Sarah was perfect from the moment I made initial contact about booking her for my best friend's wedding. As a 'General' I needed to source a MUA to create Bridesmaid Hair and makeup for the day. Sarah had to contend with location changes and a reduction in numbers and it didn't phase her, she was one of the Bride Tribe from the moment she walked into the prep room. She nailed everyone's hair without a trial and with all of us wanting something different. Sarah also did my makeup for the day, she absolutely killed the look I was going for, it lasted all day and I felt amazing.

Sarah put me at ease straight away
Sarah is amazing! I don't usually wear make-up or do anything with my hair (besides a basic pony tail) so was very nervous about having them done for my wedding. I also have sensory issues and don't like people in my personal space. Sarah put me at ease straight away, she is so friendly and listened so carefully to my ideas and made brilliant small tweaks (with my permission) to really nail what I was looking for. I got so many compliments on the day, and it was all down to her.

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Truthfully, out of all the weddings I have been too - the ones that stand out the most were small and personal. These are the ones I remember from the relaxed Wedding preparations to enjoying people's company. My heart warms with the sound of laughter and engaging conversations. This type of wedding to me is more about love and friendship than showmanship.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, Classic, Artistic, Creative & Romantic

What about your business are you most proud of?

I think I would have to say seeing my Bridal work in print for the first time was an amazing feeling. I’m also proud of myself for managing my Hair & Makeup Career, life and all of the pros and cons that come with it! I really love it when I make people feel good. After I have finished working on them and they look in the mirror and are suddenly filled with confidence – it’s amazing to see. I do also love it when I work with a team I know well and we get amazing results for the Bride & her Bridal Partie, so everyone is happy all round!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Everyone will tell you that the day flies by, and it totally does. Make sure to carve out time to really connect with your new husband/wife throughout the day and night, even if it means building it into your itinerary. Take a few minutes to be by yourselves right after the ceremony, it’s a moment in the day that will fell like it was truly just yours. It’s so easy to be pulled in different directions throughout the day by friends, family, and vendors needing your attention, so be intentional about spending your night together.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I like how comforted a bride can be when having with her a picture of loved ones (that cant be with there on her special day) attached to the ribbons of her bouquet.. its a beautiful way of feeling close to those that are no longer with us.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Firstly I meet with the Bride for her Hair & makeup Trials, playing with ideas given to me by the Bride to gain a greater understanding of her requirements and general wedding vibe. I join the Bride at her venue/home on her wedding morning to implement her chosen styles (tweaking according to trial findings) for her and her Bridal Partie.

What do you love most about your job?

I'm extremely passionate about helping others look their best. As a Hair & Makeup Artist I have the opportunity to help Brides & clients achieve their beauty goals. Whether they want to enhance their natural beauty or improve on an imperfection, I love revelling in the transformation process watching the confidence with their new look blossom.

What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?

Apply more blusher than you may usually wear. To avoid looking washed out in the wedding photos and against a white dress, build a little extra colour on your cheeks to ensure a healthy, radiant complexion – every inch the blushing bride.

How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?

For most brides, one of the most enjoyable parts of the wedding morning is getting pampered with your bridal party. It’s a time to bond and enjoy each other’s company as well as a bit of pampering! Booking a professional hair and makeup artist, and ensuring you schedule plenty of time for them to do their work. This will allow you to relax and really enjoy the experience, as well as looking your radiant best!

What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?

Preparation is key; 1 – Drink a LOT of Water. Make your skin glow for REAL, not just shimmery highlighter 2 – Avoid Sun Damage.and use SPF as part of your daily routine 3 – Invest in Great Skincare 4 – Get Regular Facials 6 – Tanning 7 – Consider Lash Extensions 8 – Consider Hair Extensions 9 – Don't Forget About the Groom
