Alexandra Wedding Belles- the dream wedding glam team!
Offering hair and make up in one team was such a bonus for me! I was so pleased with the final look and it lasted ALL day. We had a busy morning with 5 Bridesmaids and Mother of the Bride but Helen, Rachel & the team helped made us feel relaxed and everyone looked incredible. Little touches like the lipstick & help with an emergency glam kit just helped make me feel prepared for the day.
Thank you so much, I couldn’t recommend them more!

Rachel did my hair for my August wedding and was amazing. She brought a great vibe to the morning. My hair & all the bridesmaids looked beautiful and I would 100% recommend booking. She even helped with some of the organisation and chaos the morning of, going above and beyond to help on the day.

100% recommend! The perfect experience
So happy I went with Alexander Wedding Belles! As someone who doesn't wear much make up I has a lot of questions and was bit nervous. Helen was amazing she really cared that I was completely happy and she made me feel so confident.
The wedding morning was so relaxed and fun she made myself & bridesmaids look absolutely perfect. She listened to exactly what I wanted and I could not have been happier with all our looks. She had great advice and tips that were really helpful especially on timings for the day.
I would highly recommend to anyone! Thank you Helen X

Rachel was beyond exceptional. Not only did she make me feel like my most beautiful self, but she also put me completely at ease and got my wedding day off to the best start. She really is an artist in every sense of the word, and I cannot recommend her enough to all future brides out there!!!

Amazing hair and make up
From the trial to the wedding day, Rachel was amazing and went the extra mile. My hair and make up looked incredible and I felt so confident on the big day. Rachel also really put me at ease on the morning while we were getting ready. Thoroughly recommend!

The best wedding planning decision I made!
The best decision I made as part of the wedding planning process! From start to finish Rachel and Helen were absolutely brilliant and made you feel so welcome and comfortable. On the wedding day, they were punctual, SOO helpful and caring, even down to making sure I’d eaten, and really helped to create a calm but exciting atmosphere in the getting ready room, not to mention making us all look and feel incredible. Nothing was too much with the changes we made after the trial, communication was great throughout and I would absolutely recommend to anyone! Thank you so so much!! X

10 stars!!
If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would! From my very first enquiry to even after the big day, Rachel and her team were nothing short of incredible. Her talent is undeniable, and she made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process.
The trial alone was amazing—it left me so excited and reassured for the wedding. I don’t usually wear much makeup, and I was nervous about not looking or feeling like myself. But Rachel worked her magic and made me feel like the most beautiful version of me. I looked perfect.
On the day itself, Rachel had everything planned to perfection. She organised all the timings and was always on hand to help, going above and beyond—from tidying the getting-ready room to even helping me with my garter! She offered thoughtful advice, kept the morning calm and fun, and made sure everything ran like clockwork.
I’m so thankful I was able to book both hair and makeup with Rachel—it made the whole experience so easy and seamless.
