    You're in safe hands

    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.

    Kind, calm, friendly and incredibly talented!

    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!

    Amazing wedding hair and makeup!

    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!

    Cannot recommend Gabi enough!

    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 💕

    Last minute star to the rescue

    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!

    Wedding Make-up and Hair

    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!

    An incredible Talent and Shining Professional

    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!

    I felt beautiful and confident on my wedding day

    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!

    Beautiful look!

    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
