The absolute best!

Dren did hair and makeup for myself, mum and bridesmaids for my wedding. She was AMAZING throughout the whole process and made me feel like an absolute princess on my wedding day. We had a great trial so I felt super confident on the big day! On the morning of my wedding Dren was just like having another one of the girl gang there! She chatted to everyone and joined in making everyone feel super comfortable. Afterwards everyone said how amazing she was. She is such a professional and I would recommend her to everyone!

Wonderful!

Dren was so wonderful from start to finish. My trial put my mind at ease straight away - she was so easy to talk to and so professional. I felt so relaxed when I left my trial, knowing I was in safe hands. On my wedding day, Dren arrived on time with a big smile on her face, she kept me relaxed all morning. She did myself, my Mum and 3 bridesmaid’s hair and makeup all in amazing time and to a brilliant standard. We couldn’t have been happier. Thank you so much, Dren, for making me feel the most beautiful I have ever felt!

For a calm wedding morning

Dren gave me the hair and make up that I hoped for and listened to my requests. She also did my two bridesmaids. Dren added a calming effect on the wedding morning and she was very laid back as to how it went.

Amazing Wedding Hair Stylist

Wow!!! Where do I begin, Dren is the nicest, most patient, genuine and talented hair stylist I had ever come across. I am so grateful to have found Dren amongst a sea of endless suppliers! From the minute I booked with her, she always responded to questions rapidly and put my concerns at ease. I was really worried about my hair for the wedding as I have naturally curly hair and wanted to ensure it was looked after correctly and Dren really did this! She was so amazing with not only me but my whole bridal party and mums too. She is a true reflection of what a good hair stylist should be and I am forever grateful for how beautiful she made me look on our wedding day. Thank you SO much!!

Dren is incredible!

Your makeup and hair artist is such a big part of your wedding day. They spend the whole morning with you and your closest, getting you all settled and prepped for heading out. Dren became a hugely calming influence on me on my wedding day. Her bubbly personality mixed with her talented hair and makeup artistry is a recipe for the most perfect prep experience I could have wished for. I struggle with sensory overload and Dren was so accommodating with this, allowing me to have breaks and checking in with me. I couldn't have wished for more!

Beautiful hair and make up

Dren was so lovely throughout the process. She was professional, quick to reply and very accommodating. I had hair and make up done for myself and 4 others including my mum, my sister and two my nieces.

My hair is naturally curly and it can be a handful! it was a worry for me to find someone who could manage mine and my bridesmaid's hair. Dren was amazing at listening to all our hair needs and I absolutely loved all the styles she created for us. It lasted all day and did not budge, without feeling crispy or crunchy.

We also had our make up done and my nieces loved having someone professional do it. One is 10 and had very little done but, Dren still made her feel like a princess. Te other is 15 so had a bit more of an adult look but not too much.

Can't recommend her enough. Thank you so much xx

10/10 hair and makeup

Dren straight away put me at ease on my trial and made me feel so excited about my look for the wedding. She did hair and makeup for me, my mum and 3 bridesmaids and was able to suit all of our different complexions and styles perfectly and it all held out, even after hours of dancing! She was so lovely and an absolute joy to have involved in my wedding day. Would highly recommend!

So talented and such a lovely person!

I am so pleased to have found Dren to do hair and makeup for my wedding day.

At the trial Dren was so patient and happy to spend as long as needed to make any modification or suggestions, ensuring we were both happy. She really listened to preferences and vision and tailored it all perfectly.

On the wedding day itself Dren worked tirelessly to get myself and 3 bridesmaids ready. We were all so pleased with our looks and they lasted all evening, despite it being the hottest day of the year!

Would recommend Dren to everyone, so talented but also such a beautiful person - thank you so much!

Couldn't have asked for more!

I hired Dren for my wedding in September 2022 and I cannot fault her at all!

Dren did my make up exactly as I asked and it stayed on perfectly all day & night - as did my bridesmaids! Same for our hair - I also used fresh flowers in our hair which Dren accommodated with no problems.

Dren was so lovely and it was a pleasure to have her with us the morning of the wedding!

Thank you so much, Dren

Absolutely amazing!

Dren was absolutely the best hair and make up artist I could have asked for on our wedding day. The morning of your wedding is such an intimate thing and Dren absolutely fitting into it. During my trial Dren was so receptive to my ideas and really made me feel at ease about discussing my vision for my wedding morning. Dren had done my hair and make up before when I was a bridesmaid and I knew then she was who I wanted to do my bridal make up. Dren has done mine and my two close friends bridal make up and I would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Dren for making me feel the most beautiful I have ever felt! Emma

Beautiful hair and make up

I'm so glad I chose Dren to be the hair and make-up artist on my wedding day. She really listened to what I wanted during the consultation and developed a natural and sophisticated make-up look that matched my colouring perfectly. She was a joy to have as part of our bridal crew on the morning itself and was such a kind, calming presence. My hair and make-up stayed looking the same all day and night - which was particularly impressive given the 36 degree heatwave conditions!
