Wedding Make Up

Katie done my make up and all of my bridal party for my wedding. I can’t recommend her enough!

From the moment she arrived at the hotel room, she made myself and my bridal party feel at ease. She’s extremely friendly and chatty which makes the whole experience such a pleasure.

She done my make up exactly how I wanted it and it lasted the whole day/ evening. This was the same for my bridesmaids and my mum too. She’s also really knowledgeable about make up, so really good if you want to ask her anything.

I’ve since used katie for occasion make up which
was also amazing! I would definitely recommend her and will continue to use her for special occasions in the future. Honestly I can’t thank her enough. 💖💖💖

Couldn't recommend enough!!

Katie was extremely quick to reply when I first got in touch via Hitched. She was really friendly and prices very reasonable. I had asked her to do the make up for my bridesmaids and she offered great advice when it came to discussing looks and styles. Katie was able to be very flexible with individual preferences with a more minimal looks for the mother of the bride too.

On the day Katie arrived and immediately it felt like she was part of the bridal party with everyone feeling extremely comfortable and chatting away with her. Personally, this stood out over everything as I genuinely believe this contributed to such a calm memorable morning before the ceremony. Honestly couldn't recommend Katie enough!

Biggest thank you and hugs again! Xx

Amazing Make Up Artist

Katie was so professional with all of my Bride Tribe. She had 6 people's makeup to do and we were all very different in how we wanted or would wear our makeup. The outcome was so beautiful and I cannot thank Katie enough for being a part of our day and being so personable to each and every one of us.

Such an attentive make up artist, would highly recommend

Katie was incredible from start to finish on my wedding morning. My make up was amazing and she took the time to listen to what I liked and didn’t like to make sure it was perfect for my special day. My bridesmaids also looked incredible. My make up lasted all day too!
