FAQ's

No it is not necessary to book a makeup trial for your Bridesmaids or Mothers, however it is often quite nice to all come together have a girly day and have makeup done so you can invision the full look together and get into the wedding spirit. If they dont have a trial I would still suggest inviting your bride squad to your trial and then they can offer honest feedback on your look. They can discuss their preferences and ideas with me about their own makeup. or if you would prefer to keep it as a quieter affair then we can work one on one and you can keep your wedding look under wraps until the Big Day it is entirely your preference.

You dont need to worry about me I am more than happy to work in front of lots of people, as I am a media makeup lecturer so I am used to demoing and teaching groups of people.
