Hair and Make-up by Gabrielle

Gabi and team did hair+makeup for myself and my bridesmaids for my wedding. Her communication prior, flexibility for trial dates and organisation on the day was all fantastic. Even better was she recommend specific skincare products (I have dry+eczema prone skin) to use prior to the day to optimize it - it worked and I still use them now!! My hair and makeup was perfect and lasted the whole day. She was kind and caring and put my nerves at ease. I would recommend her and her team to everyone. Thank you Gabi!

I knew all about having to book ahead for our venue and catering, but hadn't even thought about hair & make up until prompted by my friends. I was super lucky that Gabi was available on our chosen date. She was very responsive and patient answering my many (clueless) questions, and chatted me through what would work best with my hair and outfit. Her suggestions on how to involve my niece who was my flower girl were exactly what I was looking for, so that was another worry off my mind.

Gabi was very organised and professional, recommending a skincare routine to follow in the run up to the wedding. She also provided clear instructions on how to prepare my hair the day before, and sent reminders of the timings.

On the day, I was able to relax as I knew that I was in her capable hands. My niece also enjoyed her first experience of having her hair and make up done professionally! Thanks Gabi for being part of our special day. Highly recommended.

I'm so glad that Gabi was part of our wedding day. Aside from her amazing work, Gabi was kind and attentive, and created a calm and relaxing atmosphere in the morning for the bridesmaids and me.

Gabi really listened to what I wanted, and helped me to feel the most beautiful and confident I have ever felt - thank you.

I honestly couldn't have asked for a better hair and make-up artist. My bridesmaids and I adored her - I would strongly recommend Gabi.

Thank you!

Gabi was such a joy to work with. She went above and beyond to ensure my wedding hair and makeup were exactly what I envisioned, even though the hairstyle I asked for was a little unusual. Gabi made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day, and her warmth and calm, professional demeanour really helped ease my nerves. My hair and makeup were perfect and lasted all night (even the strong winds outside didn’t move my veil or ruin my hair!) and I was getting compliments all day. I couldn’t have asked for a better hair and makeup artist for my big day!

Gabi made my wedding day preparations truly special, I felt like a princess and got so many compliments! Gabi is a true professional, she is dedicated and has great attention to detail. I was a bit nervous about having makeup done as I don’t wear much makeup in general but Gabi made me feel so comfortable and also taught me so much about makeup! Cannot recommend enough. If you are looking for an airy and natural look - Gabi is your person! Thank you so much Gabi 💕

I don't think I can speak highly enough of Gabi (and Rebecca too)! We were very last minute in planning hair and makeup for our big day, and Gabi made it go so smoothly. They managed to fit 4 people's worth in a single morning, and we all have said it's the best we've ever looked!
We all were blown away by their skills, by how friendly and welcoming they were which put all of us at ease, and just how incredible they made us feel! We were like ourselves but better! Plus how long it lasted too! I was outside in an October breeze for a couple of hours and no one would have ever known I'd been outside.

We all have sensitive skin too and we've all said how nice our skin has been after, with no breakouts like we normally get! Even the small detail of how easy it was to get off without scrubbing our skin raw at the end!

Gabi even came to my rescue getting an earring in!

Basically Gabi is incredible, and I thank her massively for getting me looking like I did for our wedding day!

Huge thank you to Gabi & Modi for doing the makeup and hair for myself, my sister, my mum, and my mother-in-law on my wedding day. We were all so pleased with the results, and you really captured each of our individual styles perfectly. Everything looked beautiful, and we felt amazing throughout the day. An excellent job — thank you so much!

I am a wedding planner so I work with a lot of artists. Gabi was a constant professional, punctual, prepared for any situation a so caring about her high quality of work. She was flexible throughout the wedding day to support the bride. From the outset of working together, followed by providing the trial and wedding day make up Gabi was a shinning star and a sea of professionals. On top of this she was incredibly talented and made the bride feel beautiful. The hair and Make up were flawless and the bride was so happy with her look. I am so lucky to have found such an incredible talent and proffesional in one neat package, I cannot wait to recommend her for me next bride!

My experience with Gabi has been amazing from very first communication through to my trial and wedding day. She understood exactly what I was after in my trial and helped me with decisions about style, lashes etc. She made me feel incredibly beautiful and confident on my wedding day whilst still looking like myself. Amazingly, my hair and makeup stayed in place all night, despite lots of dancing! Gabi and her team also did the hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and others in my wedding party (10 in total!) and I really appreciate her flexibility and help in arranging this for us, doing different hair and makeup to suit their individual styles. We had such a wonderful time with Gabi and her team in the morning of the wedding and everyone was incredibly happy with how they looked. I would 100% recommend Hair and Make-up by Gabrielle to other future brides. Thank you, Gabi!

Gaby and her team provided such a wonderful service. I was so pleased with my hair and makeup. I truly felt like such a beautiful bride. I was nervous bride and Gabi provided such great attention to detail and dedication in her work. Thank you very much for all your hard work.

As I don’t wear a lot of makeup, I was nervous about looking and feeling my best on my wedding day. Gabi made me feel so comfortable and after a few trials we found a look that was perfect for me, natural but pretty, I felt great but still true to my own style. She also did makeup for my teenage niece and made her feel so special. Thank you! Xx

Gabi is exceptionally talented. You really will be putting yourself in the safest most capable hands on one of the most important days of your life where you want to look amazing. I was completely overwhelmed with my first look in the mirror, Gabi had created the most beautiful look for me. I have quite oily skin but my makeup was finished at 1pm and I went to bed at 3am and it was all still in tact despite dancing the night away too. One very happy bride

Thank you Gabrielle for making me and my bridal party feel so so beautiful. You made the morning of the wedding just as special as the rest of the day. I will never forget the confidence you gave me!

For context, I was a Canadian bride getting married in England (husband's home country), so I had zero leads on who to hire-on for hair and make-up for my big day.

As you can imagine, I had to heavily (exclusively, really) rely on reviews as I wasn't able to try anyone out beforehand. I can tell you there is a reason Gabi is rated so highly!!

Being in another country and having to navigate vacation time, I was anxious on whether or not I would be able to have a hair and make-up trial. Gabi was more than accommodating when I needed my trial to be in October... for my June wedding. As soon as I met her, I just knew I had found my perfect fit.

Fast forward to our wedding day, Gabi and her team arrived exactly as scheduled and brought the absolute BEST energy!! Being that my trial was so far in advance, I was so impressed that Gabi remembered my entire vision. I can't even describe the feeling I had when she finished my bridal look, she seriously is the best at what she does - I couldn't even look in the mirror without tearing up, I looked so stunning and it was exactly how I imagined my wedding look. I honestly can't thank her enough.

When you book with Gabi, you are truly getting the best. She is so incredibly passionate about what she does, and will make sure your look is absolutely perfect.

Gabi and her team did the makeup for a friend’s wedding, and I knew I wanted to work with her too. I had eight bridesmaids and my mum in my bridal party, and most of them were having hair and makeup, so it was a big job! Gabi planned everything in advance down to the last detail and she was such a calm, friendly (but efficient) presence on the day. I am not used to wearing much make-up and I absolutely loved the look she created for me; she made all my features stand out and made my skin look amazing, and she created so much amazing volume and texture in my hair! She is a lovely, warm person and an amazing makeup artist and hair stylist. My bridesmaids had a range of different hairstyles, from pony tails to up dos, and they all looked stunning. I can’t recommend Gabi and her team highly enough!
