Absolutely amazing!
I couldn't be happier that I chose her for my wedding day! Her work was simply brilliant. I was initially worried because my hair, being different from British people’s as I am Eastern Asian, might be difficult to style, but my concerns were completely unnecessary. She was incredibly attentive and made me feel confident with her vision. Everything was done to perfection and the results were beyond my expectations. I'm so glad I trusted her for such an important day and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a true professional!

Exceptional!
I don’t really know how I can put into words how fabulous Ellie is but I’ll try!
Ellie totally put me at ease at my makeup trial as didn’t really know what I was looking for and she nailed it. She kept asking what I thought throughout the trial and was happy to tweak/try out different things depending on my feedback.
Ellie done my makeup on the wedding day as well as three bridesmaids and my mum. Makeup was flawless and lasted all day. We all felt so amazing and beautiful and couldn’t be happier with the results. 💕
Ellie also fitted in with my bridal party so well. We had such an amazing and fun morning getting ready. Thank you so much Ellie; you are amazing at what you do and I will be recommending you to whoever I can! Xxx

Couldn't ask for anything more perfect
I booked Ellie for my wedding day on 24th August, 2024 to do my hair and make up. I booked the LUXE package which sounded amazing and extra special, and it really was.
Ellie was wonderful from the moment I first met her at my trial. She listened to exactly what I wanted to create my vision for me - which came out perfectly. On the wedding day she was just as phenomenal, especially as I had decided (at the last minute) to make a few changes to my hair style. Ellie was totally flexible and accommodating.
Overall, a wonderful experience with a truly talented lady. I would highly recommend!

Brilliant Wedding Hair and Make Up Artist!
Ellie did mine and my 4 bridesmaids hair and make up for my wedding in July. She is so professional and knew exactly what I wanted from my trial, and listened to what my bridesmaids wanted on the day. She was easy to communicate with and is genuinely a lovely person. Our hair and make up stayed in place all day. I could not have asked for a better HMUA! Thank you!!

Fantastic!
I was so happy with my hair and makeup for my wedding day. Ellie really listened and gave me exactly what I wanted. I was expecting to have to touch up later in the day but my hair and makeup stayed perfect all day and I felt amazing. I cant recommend Ellie enough, I just wish she could do my hair and makeup every day !

Perfect makeup
I absolutely loved my wedding makeup - and so did all my bridesmaids. My hair stayed perfect all night long! Ellie was so flexible in the run up to the wedding, too - we did two trials for makeup and I really felt comfortable asking for changes to make sure I was 100% happy.

Just perfect!
I can’t express how grateful I am to Ellie for everything she did for myself and my sisters and mum on our big day, she made us all look and feel so amazing to the point where it made me emotional. Not only that but she’s just such a joy to be around which is so lovely on the morning of your wedding as it’s quite an emotional time. She made us all feel so at ease and comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough for hair and make up. She was spot on for all of us! It was also raining on my big day but my make up and hair was all still in place when I went up to go to bed.
Thank you so so much Ellie

The best MUA and hair you'll find!
Elle did a trial for me for my hair and make up for my wedding, which I thought was amazing and I was so happy. On my wedding day she did makeup and hair for my bridal party and myself. Everyone felt amazing, and I felt so confident. I was sad to wash off my make up and take out my hair at the end of the day. Elle is everything you want in a hair and make up artist, she is calm, professional down to earth and friendly. I would 100% recommend her to everyone. Thank you for making me feel a million dollars on my big day.

I felt so special
Ellie thank you so much for making me feel like the most special bride on my wedding day, my makeup and hair were amazing and lasted all day and night! I can’t thank you enough.
The morning spent with you pampering myself, the bridesmaids, my mum and my nan was soo much fun and you kept us all relaxed.
Everyone commented on how beautiful we all looked and I thank you for that!

Ellie is amazing!
Ellie did my wedding hair and makeup along with 2 of my bridesmaids and my step-mum. She is incredible and what she does, very professional but also so personable and fitted into my wedding morning so well. I had a trial beforehand and explained what I wanted and was completely listened to as to what I was after. She gave me exactly what I was after and I felt a million dollars on the day. Thank you so much Ellie xx

Amazing from start to finish. The only person I’ll ever use again!
After several disappointing trials (think really heavy & nothing like I asked for) I’d pretty much given up on my bridal hair & makeup. Along came Ellie to save the day! She was so attentive and professional in the trial, trying different hair styles & getting my feedback at every step. She really cared about giving me options & making sure I felt good on the day.
I was so impressed, she ended up doing my bridesmaids on the day too & they looked incredible.
The main thing I wanted was a natural, feminine look but something that would last the long (hot) day. It did just that & we were all thrilled.
THANK YOU!

Elli is Amazing!
Elli was amazing from the start. I don’t wear make up but want to look special on my big day and Elli made me feel comfortable when discussing what look I wanted. On the day she made me, my bridesmaids and mum look beautiful and made me feel so confident. I could not have asked for a better person to do my make up.’
