Wedding Make Up

I would recommend Laura a billion % she is lovely, calm and very helpful about giving advice on your make up.
I have had make up done in past and found the people doing it pushy and bulshy, you absolutely get none of this from Laura. The moment she walked through my front door for the trial until the end of the wedding morning she was friendly and understanding. Nothing was too much trouble for her.
Laura is an absolute star 🌟

Perfect wedding morning!

Laura was such a pleasure to have in the morning to help me and my bridal party get ready. She did a makeup trial at my house and then came to my hotel on the big morning! The makeup look was exactly what I was hoping for and looked amazing all day. Thanks so much for being a part of my special day!

Mother of Groom

I was delighted with my make up done by Laura - both the practice and the actual day. I was also pleased to work with someone so reliable and punctual and flexible. It makes all the difference! Thank you Laura. I recommend you unreservedly.

Easy, flexible, high quality service

Laura was fantastic - she helped a friend and I get ready as guests at a wedding and everyone spent the day complimenting our make up! She was extremely responsive, flexible and easy to work with - she even gave us little touch up kits to take to the wedding with us! I wouldn’t hesitate to call Laura again if we have another wedding in the area!

Flawless soft glam that lasted all day 🤍

Laura did my makeup for a wedding recently and I was so happy with how it turned out. I wanted something soft and glowy that still felt like me, and she got it absolutely perfect.

She was so lovely and easy to chat to, which made the whole experience feel really relaxed from start to finish. My makeup lasted all day and night without needing loads of touch ups, and I had so many people asking who had done it.


I felt so confident wearing it and it looked amazing in photos too. I’d definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking for beautiful makeup for a wedding or special occasion 🤍

I had my makeup done by Laura and I honestly couldn’t have been happier with it.

I had my makeup done by Laura and I honestly couldn’t have been happier with it. She completely understood the look I was going for and made me feel like the best version of myself – still natural, but so polished and glowing.

She’s so calm and friendly which made the whole experience really enjoyable, and she took so much care with skin prep so my makeup sat beautifully all day. I had so many compliments and it photographed amazingly too.

I’d 100% recommend Laura to anyone looking for a talented, reliable makeup artist. I’ll definitely be booking again 🤍

I would really recommend Laura if you’re looking for a talented, calm and helpful MUA!

Laura did the makeup for my Wedding party a couple of weeks ago. She came recommended to me by a friend and I’m so pleased I went with the recommendation.
Communication was fast and I never had to chase for answers, which is such a relief when organising a big event.
She made the morning really relaxed and we were running ahead of time all morning. My MIL, 4 bridesmaids and myself felt properly pampered! The makeup was soft and glowy and not cakey or overdone. Laura tailored each makeup to emphasise our best features and listened if we wanted more/less. Nothing was too much trouble and I was so pleased that it didn’t budge all day and into the night too!
I would really recommend Laura if you’re looking for a talented, calm and helpful MUA!

My go-to MUA

Laura’s been the MUA for a couple of weddings now that I’ve been lucky enough to be a bridesmaid for. Every time she creates flawless looks that make you feel amazing in yourself, comfortable on your skin and (importantly) last all day. Laura has always been so friendly, patient, kind and attentive - she instantly makes everyone around her feel at ease and has always made the brides feel super special. Lots of Laura’s recommendations have now made their way into my everyday make up bag. Thank you, Laura! Xx
