Your MUST have on any wedding!

I accidentally clicked X and now have to re-type my whole review.

For Rachel it’s worth it! Book her and you won’t regret it. Why?

I am a very tomboy bride, I don’t understand make up, it probably was quite low on my priority list.

The thought of booking it was anxiety inducing. But then I stumbled across Rachel. Which thank the lucky stars I did!

From booking to trial, the trial was at her home, which she made me feel at home.
We chatted and got to know each other more and understand my requirements (which mine personally were low, but she has the expertise and experience to truly wow you)

On the day, she was prompt given the very early start. And worked side by side with my hairdresser: she took it in her stride to work collaboratively with people she had never met before. And bounced off others energy. It was really nice to watch.

We had 7… yes 7 bridesmaids to get through! Plus my mum! All in the same room, Rachel was fun and out-going, charismatic yet calming. Everything a very stressed bride with health issues needed.

She stayed after make up was done, and helped capture some magical shots of the dress. She truly cared about being there and you being her number one that day.

I could write a book on how wonderful she is. I cannot recommend Rachel for bridal make up enough.

She turned this frog into a princess for a day, and for that, I’m eternally grateful! 🫶

Amazing hair and make up for my wedding!

Rachel has been fantastic throughout the whole process, from first contact through to the trial and the wedding day.
Her prices are competitive and real value for money considering all the care and attention she puts in her work. She even provides a touch up kit for the wedding, which I thought was a lovely idea!
She is friendly and really made me feel at ease, both during the trial and on the day of the wedding, especially considering that I don't know the first thing about make up so I was quite nervous. She used her knowledge and expertise to guide me through what the best options for my make up and hair would be, all the while staying faithful to my style preferences and the colour scheme of the wedding.
She was also lovely to my mum and grandma on the wedding day, advising them on their hairstyle and managing to reassure them even though they don't speak English!
All in all I had an extremely positive experience with Rachel and I couldn't recommend her enough :)

Fantastic!

Rachel was absolutely fantastic! We had 4 bridesmaids, 2 mums and myself to get ready on the morning of the wedding. Rachel was on time and ready to go! She even captured some great photos for us to cherish forever!
The makeup and hair lasted all day and we were so impressed with it all!
Thank you so much for everything!

Absolutely amazing! I am so glad I found Rachel!

I found Rachel through Make Me Bridal as I was struggling to find a make up artist and hair stylist for my August wedding. Thankfully, she was free on the date I needed and I couldn't be more thankful! From the first communication which was within a day of my inquiry, all the way through to post-wedding, Rachel has been warm, professional and easy to communicate with for make up and hair for myself and my mother.

Our trial was very relaxing and Rachel listened to everything we asked for, especially considering myself and my mother have very different styles! What I thought I wanted for my hair and what I ended up with were very different, and Rachel handled my indecision with ease. I went from an up style to a half up/half down on the day with some additional minor adjustments on the day. My make up was flawless and I received so many compliments about it both after the trial and on my wedding day. I was keen to look like me but have make up to look a bit more glamorous, and she achieved this so well. I loved both aspects and really felt extra special.

Rachel is such a friendly person, easy to talk to and incredibly knowledgeable. We got some extra make up tips and recommendations, and loads of beautiful pictures from the wedding day. I am not sure when I would need a MUA and hair stylist again but I know that when I do, Rachel will be my first call. I am so glad our dates matched up! Thank you for how you made me feel, and how you made me look!

Delighted with my hair and make up!

I felt completely blessed to have Rachel help myself, my four bridesmaids, mum and flower girl get ready for my July wedding. From the enquiry stages, Rachel was professional and responsive and she ensured that she knew what I was hoping to achieve with my wedding look. I loved Rachel’s looks because of how natural her brides looked in their pictures and this was something that was important to me! I felt a bit clueless at times because make-up or hairstyles aren’t a part of my daily routine but Rachel was so patient and helpful guiding me in the right direction and I was so grateful for this because on the day I felt like an actual princess! We had such a relaxed morning getting ready and it was exactly like having a friend over to get ready with- I enjoyed every second of our conversations! It was just so fun!! Additionally, Rachel has so much knowledge and advice to help the morning of the wedding go smoothly! She even helped my bridesmaids do up my dress and took such valuable pictures of the morning when our photographer was away with the groomsmen! All the bridesmaids looked incredible and were so pleased with both their hair and make up. I was so so pleased to have chosen Rachel for my wedding day

Fantastic explanation

I really can’t speak more highly of Rachael she was so helpful and professional. My day really wouldn’t have been the same with out her. She just has such a real and calming personality she was so reassuring and went above and beyond with helping me with everything not just my hair and makeup and tips to help me through the day. My hair and makeup lasted all day I was married at 2pm and didn’t get home until 12;30am the next day and it was still absolute perfection when I got home bear in mind it was 26 degrees that day. thank u so much Rachel

Fantastic wedding hair and makeup

At my hair and makeup trial Rachel really listened to what kind of look I would like to achieve. On the wedding day she made me relax and we spent a lovely morning chatting while getting ready. I was very happy with both my hair and makeup and Rachel stayed with me until the wedding and gave me a little touch up kit.
On the day I was let down by others and Rachel helped me get dressed and stay calm. If it wasn't for her I would have had a major panic attack.
I cannot recommend this lady enough!

Unsure about booking hair and make up? Book Rachel!

I was undecided on whether I wanted to book my hair and make up as I'm usually a natural no-make up wearer, and was keen to look 'like myself' on my wedding day. When I started speaking to Rachel I realised why so many people trust her on their wedding day - Rachel took several hours to talk me through potential ideas I had during our consultation, going back and forth between lipstick shades and hairstyles as I truly had no clue what I wanted. She made a number of recommendations but never pushed me to a particular style, and helped me find a final look that felt true to who I was, helped me feel confident and beautiful and on top of that lasted for hours on a very hot day and after loads of jumping, dancing, and many many dog kisses. Not only is she very skilled in her craft, but she's also a lovely person and incredibly patient. Truly, if you are unsure about whether or not to book hair and make up, do yourself a favour and book Rachel, you won't regret it.

Helped Make The Day

As someone who does not do fuss or glamour with hair and make up, she made me feel so special and the results were just right.

Totally recommend

Rachel was so lovely and was so glad to have her as part of the preparations on our big day. She is friendly and chatty and put me at ease. She looked at my photos for inspiration and recreated a look we both agreed on. She was so lovely on the day, helping me look and feel beautiful and stuck around to do final touches, as well as help my sister who was nervous about putting in my veil. She also did the make up for my mum, which is a task in itself and she is not girly at all, but yet a million dollars. Thank you Rachel

Absolutely fantastic

Rachel was amazing during the whole process, from giving me advice on skincare to being a calming supporter during the morning. She took behind-the-scenes photos and videos, including a video of my first look, and was such an important part of my morning. Most importantly, she helped me get my skin into an amazing condition before the wedding, and then made me look incredible, but still myself on the day itself.

She also did a great job keeping my friends and mum comfortable on the day - they all looked fantastic and they were all thrilled with their looks.

Thank you so much Rachel. I am so glad I booked you and I couldn't have asked for more.

Absolutely amazing!

Oh my goodness! I don't think there is enough space for me to rave about Rachel enough!

She is so lovely, so professional and so incredibly amazing at her job. She did mine, my maid of honour, and my bridesmaids make up as well as my hair.

The morning was spent chatting and getting ready, so relaxed! Rachel made us all feel comfortable and we had the best time. Our make up (and my hair) lasted all day and night, and this was the hottest day of the year (9th Sept)!

Everything was exactly as I has envisioned and I can't thank, or recommend, Rachel enough ❤️

Rachel is fantastic!

Rachel is a superstar! I went into the process without much of an idea of what I wanted for my hair and makeup, and she helped me to figure out what would look good on me and what would work with my hair.
She is super friendly and was such a lovely presence on my wedding day while we were getting ready, and captured some lovely moments for us (she is a great person to have there if you’re not having a photographer capturing the getting ready part!).
Rachel and Melissa are great with all types of hair, worked wonders on my natural 2b curl hair, but also my friends with extensions and my 70 year old mum with thin short hair.

Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for an all in one super star hair and makeup artist!

Delighted with my bridal hair and makeup

Rachel is friendly and professional and really made me feel at ease during my trial and on the day. My makeup and hair looked exactly as I had wanted and stayed great throughout the day. She uses high quality brands and was able to adapt to meet my bridesmaids' needs on the day too. I'm glad I chose her to do my hair and makeup!

Fantastic experience with Rachel

Rachel was a fantastic hair and make up artist for our wedding. She was super friendly, communicative, helpful and very talented. She really listened to what I was hoping to achieve and helped to re-create my ideal hair and make up for my wedding over my trial and then on the big day. She uses good quality products and is very good at recreating looks from Pinterest etc. Me and the bridesmaids were all very happy and would highly recommend. Thank you Rachel!
