I couldn’t recommend The Strand Occasions enough! 🤍

They did the hair for both myself as the bride and my bridal party, and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. They were so professional, friendly and lovely to have around on the morning of the wedding, which made such a difference when everything was feeling so exciting

Everyone’s hair looked beautiful and was exactly what we had hoped for. The attention to detail was amazing, and they really listened to what we all wanted while making sure everything looked polished and beautiful.

And the best part — the hair genuinely lasted ALL day and night! Even after all the photos, dancing and celebrations, it still looked amazing. 🥰

Thank you so much to The Strand Occasions for helping make our wedding morning so special and for making me and my bridal party feel so confident and beautiful. I’m so glad I chose you for such an important part of the day! 🤍✨

Natalie was brilliant from start to finish.

All communication was super easy and I always received quick replies.

Myself and my mum both had hair and make up trials before the day, Natalie was knowledgeable and was able to talk us through different style and options after looking through our inspiration photos. After the trial we were able to discuss any changes we wanted to make and these were taken into account on the day.

Natalie arrived perfectly on time and work hard through out the morning to get myself, my mum and three bridesmaids ready, joining in with the conversations and laughter helping to put us all at ease.

As someone who never wears make up or gets my hair done I was really worried I wouldn’t look or feel like myself. But Natalie ensured the natural glam was exactly what I wanted and I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a hair and make up artist ❤️

Natalie was very nice, and patient with my indecision concerning what hair I should have on my wedding. She listened to my concerns after the hair and makeup trial. I was worried how flat my hair looked after the trial, but she arranged to get hair extensions in for the wedding day and my hair looked very good and natural still. I was most satisfied with the makeup, considering I don't normally wear any and I don't feel comfortable with a lot of it. She made it light and elegant, just what I asked for.

Natalie has been amazing from start to finish. Her ability to put my very loosely described vision into actual reality was more than I could ever ask for. She was in hand to answer any questions from start to finish. The trial blew me away in her ability to put together what I was looking for and she made me feel so comfortable and listened to. On the day itself she was on hand to ease everyone’s nerves and she listened so well to each person who sat in her chair. I would not have changed a thing and I got so many compliments all day. The cherry on the top, our day was unexpectedly very hot and both my hair and make up lasted all day. Thank you Natalie!

I had the most wonderful experience! From the trial to the big day. Natalie really listened to what I wanted and made me feel so special and beautiful for my wedding day. She kept me super calm on the day and I was so pleased with how my wedding hair and make up turned out. It stayed perfectly put all day long. She also did an amazing job of my bridesmaids’ hair / makeup. They looked so beautiful! It was an absolute pleasure to have her with us on the wedding morning. Thank you so much.

Natalie was amazing. During my hair and makeup trial, she quickly put me at ease before we trialled certain styles. On our big day yesterday, Natalie did such a great job and our guests kept telling me I looked beautiful. I honestly couldn't have asked for a more lovely morning preparing. 😊 xx

The hair and makeup provided for my wedding was amazing - the service provided at every step from the trial up to the wedding day was excellent. The hair and makeup was exactly what I wanted, Natalie was so accommodating and made me feel at ease. I can't recommend Natalie enough!

I used the Strand for my bridal party hair and make-up and we were all so happy with the results. Natalie listened to us and did exactly what we asked. She was very patient with me as well as I was quite indecisive about how I wanted my hair!

Natalie was friendly, professional and very hard working! I felt instantly comfortable with Natalie and knew I was in safe hands.

Thanks for helping make my day so special.

I would definitely recommend the Strand and Natalie. Very reasonably priced too!

Natalie was amazing throughout. From the trial where she really listened to what I wanted and the vision I had right through into the big day. All of my bridal party looked fantastic. Everyone commented on how natural and elegant our hair and make up looked. I would highly recommend Natalie to anyone wanting a personal yet professional service for their special occasions

Natalie’s service was amazing. The process from the trial at the beginning to the big day was very well organised and I felt very comfortable with the service provided. She made us look amazing, and gave me the confidence boost that I was looking for on my wedding day!

Natalie was a fantastic addition to the wedding day! She did beautiful makeup and hair for me and my 4 bridesmaids

The trial was a lovely experience with Natalie taking her time to talk me through options and try different styles and options and when I wasn’t 100% sure reworked the style for a new option

On the wedding day Natalie was calm, relaxed and natural with me and my bridal party and made us all feel at ease. She managed all the timings but still made sure each one of the us felt special and looked after and got exactly what we all wanted and produced beautiful results

Overall it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend to any brides/bridesmaids or even jsut for an event

Thank you Natalie!

Natalie was wonderful from start to finish. Myself and my mum had a trial before the wedding where Natalie listened to our requests and worked her magic.

On the day of the wedding Natalie was so calm and reassuring. She did hair and makeup for myself, my sister and my mum. The products she uses are high end top quality and she takes real pride in her work. We were all so happy with our looks!! I would definitely recommend Natalie for all future brides. Thank you again for making us all feel and look so special!

I can’t thank Natalie & Hattie enough for my wedding hair and make up, I felt a million dollars and all my bridesmaids looked fabulous.
I felt at ease from the trial to the day, as someone who never has anything done, Natalie listened to what I wanted and executed it perfectly. She even filmed the most beautiful video of me and my Dad heading to walk down the aisle - thank you so much! Highly recommend xx

Natalie and Hattie created the perfect getting ready day for my bridesmaids and I!
Not only did they get up at the crack of dawn and travel from Biggleswade to Lincolnshire but they made us all feel comfortable and at ease.
A lot of us hadn’t had our makeup done professionally before, but Natalie and Hattie listened and understood when we asked for what we would like. We felt comfortable expressing any changes or extras we wanted and never felt under pressure or rushed.
Couldn’t recommend them enough!

Natalie was amazing! First and foremost she is such a lovely person and she was really easy to get on with. It's clear to see that she loves her job and is very passionate about it. She listened to what I wanted and was able to give me really valuable advice. My experience at the preview was wonderful, she really took the time to make sure I was happy with everything and it really put my mind at ease. On the day she did makeup and hair for myself, my 2 bridesmaids and my mum. Everyone looked absolutely stunning! All of us wanted a different hairstyle which she was completely fine with, she was so versatile and flexible. I was absolutely thrilled with my makeup and I loved my hair! They both lasted really well considering how hot it was that day (I got married on 12.07.25)! My hair is renowned for dropping curls quickly but they lasted really well, which I was so impressed with. The morning of my wedding was very stressful, my house was full of adults, children and a dog but throughout it all Natalie was so calm and professional. I couldn't have asked for more! She started at 5.30 in the morning to make sure we were all ready in time and she even locked up for us after we had all left. The price she offered was so reasonable compared to other quotes I had been given. What she offers is such good value for money! I cannot recommend her enough!
