfection!

Emma done my hair and make up for my wedding and I couldn’t have asked for more! I felt amazing, she listened to everything I had to say. Helped me when I was freaking about make up and hair looks and just made me feel at ease, nothing was too much for her! My bridesmaids, mum and mother in law all had their make up done too and also felt incredible. Would highly recommend and would use again and again!

I cannot recommend Emma enough! You can tell from the get-go how professional she is, and she instantly put me at ease. I was nervous about having my make up done as I don’t wear a lot usually, or was used to doing it in my own way, but Emma really listened to my wants/needs and made me feel absolutely incredible on my wedding day.
She is someone who will throw herself in and get involved, effortlessly merging into your bridal party on the day. She gave me the most amazing soft glam look, and even though on my trial I had selected a strip lash, upon the last minute when I changed my mind, Emma made me a custom set with individuals, strips and cluster lashes. Now, that’s what we like to see!

Incredible

Emma was amazing from start to finish, especially answering the million of questions I had over the months prior to the wedding.

The trial experience was incredible and Emma was great at turning my vision into reality, trying a few hair styles and talking through makeup looks.

On the day my makeup and hair looked incredible and I could not have been happier, I have never felt as beautiful as I felt on my wedding day. I got so many compliments and my makeup and hair looks even more beautiful in the professional photos.

Emma also did my friends hair which looked stunning the whole day and Emma also did my mum's makeup which looked incredible and put her at ease as she was worried about this.

If you are looking for a wedding makeup or hair artist, Emma is incredible - thank you so much for being amazing and making me feel beautiful!

April 2024 Bride here!

What can I say about Emma!

I have used Emma’s services before for a wedding I went to and knew that I would be booking Emma for my big day! Both Emma and Shannon (hair) made me feel like a million dollars! So thank you so much! Xx

Simply amazing

Emma did a perfect job of our hair on my wedding day back in April!
From the initial first contact, to the trials and to the wedding day, Emma was just outstanding! She answered every question imaginable, gave advice on what would and wouldn’t suit me and my dress, and just fit in with my crazy bridal party on the wedding morning. She helped calm nerves, style my hair when my dress was on, didn’t seem to bat an eyelid when impromptu dance routines made an appearance, and just dealt with such an array of hair on the day. Our hair lasted all night - and we were still partying gone midnight - and looked just as perfect as it did in the morning.
I can’t recommend Emma enough for bridal hair styling 🩷

Wouldn’t use anyone else

After Emma did my makeup for my friends wedding, I knew she had to do my makeup for mine. I got married in 35 degree heat and my makeup latest all day. I love her ability to do glam but without making it look ‘caked on’. I’ve used Emma for many other occasions and I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

What can I say... Emma was amazing from start to finish. Excellent communication, wonderful trial and planning, and my bridal make up was incredible, I have never felt so beautiful. My whole bridal party looked fantastic, thanks to Emma. Highly recommend.

Couldn’t be happier

Emma did my bridesmaids makeup and both my make up and hair. I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything better. She made me feel like a princess for my big day. Both make up and hair lasted so well for the whole day, I didn’t have to touch up. She provided me with a little bag which had a small tub of my chosen lipstick which was super helpful! Emma was also so great during my make up and hair trials, giving me ideas when I wasn’t too sure. I would 100% recommend Emma.
