About

Hello, I’m Rebecca — welcome to my page. I’m so happy you’re here, and I hope you’ve enjoyed looking through my work so far. I’d love to share a little more about myself and the style behind my work.

I’ve been working as a Makeup and Hair Artist for over 15 years across beauty, fashion, film and television. Over the years, I’ve developed a style that is inspired by the timeless elegance of old Hollywood glamour — think Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s — while still keeping the makeup soft, modern and effortlessly beautiful.

My approach is always centred around enhancing natural beauty rather than masking it. I want every bride to feel like the very best version of themselves: confident, radiant and comfortable. Creating a calm, relaxed atmosphere on the wedding morning is just as important to me as the makeup itself, and I truly love being part of those special moments with my brides and their closest family and friends.

As a neurodivergent artist myself, creating a calm and comfortable environment naturally sits at the heart of my work. I understand how important it is to feel emotionally at ease and never overwhelmed on your wedding morning, and I always strive to create a gentle, reassuring experience for everyone around me.

As an artist at heart, creativity has always been a huge part of my life. When I’m not painting faces, you’ll usually find me painting on paper or canvas. During lockdown, I rediscovered my love for art and began creating animal and pet portraits, which quickly became something I found both joyful and therapeutic. Water colour will always be my favourite medium as there’s something so soft, delicate and calming about it that I absolutely love. One day, I’d love to have my own little art studio and learn pottery too.

Thank you so much for visiting my page on Hitched and I hope to be part of your special day.

Reviews for Bridal By Rebecca Yeates

Excellent!

Rebecca was recommended to me by another supplier, and stepped in to do my wedding party’s makeup when another person let me down.

Rebecca was so lovely through the trial. I’m not a big makeup wearer and she walked me through her products and completely understood the natural look I was after. I made some tweaks and requests after the trial and she was really nice and flexible about everything.

She was perfectly on time for the day, and was so nice putting me at ease. Her assistant, Soniya was also brilliant. Absolutely would recommend Rebecca if you’re looking for wedding makeup and hair.

Highly recommend!

I am so pleased I booked Rebecca to do mine and my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding. I was slightly nervous about booking a makeup artist as I am not used to wearing full makeup but Rebecca was really helpful and put me at ease during the trial, making me feel confident for the day. On the day Rebecca and Sian who assisted were absolutely fantastic. They listened to each of us as individuals with regards to what we liked and everyone looked really lovely. I would highly recommend!
