Phenomenal experience, Ieva is an artist in every way

I had a wonderful experience working with Ieva. Having seen Ieva’s work before, I knew she would be the absolute dream hair and make-up artist for my wedding.
From the trial, to the wedding day she made me feel celebrated and excited to be a bride. We tried all the looks we could think of and Ieva gave honest and expert feedback on what she thought would look best on me. This paid off on the wedding day, as one of the highlights of the whole day was seeing the complete look of hair, make-up and dress come together - this moment truly felt like the kick-off to the wedding excitement!

My bridesmaids and my mum praised the getting-ready experience, each one of them was made to feel so special and beautiful.

On top of the magic she brings in her personality and skill, Ieva was an excellent communicator throughout the process and had a clear plan of the day months ahead of the date.

I would recommend Ieva again and again - she is truly an artist and I feel very lucky to have had her be part of my wedding.

Simply perfect!

Ieva was brilliant - could not have asked for anything better! Ieva arrived perfectly on time on the morning of the wedding and instantly made me feel calm and excited. She was so lovely to me and my bridal party and made us all feel very special. Both my hair and make up were spot on and exactly what I wanted and more! Highly recommend!

Just perfect 🤍


Ieva did my hair and makeup for my wedding in August 2025 and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she was so friendly, understanding, and really listened to my vision. My trial was absolutely perfect, and I didn’t want to change a single thing for the big day.
On my wedding morning, Ieva was such a calming presence. It truly felt like having a friend in the room. She did both my hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids’, and every single one of the girls was so pleased with the results. My makeup lasted all day and night without any issues.
Thank you so much, Ieva, for making me feel so confident and beautiful on such a special day 🤍

Fantastic!

Being not a hair or makeup person, finding someone for my wedding day was daunting. But Ieva was amazing, helped me understand all my options and got me to a point where I LOVED my look on the day.
She was such a calm, relaxed, happy and dancing influence on the day itself. Can't recommend her enough!

The best of the best!

Ieva was the best!! I couldn't have dreamed of a better hair and make up artist for my wedding day. She was fun, professional, supportive, had the most incredible attention to detail and such an amazing vision. I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Ieva for taking care of me, my mum and all my bridesmaids. We love you!!

Would definitely recommend!! 10/10

Ieva was friendly and professional right from the start. Her work was great. I was initially worried about colour matching my skin but she did an amazing job and her team was able to also to provide the same quality of work for my bridesmaids. I don't plan to get married again but if I did i would book her again.

Just the lady you need on your wedding day!

I can’t recommend Ieva enough! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding, and it was absolutely perfect. Both my hair and makeup lasted the entire day and night without a touch-up, and I truly felt like a princess. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so beautiful.

Beyond her incredible skill, she was such a calm and friendly presence on the morning of my wedding — exactly the kind of energy you want around you on such an important day. I’m so grateful for her talent and professionalism, and I would book her again in a heartbeat.

The most incredible MUA!

I cannot recommend Ieva highly enough! From the moment we first spoke, I knew I was in expert hands. On my wedding day, she brought such calm, warm, and professional energy, it was exactly what I needed amidst the excitement and nerves.

Her talent is truly exceptional. She created the most stunning hair and makeup look that was everything I had hoped for and more. I felt so confident, radiant, and truly myself, just the most polished and glowing version. She also worked her magic on my bridal party, and every single person looked and felt amazing.

What sets Ieva apart is not only her incredible skill but her attention to detail, ability to listen, and the way she made the entire process feel effortless. My look lasted the entire day and night.

Thank you, Ieva, for making me feel so beautiful on the most important day of my life!

A Great Choice!

Ieva was a great choice for hair and make up for my wedding day. From booking, to trial, to the wedding day, communication was clear and easy. Ieva was great on the day, we all looked amazing and she was so friendly and professional. We had some struggles with my bridesmaids doing up the corset back of my wedding dress and Ieva was straight in to help and make sure everything was done right, even though she didn't need to.

10/10 would recommend Ieva to anyone looking for a great hair stylist/make up artist for your wedding.

Amazing!!!

I would highly recommend Ieva! She did my bridal hair, as well as my bridal party’s, and we all absolutely loved it. It looked beautiful, and lasted all day (which doesn’t happen often for me!) Ieva was easy to communicate with, and during my trial we tried a couple of different styles, which helped me to choose what I wanted on the day. The way my hair turned out was exactly as I envisioned it ☺️

Ieva is incredible!

Ieva is so talented. I’ve never looked better. I walked down the aisle and my husband just said “wow” and the celebrant said “that says it all”. To have my usually very quiet husband say that said something about Ievas skills! All the wedding party also loved their looks and people are asking me where we all got our hair and makeup done so they can book Ieva too. People are still taking about my hair too! Amazing to be able to have both hair and makeup done by the same person and to such an incredible level of talent. Thank you Ieva my day wouldn’t have been half as good without you. Ash x

Nobody better

Ieva is an incredible woman. She is as smart as she is talented so you can get glammed up and have an incredible conversation at the same time. She’s a good laugh and makes sure you get what you want and feel comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough.

Made my day!

I couldn’t recommend Ieva highly enough - I felt the best I ever have on my wedding day - not only the end result of my hair and make up but how comfortable she made me feel throughout the whole process - initial communication, seeing her work, the trial and then the final event - just wow! Thank you so so much for everything!

An amazing hair & make-up artist

Ieva is an incredible hair and makeup artist! I couldn't recommend her enough! She is very friendly and professional. Her expertise really shows, and her attention to detail is outstanding. She fully understood my vision from the beginning ( at the trial), and on the wedding day everything she did was more than perfect. She made me feel at ease at all times. I would absolutely choose her again)
