I'm getting married abroad, do you travel outside of the UK?
How exciting! As an adventurer at heart, I absolutely love a destination wedding!
Organising a makeup artist for your wedding abroad can seem like a daunting task. That's why I will organise all of my flights, visa, travel/car hire, accommodation and kit, so you don't need to stress about any of that.
I will also prepare a makeup schedule for your destination wedding to ensure everything runs smoothly.

What about the trial?
Trials will usually take place at my home in Bristol, but if preferred I am happy to travel to your location of choice! Travel is charged at 50p per mile outside of a 20 mile road distance of BS5 9QA (round trip).
If you are based outside of the UK, I can arrange to arrive a few days prior to your wedding date to complete your trial.
When should I book in my trial?
I recommend we book in your trial 8-12 weeks prior to your wedding date.
Please allow approximately 2 hours for your trial.
Do I need to bring anything to my trial?
I encourage you to wear something to your trial in a similar colour and neckline as your wedding outfit, this will really help us to visualise how your makeup will look on the day!
I love to see your inspiration for your look so please do come armed with images of styles you would like to try out. Create a Pinterest board and get pinning!
I also love to see photos of your dress / outfit and anything else that will help us to imagine how the final look will come together.
How long will you need on the wedding morning?
My aim is to ensure your wedding morning runs as smoothly as possible! This is where having a makeup schedule is super important and is something that I will prepare for all of my wedding clients.
Typically I allocate 45-60 minutes per wedding party makeup, with 1 hour - 1 hour 15 minutes for the bride. We will run through the schedule together at your trial to ensure we're on the same page with start & finish times.
Do you have a minimum booking requirement?
Due to high demand, the minimum booking for weddings in peak season ( Fri / Sat / Sun between April - October) is 4 x adult makeups (this must include the bride).
Bookings that don’t reach the minimum on peak dates will still be charged at the equivalent minimum cost.
How many people can you manage on the wedding morning?
One or more assistant artists will be required for the following bookings:
- Where more than six adult makeup services are required
- Where the venue has access time restrictions
- Where the required makeup services are unable to be completed within a specific timeframe
Are you insured?
Yes! I'm fully covered by public liability insurance to protect both my clients and myself.
Is your kit vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes! I love animals and I don't believe they should be harmed for us to look beautiful.
My kit is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. My makeup brushes and lashes are entirely synthetic, even the products I use to sanitise my kit are cruelty-free & vegan.
What brands do you use in your kit?
I use high-quality vegan products from cruelty-free brands such as:
Hourglass, Charlotte Tilbury, Too Faced, Danessa Myricks, Bodyography, Urban Decay, KVD Beauty, Huda Beauty, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Beauty Pie and Illamasqa.
How do I secure my wedding date in your diary?
A booking is secure once a non-refundable booking fee of £100 has been paid.
The booking fee covers the reservation of the date and any administrative costs related to supplying makeup services.
This booking fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. It will be deducted from the outstanding balance which is due 4 weeks before your wedding date.
Are lashes included?
Yes! Individual lashes, or strip lashes are included with all makeup services. All lashes and lash glue are vegan and cruelty-free.
(Please note there is no reduction in price for any makeup service if lashes are declined).
