    100% recommend

    I booked Gemma for hair and make up for myself and a mix of hair/make up and both for some of my bridesmaids. From the preview, she really took the time to get to know my style and the vision I was going for. As someone who doesn’t wear make up often, Gemma made me feel so relaxed, comfortable and beautiful by keeping it natural but elevated. I have sensitive skin and Gemma was so careful with what products we could use that wouldn’t cause a flare up. On the day itself, Gemma was such a calm energy and her timings were bang on.
    All of my bridesmaids felt amazing with the looks they went for!
    I wish I could get my hair done by Gemma everyday!

    Fabulous hair and make-up

    Gemma and her team provided hair and make-up for myself, my mother, and my four bridesmaids for my wedding. Gemma listened to exactly what I wanted and helped create my vision, responding flexibly to any requests and adjustments after the trial. Gemma and her team were very personable and fit right into our morning helping us all feel relaxed, and importantly, we were ready on time!

    Couldn’t Recommend Enough

    Gemma was genuinely one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day. From the moment she arrived, she brought such a calm, friendly energy that immediately put me at ease. She made me feel beautiful, and she somehow managed to keep the whole morning running smoothly despite how large my wedding party was. Her schedule kept everything on track and eased any anxieties.

    Choosing a hair and makeup artist felt really overwhelming, I didn’t know where to start with my decision. I’d messaged a few MUAs but Gemma stood out right away. She was so friendly, kind, reassuring, and her work is absolutely stunning.

    My bridal party looked incredible, and everyone kept commenting on how lovely and organised Gemma and her assistants were. I’m honestly so grateful for everything she did. If you’re thinking about booking her, do it, she’s amazing.

    Thank you, Gemma!

    Fantastic job!

    Gemma was quick to respond and communicate with me throughout the run up to our wedding.
    I’m so happy she persuaded me to wear lashes during my trial. My wedding morning was chaotic, and she remained so calm it put me at ease. She did a wonderful job, and my hair and makeup lasted all day (on a sweaty August dance floor!)
    Would highly recommend her.

    Brides book Gemma!

    Gemma is an absolutely amazing hair and makeup artist! Her natural warmth and calming presence instantly put me and my bridal party at ease. She made me feel so confident and truly beautiful on my wedding day. Gemma was super organised, she even sent me a detailed timeline of whose hair and makeup she would be doing, which made the morning run so smoothly and helped me relax as the bride. I’m forever grateful for her incredible work and would highly recommend her to any future bride!

    So happy with my wedding look

    I am so so happy with my wedding hair and make up and cant recommend Gemma highly enough

    We didn't do a trial (my choice), a risk that I dont recommend but lucky for me Gemma was excellent!

    I had given her some inspo pics for both me and my bridesmaids and she knocked it out the park

    Hair and make up lasted all day and the look in the photos is perfect!!

    Thanks so much!!

    My look was perfect, exactly how I imagined it

    It was amazing to see my look come together from the first trial to the final touch on the day. I had an idea what I wanted, Gemma was really fantastic in recommending the right make-up for my skin style and age, and she did a perfect job. I looked stunning on the day and that made my day even more special. Thank you so much!!!

    Gemma is great!

    First ever time getting my make up professionally done as a bridesmaid. Gemma was so lovely. Made me feel so relaxed and made me look beautiful! She brought such a chilled but professional vibe to the wedding morning. Would definitely recommend!

    Brilliant from start to finish!

    I was going to be the UK for 2 days and made contact through Hitched. Gemma was fantastic at communicating with me throughout and was so lovely on the day. I felt at ease with her straight away and she just knew exactly what I wanted and how to achieve the look I was going for. I felt a million dollars leaving for my cousins wedding, all thanks to Gemma! Highly recommend!

    Gemma was incredible!

    From start to finish Gemma was wonderful to work with. Sending great prompts to think of in advance of the trial - within moments I felt comfortable and had such fun getting to know her as we worked out what would suit me best.

    On the morning of the wedding she was a perfect companion - her friendly and calming nature was essential, and she went out of her way to be helpful.

    Her artistic mastery is second to none. I felt the very best version of myself, beautiful and joyful - and my mother said she looked and felt a decade younger!

    Thank you Gemma!
