THE BRIDAL EXPERIENCE & PRICING
Every moment of your wedding day should be filled with joy – including the time spent preparing for it.
We offer a single, signature Bridal Experience, designed exclusively for the bride. This premium service centres around thoughtful preparation, attention to detail, and a calm, seamless wedding morning.
Created for the style-conscious bride who values a modern, refined approach to bridal beauty, the experience allows space to thoughtfully refine each detail, ensuring you feel confident, relaxed, and completely yourself.
The Bridal Experience includes a collaborative Design Appointment — a dedicated session to design and refine your bridal hair and makeup ahead of the wedding day — alongside wedding day styling. This creates a considered journey from the early stages of planning through to the morning of your wedding.
Bridal party and guest services are available as additional bookings, should you wish to extend the experience to those closest to you.

FAQ'S
HOW DOES THE TEAM WORK?
If I am not available for your wedding date, I will provide you with artist options, including profile links and a tailored quote. Once you’ve chosen your artist, you’ll be in direct touch, but with all the support and experience of our dedicated team backing you up. We handle the details and keep everything on track so you can relax and focus on enjoying your special day.
HOW DO I BOOK?
To begin your Bridal Experience, please complete our enquiry form.
To secure your wedding date with a member of the team, the specific booking fee amount will be outlined in your quote. Upon payment, you’ll receive a confirmation welcome email along with a comprehensive Bridal Experience Booking Guide outlining the next steps.
HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE?
Our team prices are transparently included in this guide.
DO YOU REQUIRE A MINIMUM BOOKING?
During peak season (Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays), we typically require a minimum booking of the bride plus one adult for both hair and makeup, or the equivalent in monetary terms. Similar minimums apply for bank holidays, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve weddings.
DO YOU TRAVEL TO OTHER AREAS NOT LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE?
Yes, we love destination weddings and are happy to travel beyond our listed areas. Travel fees are calculated from the artist’s home and will be included in your personalised quote. Depending on location and travel time, accommodation may be required the night before.
I HAVE A LARGE BRIDAL PARTY. DO YOU HAVE A MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SERVICES YOU CAN ACCOMMODATE?
We’re accustomed to early starts but understand not everyone wants to rise at dawn on their wedding day! For larger parties or early ceremonies, we may recommend an additional artist to ensure smooth service. A fee of £150 per additional artist will apply.
WHAT BRANDS DO YOU USE IN YOUR KIT?
We curate our kit with top products from various luxury and professional brands selected for their performance and longevity. Some of our favourites include Charlotte Tilbury, Lisa Eldridge, Bobbi Brown, Mac, Glossier (makeup) and L’Oreal Pro, Osis, Hot Tools, Moroccan Oil (hair).
CAN I BOOK A DESIGN APPOINTMENT BEFORE PAYING THE BOOKING FEE?
Design Appointments are offered exclusively as part of the Bridal Experience and are not available as standalone bookings. A booking fee is required before scheduling your appointment, as this secures your wedding date and confirms our mutual commitment.
The Design Appointment is intended to refine your chosen bridal look rather than to “trial” the artist. In the unlikely event you decide not to proceed after your appointment, a partial refund of the booking fee may be available, subject to certain conditions.
WHEN DO YOU RECOMMEND I BOOK MY DESIGN APPOINTMENT?
We advise booking your Design Appointment three to six months before your wedding day. Design Appointments are bookable Monday to Thursday. Appointment times are dependant on your artist but typically available in the morning or the afternoon. Evening and weekend appointments may be considered under special circumstances but will incur an additional fee, and availability cannot be guaranteed.
CAN I BOOK WEDDING DAY STYLING WITHOUT A DESIGN APPOINTMENT?
Yes, wedding day styling can be booked without a Design Appointment if you feel confident in your vision and don’t feel a preview is necessary.
That said, a Design Appointment is strongly recommended as part of the Bridal Experience. It allows time to thoughtfully explore and refine your look, ensure comfort and longevity, and align every detail ahead of the wedding day. It also allows your artist to fully understand your preferences and document the chosen products and techniques, ensuring a seamless and confident wedding morning.
WHERE WILL THE DESIGN APPOINTMENT BE HELD?
Design Appointments are held either at your home or the artist’s studio. Specific requirements will be dependent on your artist. Additional charges for travel, congestion and parking may apply as specified in the booking process.
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY DESIGN APPOINTMENT?
Upon securing your booking, you’ll receive a booking form and our comprehensive Bridal Experience Booking Guide. These resources help us understand your preferences and prepare you for a successful Design Appointment.
WHAT HAPPENS AT MY DESIGN APPOINTMENT?
Your Design Appointment includes a thorough consultation to discuss your vision, needs and preferred styles. Visual references you provide help us tailor the perfect look. Detailed notes, product records and reference photos ensure consistent results on your wedding day.
CAN I TRY MORE THAN ONE LOOK AT THE DESIGN APPOINTMENT?
You may try multiple styles, though we recommend focusing on a general style or two favourites to avoid confusion and ensure a successful Design Appointment.
WHAT HAPPENS ON THE WEDDING DAY?
We aim to make your experience relaxed and enjoyable, ensuring you feel pampered and prepared. Detailed schedules, set-up in advance and last-minute touch-ups ensure you look and feel your best throughout the day.
HOW LONG WILL THE HAIR AND MAKEUP TAKE?
Timing varies based on your needs and artist. Please see below estimated timings for our services:
Bride Hair and Makeup: 2 hours
Bridal Party Hair Only: 45 mins
Bridal Party Makeup Only: 40 mins
Junior Hair and Makeup: 45 mins
Flower Girl Hair Only: 25 mins
We also allocate time for set-up and recommend completing services 45 – 60 minutes before you need to leave for the ceremony.
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR THE WEDDING DAY?
We recommend washing hair the day/night before and ensuring skin is clean and makeup-free. Normal skincare routines are encouraged.
CAN YOU STAY FOR TOUCH UPS THROUGHOUT THE WEDDING DAY?
If you require additional time or a second look/evening style, please inform us when submitting your enquiry. Pricing will be calculated based on your requirements.
KIND WORDS
"Sophie made me, and the bridal party feel totally at ease and absolutely amazing"
I booked hair and makeup through Lauren for myself, my sister and my partners family for my Hindu Wedding Ceremony. Lauren wasn’t available but linked me up with some other wonderful makeup artists. Lauren provided a really efficient and supportive service, I would definitely recommend her! Sophie did hair and make up for the bridal party and was just amazing. She is warm, encouraging and so skilled in both hair and makeup. She made me, and the bridal party feel totally at ease and absolutely amazing.
— Louisa Borgcostanzi-Potts
"Emily managed to pull off an absolute miracle"
I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Emily (and Sophie) for doing the hair and make up for my wedding day. You managed to pull off an absolute miracle – making me look amazing when I was so incredibly ill and it was 30 degrees outside. My hair and make up stayed put all day and I am so happy with how it all turned out.
— KITTY BENZECRY
"AMANDA - THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME FEEL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS"
I had a wonderful experience with Lauren and the team. Would highly recommend!
Lauren – your organisation and check ins made this process seamless and stress free, so thank you very much.
Amanda – thank you for making me feel absolutely gorgeous on what is such a memorable day, I felt like an absolute princess!
