    Wedding Day makeup

    Emma did my wedding makeup in May 2024. Right from my first email request Emma was helpful and responded quickly. I felt nervous the day of my trial run but I needn’t have worried as Emma made me feel relaxed and confident and she has amazing knowledge of all the different brands and products which just totally baffles me. On the day Emma arrived on time and it was like meeting up with an old friend and having a chat and laugh so I felt truly chilled. I was thrilled with my makeup and I felt very beautiful and I absolutely loved the false eyelashes, wouldn’t have thought I had any on. I would have no hesitation in recommending Emma, she’s a star.

    The best!!!

    Emma was hired to do my bridal makeup and that of my bridesmaids back in March this year (2024). Emma was absolutely amazing!! She came to my house where we had a trial beforehand. No detail was spared when at the end I decided to change which type of lashes used and straight away she made the changes until I was happy with the final look. She took notes of everything used and when the big day rolled around Emma knew exactly what she was doing. The morning of my wedding was, as you can imagine, a very emotional one and Emma helped keep me so calm and comforted through those quiet tears to myself and the big tears with all of my girls around me. She is so warm, encouraging, your perfect hype girl and her knowledge in her field is just amazing. The makeup felt so lightweight and lasted from 7am until the early hours of the following day!! I cannot fault her, I am so grateful I chose her for my big day and I’d put all my trust in her again and again and again. Thankyou Emma!!!!

    Emma was Amazing!

    Emma was recommended to me by a friend and I'm so happy she was! The minute Mum and I met her for our trials, we knew we were in good hands. Emma was very welcoming and so much fun. Originally we had planned for my hair and makeup to be done and Mum's hair only. Mum loved my makeup so much that she also wanted hers done on the wedding day and this was no trouble to add onto our package after the trial. We laughed so much I don't know how we got anything done - it especially helped to make the morning of the wedding stress free. On the day, Emma was a treasure. Nothing was too much trouble, be it taking our keys and helping us into our cottages during an accommodation switch, or allowing some of my entourage to 'borrow' some extra hairspray! Emma was patient, and kind and even helped me source lipsticks and powders so my make up stayed perfect all day. I would highly recommend Emma if you're looking for a talented makeup artist in the Wiltshire/ Somerset area. Thank you, Emma, for a wonderful experience and helping to make my wedding so special. 🥰

    Simply stunning!

    Emma was the most perfect make up and hair artist! She was so lovely, which made me feel really relaxed and comfortable at every meeting. I met Emma at a wedding fair and I’m so glad I did. She took her time at my trial and we worked our way through my visions and spoke through all my options following this, nothing was too much trouble. Her approach to making sure it’s all as you wish is really thorough in comparison to others I know of. This was reflected in how I felt on our big day. I literally felt stunning all because of her. She listened to my desired look and made it happen. On the morning of the wedding her lovely nature meant that she helped keep me calm and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Emma you are amazing!

    Friendly, professional, knowledgeable

    Highly recommend Emma and Monique. They both did such a great job!
    I requested a more ‘natural make up look’ and Emma was so knowledgeable.
    I had three bridesmaids, One flower girl and mother of the bride and the pictures all came out stunning. Couldn’t be happier with the results! Thank you x

    Amazing wedding make-up artist!

    Emma was absolutely fantastic from the first email and call to the day itself. Emma was so lovely and knew so much and was so experienced! The trial was great, I was very vague in my ideas and she tried different options until I has really happy with the look she created. She was great at providing advice about face-care routine between the trial and the wedding to help with my skin.

    She did make-up for myself and 5 bridesmaids on my wedding day. She was so lovely, chatty and relaxing to be around the morning of. She kept to an amazing timetable and everyone was so happy with the looks she created for everyone and it all stayed on so well for the whole day!

    The calmest and most positive person to have on your wedding morning!

    Emma did my mum’s hair and make up and my bridal hair on my wedding day. Yet even before this, amongst the stresses of wedding planning she made me for the first time feel like a bride at my trial, was so invested in our day and experiences we shared and my hair on the wedding day was everything I had dreamed of. Emma was such a calm and positive person to be around on the wedding morning and I very grateful for that!

    Really good makeup, stayed on all day no problems at all!

    Emma is really great, she really knows her stuff and is super nice. She listened to what I wanted, went through a lot of iterations to get it just right extremely patiently and did a great job on the day. I have acne prone skin so she used only sensitive skin products and I did not have any breakouts which was such a pleasant surprise! I would definitely recommend not to skip the trial.
