TEN STARS - no notes!
I will struggle to qualify just how brilliant Audrey and Shannon were on our wedding day - but I’ll give it a go!
From reaching out in the initial months, to booking, to trials, to constant comms and to the wedding day itself - Audrey & Shannon were the utmost professionals. Their experience and skill were present in abundance!
They were the perfect extension to the bridal party on the day - their easy nature and comedy fit in seamlessly with the squad whilst sticking to schedule and finishing touch up with plenty of time to spare for pictures, dancing and general horsing around.
I cannot thank them enough and I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect hair and makeup combo for their wedding (or any other event!).

Perfectionists!!
First met Audrey and her sister for the trial, they were so friendly and listened to what I wanted. They made suggestions about what would work for my skin tone and encouraged me to go out my comfort zone a wee bit and I'm so glad they did. After the trial I had changed my mind for the style and they were really supportive of the change. My bridemaids all loved their hair and make up too. The hair and make up stayed in place all day without touch ups!! I was so happy with it. They were friendly, professional and did an incredible job of my hair and make up. Highly recommend!! Thanks so much

Beautiful inside and out
Audrey and Shannon were absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, Audrey was quick to respond with any questions, listened to what I wanted for my makeup for the trial and the wedding, gave excellent suggestions for my skin which I will continue to take with me in the future.
The wedding day was relaxed and enjoyable, Audrey did an amazing job with even my bridesmaids and my mother, who cried with joy when she saw her hair and makeup done as she looked 20years younger!
We all laughed, we cried, it was a lovely morning.
These ladies are beautiful inside and out, and make you feel the same. I would highly recommend them!Audrey and Shannon were absolutely fantastic!

The friendliest MUAs and easiest part of my wedding day!
I knew that I made the right choice when I met Audrey and her lovely sister Shannon on my trial day - we spent the whole trial chatting and they were both so lovely. Audrey took her time explaining what she was using and why, as well as asking questions about what I would like as we went. When I came out of the trial I felt very glam but knew I wanted to make a few changes having felt reassured by Audrey that this is what a trial is for. Audrey was so receptive and accommodating with the changes I requested and by the time my wedding day arrived I felt confident that we'd achieve the look I wanted. Audrey and Shannon made it so easy on the day and I felt so relaxed chatting to her. My bridal party all loved their glam and it was just such an easy part of the day, especially having both of them there. Having the touch up kits and skin prep beforehand was also really nice as it's not something all MUAs do. It's a no brainer knowing how much experience Audrey has and I felt confident recommending her to a friend who has now also booked.

Don’t know how to say better that 10/10
I first made contact with Audrey when struggling to find a make up artist for my wedding. From the start Audrey was nothing but friendly and helpful, she was even able to help for my brothers up coming wedding prior to mine. From the start she made me feel at ease and made my mum and me look a million dollars. She was flexible, listened to what we wanted and was happy to give little tweaks when asked. For my mum who had never had her make up done and doesn’t wear make up she gave the most perfect look!
Fast forward to my wedding I couldn’t wait to see her again, her incredibly bubbly attitude and upbeat vibe made the wedding morning so relaxed. Everyone of my bridal party had an amazing time and complimented Audrey’s skills. Audrey has the patience of a saint. Working seamlessly around a bride getting asked a million questions and having to take various phone calls throughout the morning she even stayed behind to help with footage for our wedding video with barely needing to ask. I almost feel sad I have nothing else planned with Audrey but will defiantly get in touch with her if I ever need my make up again!I first made contact with Audrey when struggling to find a make up artist for my wedding.

A wonderful experience
I had the absolute pleasure of having my makeup done by Audrey for my son’s wedding, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment I sat in her chair, she made me feel relaxed, confident, and truly special. Audrey listened carefully to what I wanted—something elegant, timeless, and camera-ready—and she delivered beyond my expectations.
My makeup looked flawless all day and night, even through happy tears and hours of celebration! She enhanced my natural features beautifully without making me feel overdone. I received so many compliments, and I genuinely felt radiant in every photo.
Audrey is not only incredibly skilled and professional, but also warm and calming—exactly the kind of person you want around on such an emotional and important day. I can’t recommend her enough.
Thank you, Audrey, for making me feel beautiful and confident on such a special day!

Highly Recommend
I highly recommend Audrey and her sister for anyone getting their hair and makeup done for their wedding.
They helped myself, my bridesmaids and mother of the bride all feel like princesses and helped me feel so very special on my big day. They were voices of calm on a morning that could have been so very stressful. They helped keep me grounded and made sure my morning started off in the best way possible. Those qualities do not come with training from their hearts and souls and I am so grateful for having them there.
Their hair and makeup styles suited all age ranges too,from teenage bridesmaids, to middle age and older. Really happy with their serviceI highly recommend Audrey and her sister for anyone getting their hair and makeup done for their wedding.

Wedding Hair and Makeup
Brilliant service from Audrey, asking what we wanted/liked and checking in as she went. She was so good with my little girl and made her feel part of the day. Extra touches with little bags for the day to top up lipstick, mints etc. were perfect.Brilliant service from Audrey, asking what we wanted/liked and checking in as she went.
