Beautiful wedding make-up

Elaine did the most beautiful make-up for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding last summer. We all loved our make-up and it lasted all day. It was lovely to have her there on the wedding morning and she created a calm, relaxed vibe. I also had two amazing facials and lash lifts with Elaine before my hen do and wedding, which made my skin and lashes look incredible! Would highly recommend.

Fantastic in every way

Elaine was brilliant from booking, to me having to reschedule multiple times due to covid, to getting my brows looking fantastic prior to the wedding, then smashing out all my girls and making them look absolutely stunning all day long! Couldn't recommend Elaine higher. She's phenomenal.

Elaine is the absolute best

From start to finish Elaine was extremely accommodating. Having Elaine’s fun, calming presence the morning of the wedding was just what my bridesmaids & I needed. Elaine is so good at enhancing natural features & making you feel the best version of yourself.

Brilliant from start to finish

I booked Elaine as my MUA for my wedding in May 2023. From our first conversation to the day of the wedding Elaine was warm, welcoming, professional and clearly knew her stuff! I booked in for 3 dermaplaning sessions on the lead up to the big day and these were brilliant. I also had a trial beforehand which was great and Elaine really put me at ease. She made the morning of the wedding so relaxing and was so kind and helpful and I feel so lucky to have had her there on the morning of the wedding. I was so pleased with my make up and I could not recommend Elaine enough!

I would book Elaine again in a heartbeat!

Elaine was recommended to me by a friend and I would book her again and again in a heartbeat. She really listened when it came to creating the make up look I was after for my wedding day. She was bubbly, approachable, reliable, helpful and not forgetting incredibly talented - I felt amazing and my make up lasted all day.

Made me feel beautiful on my wedding day.

I found Elaine on Instagram when I saw numerous photos where I loved the makeup that had been done.

Best choice I ever made!

Elaine is the only person I would recommend to do wedding make up. She made sure there was plenty of time to get everyone made up with no stresses and was also on hand to help with any other last minute bits and bobs and keeping everyone to schedule. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful and her make up left everybody glowing.

Simply the best, so talented and lovely!

I couldn’t recommend Elaine more highly. From the moment we met, I felt like my best friend had walked through the door and I knew I had chosen the best person. She relaxed and calmed me instantly , and understood exactly what I wanted. I have really sensitive skin too and she had so many options that I didn’t feel ‘awkward’. I Loved my Look and she got it better than I hoped. I didn’t want it to look like my skin was covered in layers of make up (like I often think you see in brides photos!) Elaine made me look naturally flawless! Super talented!

Absolutely amazing!

Elaine was incredible, she is super talented and has a great knowledge of make up and tailoring it to different people. She made me feel so at ease from the get-go and made me look absolutely stunning on my wedding day, along with all of my bridesmaids and my mum (who hates make up and is not afraid to speak her mind!) I would 100% recommend her to anyone that I knew who was getting married.

Everything I hoped for..

Elaine put me at ease from the first time I contacted her, she was easy to communicate with and explained the usual processes to me. At my trial she took so much time to get to know me and make sure I was happy at every stage. On the day I was a nervous wreck and Elaine exuded a calm confidence that helped me so much. She made every one of my bridal party feel beautiful and gave everyone time to make sure they felt their best. I have never felt more beautiful and I cannot thank you enough.
