From start to finish Kay was amazing with my 5 bridesmaids and myself. She had lots of patience and ideas when they were picking hairstyles and offered advice when needed on hair care. The girls all looked amazing and they had so many compliments I would definitely recommend.

Perfect hair and make up for a perfect day

I would like to thank Kay and Lucy for doing mine, my mums and best friend’s hair and make up for my wedding day.
We all felt so comfortable with the team and they made us all feel beautiful for my wedding day.
My hair was certainly the talking point of the wedding and I would recommend Kay for bridal hair- she has won awards for a reason!
Thank you again for ensuring all was perfect for the big day including dressing me, putting on my jewellery and perfume.

Perfect hair and make up

Kay has been amazing! I had only a vague idea of my hair and make-up, and from there she did great and even improved from trial to the big day. Had a lot of compliments. On the day during preparation, she was professional, and on time. I highly recommend her.

Amazing skill, communication and friendliness

We chose Kay to do the hair for my daughter's wedding at Wentbridge House. She was very responsive, very friendly and flexible when it came to pre-wedding trials. It was great that she had worked at the hotel before and with the photographer ( Martin Hillary - excellent ). She knew the process and put our minds at rest and this is in addition to her excellent skills with hair. Do not hesitate!

Perfect Hair and makeup

I would highly recommend Kay Binnersley Bridal Hair and makeup. I was so pleased with the end result for both me and my 5 bridesmaids. She listened to what I wanted, advised and guided me a long the way, was so very calm and super organised on my big day , I was in good hands! I did have a hair and make up trial with Kay so felt at ease on the day , she had pictures and notes from the trial and everything was absolutely perfect. My make up on the day was done by Lucy and wow she did a fabulous job , and I even felt confident enough to try lashes for the first time.
I can't thank the wonderful team enough x

Two Amazing Ladies!

Myself and my wife got married in September last year. From the beginning, Kay and Lucy were so reassuring and professional, whilst having my hair done, it was like I’d known them both my whole life, not just a matter of months. The level of excellence and talent displayed that day was incredible. My wife and her bridal party and hair and makeup done, so it was a hectic day, but Kay and Lucy never saw it as a challenge, they were happy to be apart of the day with us, they felt like family. I am so grateful for them, they showed up on time, we had a hair trial with them that was a great thing as I decided to change my hair style for on the day, but Kay was very adaptable and full of ideas, they eased our minds with their positive attitude and defiantly calmed my nerves. The photo shows just how beautiful the bridal party and my wife looked, and they were all very happy with Kay and Lucy’s hard work. Thank you to you both, you’ll never understand how grateful we are for you both ❤️

Simply the best

After a very stressful experience with a previous hair and make up artist we had originally booked I left it until only a few months before the wedding to find someone new, well when people say everything happens for a reason they are correct, I am so glad that I stumbled across Kay on hitched and knew from her social media portfolios that she was the artist I wanted to use, she was very accommodating when I needed a trial on a certain day due to work and managed to fit me in a few weeks later, she listened to what I had to say and how I would like my hair/makeup and executed this to a tee. One the day of the wedding Kay and Lucy came to the venue at an early time of 6.15 to start the mammoth task of the hair and make up for the bridal party, they had come with a plan and never once seemed stressed if this plan wasn’t running smoothly, they met all timings necessary for the morning to run smoothly and even stayed until I was in my dress to make sure that everything was perfect, Kay managed to calm me down when emotions got high and truly went above and beyond her role that day and I will be forever grateful for this wonderful lady! In short if you need a hair and makeup artist for a wedding or any event look no further!

Perfect and pleasant

Kay did really an amazing job on my hair done and make up on my big day. She’s so gentle and friendly to listen to what I like and my preference style. It looks exactly what I sent her a ref, good to keep checking up if I’m happy with things like color tone of make up or curl style which made it goes really well and I was really happy on how I look. Thank you Kay for being amazing and open to what I asked for. Highly recommended her for the next bride:)

Outstanding

Could have ask for someone so talented and attentive. Kay is amazing not only did kay meet our needs she even went the extra mile to get me ready aswell. Kay is so kind caring and considerate and makes you feel special there was nothing I could have asked kay for as she went above and beyond. Myself and my bridesmaids absolutely loved the results of our hair and we all love kay to bits she's friendly upbeat and keeps everything running smoothly. Could have asked for a better hair stylist for our big day. And the trial also with kay well what can I say amazing always focused and dedicated to meeting individual needs. Would not recommend anyone other than kay for ur big day or special occasion.

Amazing experience

Kay was brilliant from the start. She really listens to your ideas about what you want for your day and works with any inspiration you have. She is so thorough with the trial and ensures you are completely happy before your big day. On the day itself, Kay and Lucy were amazing. They arrived promptly and ensured we were all ready without panicking and rushing around. It was comforting to know that they were there until it was time to walk down the aisle to ensure that everything was perfectly in place. We were all so happy with our final looks, and just how comfortable they made the whole experience!

A joy to work with!

Kay was the absolute best! She did such beautiful work on myself, bridesmaids, and both mothers. Her joyful energy created the best environment for the start of the day, and her attentiveness to the details I wanted was absolutely perfect!
