Wedding hair and make up

I cannot recommend Charlie highly enough for wedding hair and makeup. From the moment we started, she was calm, professional, and incredibly kind, exactly the energy I needed on such an important day. She truly listened to what I wanted and made me feel like the best version of myself, while still looking and feeling me.

My hair and makeup were flawless and held up beautifully all day and night, through happy tears, hugs, and hours of celebrating. I felt confident, comfortable, and so beautiful, which is something every bride deserves to feel on her wedding day.

Beyond her talent, Charlie was an absolute joy to be around. She helped make the morning relaxed and special, and I’m so grateful I chose her. If you’re looking for someone skilled, reliable, and genuinely wonderful, look no further, I would book her again in a heartbeat

Thank you so much!

Charlie was so wonderful! I was a bit nervous about the whole make up and hair thing but Charlie made me feel totally at ease. She listened so carefully and worked with me to create a look that made me feel just so beautiful but also completely myself. She was so kind and patient with me and was just the presence that I needed the morning of my wedding especially after only sleeping for less than an hour and feeling a bit overwhelmed and nervous! Charlie stayed right up until the moment I left for the venue and helped with extra details such as my necklace. No detail was too small. Thanks so much Charlie! I'm so grateful!

Charlie was brilliant!

I would highly recommend Charlie Griffths for your wedding hair and makeup. Charlie works with you throughout the process including a trial day. I used her for myself (the bride) and my new stepdaughter who was more than a bridesmaid - she actually walked me down the aisle! Charlie doesn't get stressed but keeps you calm and steady.
Thank you Charlie - my hair and makeup up were stunning!

Wedding hair and make up artist

I simply cannot thank Charlie enough for making me feel and look so beautiful on my wedding day. Charlie’s calm and caring approach meant I felt relaxed and comfortable in her hands from the start. She listened to exactly what I wanted and created an elegant and understated look that still felt like ‘me’. Not only did she create a stunning hair style and flawless make up, but she was also happy to help me into my wedding dress and help me with last minute finishing touches. A truly professional and incredibly special wedding hair and make up artist whom I cannot recommend highly enough.

Best Bridal Hair & Make-Up!!

Charlie was absolutely amazing!! She is super friendly, understood my vision and vibes to a T and made me feel like the most beautiful bride. She also saved the day with my previous make up and hair artist cancelling the week before my wedding but responded super quickly and said she could do my date. She was super communicative as we didn't have time for a trial and when the day came she talked me through everything she was thinking from the photos I sent and got to work! I would truly recommend Charlie to anyone!

Outstanding hair and make up!!

I couldn’t recommend Charlie highly enough, she did hair and makeup for myself and my wife at our recent wedding and everything was absolutely perfect. From the initial consultation where it felt like Charlie really took the time to understand our starting point and what we were looking for, to the trial where nothing was too much trouble and every part of the process was explained, to the actual day of the wedding where she was cool calm and collected with detailed notes of everything we had done at the trial to make sure everything was just as we planned. I couldn’t fault a single part of it. She was warm and friendly and importantly - absolutely amazing at hair and makeup! Our wedding ended up being on one of the hottest days of the year and my wife and I were blown away by how well our looks lasted right through the night. Thank you!!!

Amazing and professional

I was so happy to have found Charlie for my bridal hair and makeup. She is an expert at what she does and I felt like she really took the time to understand my wants and gave very good advice to help me feel my best. I was really nervous about it going to my trial as it wasn’t something I had experienced before, however Charlie is such a warm person and so easy to get on with that the time flew and I knew I was in good hands.
The morning of the wedding I was a bag of nerves and I really appreciated the calm space she helped create. It was the most beautiful I had ever felt and I cannot thank her enough.
Thank you so much for everything, it was a joy to have met you and I know that any bride will be lucky to have you on their special day!

Wedding Hair Trial

I had my wedding hair trial with Charlie today and it was a lovely experience from start to finish. I am an anxious bride to be, but Charlie was calming and kind which instantly put me at ease. She was professional but friendly and so easy to talk to. She also worked absolute magic on my hair! I wanted to try quite an intricate up-do and the finished design was simply stunning and just how I pictured it. She also gave lots of great advice and helpful tips. I left feeling happy and confident that my bridesmaids and I will be in very safe hands on the day.

Miracle worker 💁🏼‍♀️

Charlie was incredible hair and make up artist that I had the privilege of meeting whilst being a supporting artist for a TV series. She was so professional and excellent at giving advice of different styles to suit my hair. She made me feel so comfortable talking to her and I walked out feeling so confident with my beautiful vintage classic style upto. There wasn’t a hair out of place as she is a perfectionist. I would highly recommend Charlie to any bride or bridal party as she has a wealth of experience of many different styles and can work under pressure to make sure she gets all styles completed to a high standard under a tight time frame.

Professional and relaxing experience

From the hair trial through to the wedding day Charlie went above and beyond to give me the perfect wedding hair & make-up. She listened to what I wanted and gave great advice when I was unsure about things. She made me feel relaxed throughout and was fun to work with - I would highly recommend her.
The end result far excelled anything I could have dreamed of and Charlie was flexible with my limited availability schedule. I will be forever grateful to her for giving me the best start to my wedding day

Can't recommend Charlie enough, excellent

I was looking for a professional who offered both hair and make up for the big day. I came across Charlie on hitched. I felt confident straight away from first point of contact. Charlie had some fabulous ideas and took on board mine. I was so pleased with the results of the trial I had no doubt about booking Charlie. We spent 3 hours together at the trial which was very relaxed, so excited for our special day and feeling like a beautiful bride. Thank you Charlie

Professional, fun with great attention to detail.

Charlie made me feel comfortable and in control from the off. I was a bit nervous and unsure exactly how it would go. With time to bounce ideas, I felt I was in very capable hands and then the results only affirmed this... I was happier than i thought I could be!!
I was after a sleek look with added volume. Colour matched pieces to maximise hair, makeup Smokey, It really all came together. I was so happy for the free trial...
I immediately booked Charlie for my wedding and have not regretted it .

Beautiful wedding hair!

Charlie made me feel at ease as soon as we had our consultation. She really listened to what I had in mind and helped me work out what would suit me and the style of wedding. I wanted a Boho kind of vibe using tape hair extensions to create extra fullness and length. They colour matched perfectly and she styled my hair in to bouncy soft waves, with some strands pinned back to frame my face. I wanted a real flower crown and she worked with the florist to help achieve this.
I loved it so much, I would have that hair every day if I could!
Charlie really helped make my day special and she was so much fun to have around, she definitely helped with my nerves! I would highly recommend her. I have also seen her retro hair-ups in real life and they are stunning.
