    Michelle was absolutely fantastic, she done my makeup for my wedding day and made me look amazing! Michelle also done mother of the bride and my 3 bridesmaids, we were all over the moon with the results, one of my bridesmaids is a teen with sensitive skin and acne, Michelle took into consideration what this bridesmaid needed as she was panicking about her skin, she listened and worked with her and made her skin look flawless. Michelle went above and beyond, helping us all get dressed once makeup was finished. I will absolutely be using Michelle again for any special occasion makeup or even a night out with the girls. Thank you so much Michelle for helping to make my big day even more special x

    I can't express how happy I am that I chose Michelle to be my make-up artist for my wedding day. From the very first email Michelle brought a warmth and professionalism that I deeply appreciated. Every interaction demonstrated her passion for the profession as well as her innate ability to connect and understand her brides needs. I was initially unsure whether I would be able to fit in a make-up trial given I was flying into the UK only a few days before my wedding, but Michelle was so accommodating and made it work for me and I'm so glad I did the trial! I don't usually wear a lot of make-up and thought I'd try something different for my wedding but during the trial I realised it was too much. Michelle understood this and helped me find a balance where I felt beautiful AND comfortable with the final look which meant on the day of my wedding she found the exact look I desired. I was so grateful for her openess and willingness to listen and meet my needs. I can't recommend Michelle highly enough, not only is she an amazing talent but also a wonderful person and I really enjoyed getting to know her.

    There are not enough words to say how grateful I am to Michelle. I was so nervous to have my make up done for my wedding as I don't wear a lot of make up and wanting to look natural. I met Michelle 6 months before I got married and she instantly made me feel comfortable and listened to what I wanted and when I wasn't sure, she gave amazing advice and options. Michelle has extensive knowledge on hair and beauty which made me feel reassured. I met with Michelle for different beauty treatments before my wedding and Michelle was so welcoming. It was lovely to get to know Michelle and it meant on my wedding day, I felt like I knew her and she knew me. On the day, Michelle was amazing. She went above and beyond what I would have expected. She was such a calming presence. Michelle was able to help my bridesmaids, who don't wear a lot of make up either, to learn about make up and one of them wrote down products that Michelle used because she loved her make up so much. Michelle is amazing- I 100% recommend her and I'm so glad she was part of my wedding day. Thank you Michelle

    I met Michelle at a wedding fair and when I met her I knew she was the hair and make-up artist for me.

    I really enjoyed the bridal hair and make-up trial as it gave me the chance to get to know Michelle more. She is such a kind, calm and knowledgeable woman, who puts in so much effort to making you look your best. I was quite undecided on what I wanted to look like, but Michelle asks lots of questions to pin-point a look you would like, even when you didn't have a clear idea to begin with!

    Prior to my wedding, I had my lashes tinted and lifted which again was another chance to relax and chat in her lovely studio! She offers so many treatments which means I can still book and get treatments done from her in the future.

    On the day of the wedding, I loved having Michelle there. She just fit into the dynamics of the morning perfectly. My bridesmaids looked absolutely beautiful and I loved the colours in my make-up too! We didn't get a chance to take some photos of my complete look, however I love the ones you see on Michelle's facebook page! Once I get my professional photos sent I will be sure to send some over!

    My hair stayed in all day, even with a ceilidh and then me not leaving the dancefloor until the music stopped.

    Thank-you Michelle, for your character, professionalism and expertise. My hair and make-up reflected exactly how I wanted to feel for my wedding day. Completely and fully my beautiful self!

  • Debbie Johnson (Monday, September 02 24 05:22 pm BST)

    Absolutely super service from Michelle. I didn’t think it would be possible for anyone to do something special with my hair because of its length but Michelle created a miracle and did it with apparent ease ( and somewhere in the region of 50-60 hairpins!)
    My makeup was perfect and exactly what I required. The trial session was excellent as it really set my mind at ease and I was confident in Michelle’s skills and talent on the day. Would definitely recommend her services.

  • Jeannine Hughes (Thursday, June 06 24 08:58 pm BST)

    From the first contact with Michelle I knew I had found the right person.
    Her professionalism and attention to detail is second to non and just what is needed for wedding hair and make up.
    I had no idea what I needed and at my trial Michelle took the time to listen to my ideas and made them work so well.
    I booked my nails and had a few other treatments with her in the days before my wedding and that experience was wonderful. In the time we spent together, Michelle got to know me which really helped put me at ease. I felt in such capable hands
    The night before the wedding I had managed to lose my hair accessories, which was more than a little stressful, a quick message and Michelle came to the rescue with the most perfect vine 💕

    On the day Michelle came to my hotel and performed miracles!
    My hair and make up were fantastic, she helped me to finalise my overall look, even taking the time to help me into my dress (I’d managed to forget I needed someone to do that!)
    I left feeling so comfortable, the hair was perfect and my make up looked like me on a great day although about 10 years younger. Just wow!
    The colours brought out the green in my eyes and the overall feel was so light, I forgot I was wearing make up. It was a very hot day and everything just stayed in place throughout.
    One person even thought that the wedding photo I showed her was of my daughter!
    I will continue to visit Michelle for future treatments and I’m heading back soon for a make up lesson to try to capture some of her amazing skills.
    Michelle you are so calm and helped everything go so perfectly, I cannot thank you enough.

  • Clare Dearden (Thursday, April 11 24 04:51 pm BST)

    From my hair and makeup trial michelle made me feel so comfortable, she created the exact look I was after. My whole bridal party loved their makeup and Victoria hair and makeup did a fantastic job creating the look they all wanted for their hair. I would highly recommend Michelle you won’t be disappointed, I would chose her all over again, how lovely it was having Michelle and Victoria share the morning with us all 😊😊

  • Annie Thelwell (Tuesday, January 02 24 09:03 pm GMT)

    Michelle was amazing from start to finish. She has the patience of a saint! I had no clue about make up or looks I wanted when I came to Michelle. She was so lovely about talking through the options and giving recommendations. She worked hard to ensure I got a look I was happy with.
    On the big day everything ran smoothly and to time thanks to Michelle’s organisation and efficiency. She was great with my bridal party, joining in with our pre-wedding chatter and making last minute touch ups. I’m so pleased I chose Michelle for my wedding hair and make up and would recommend her to any future brides!

  • Nikki Bell (Wednesday, December 20 23 08:10 pm GMT)

    Michelle is the absolute best. Brides always worry about make up being done wrong, or not what you asked for but Michelle, she ensures she asks you everything that you’re looking for and makes sure she delivers it. From first time meeting her, to my wedding day, she was fantastic and all the bridal parties make up was phenomenal and lasted all day/night (even though it was red hot) it never felt awkward and it felt like she was extended family. Thank you so much Michelle. You’re amazing

  • Lesley Christman (Wednesday, December 20 23 07:10 pm GMT)

    Michelle recently done my wedding make up and it was amazing, I don't wear make up alot as i have sensitive skin and was a little bit worried to say the least. Michelle made me feel totally at ease explained what she was doing at my trial and the final product looked great. I will 100% use Michelle again for future events

  • Tracey Licence (Sunday, August 20 23 06:04 pm BST)

    Can't recommend Michelle highly enough, She did my hair and make-up for my wedding day. She was lovely , friendly and very helpful guiding me through on my trial day on what would be the best beauty routine leading up to my wedding day and giving me recommendations for the best products for my age and skin type. On the day she was very patient and made me look fresh , natural my best on my special day. I received lots of compliments and photos look great too.

  • Clare moulding (Wednesday, June 28 23 06:20 am BST)

  • Nicola (Wednesday, May 03 23 01:30 pm BST)

    Hi Michelle, I can’t thank you enough for your AMAZING work on Sunday. All of our hair and makeup were outstanding. We all had compliments throughout the whole day and night for our appearance. Our hair and makeup were pristine, we didn’t want to wash our makeup off or take our hair out because we loved how you made us all look. I would definitely recommend you for any special occasion. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of my daughters wedding. Take Care Nicola xx

  • Lindsay (Wednesday, September 07 22 05:53 pm BST)

    I had my make up and nails done by Michelle for my wedding day , Michelle made me feel at ease from the first moment I met her. She’s an absolute star my make up was flawless as were my nails. Brides to be if you’re looking for a make up artist for your wedding day then look no further! Michelle kept me calm even though I was a shaking mess and nothing is too much trouble for her. She goes above and beyond her role as a make up artist and offered to help in any way she could , she treats you like a lifelong friend !! Which is exactly what you need on your wedding day . I can’t recommend Michelle highly enough. Thank you so much Michelle for making my wedding day perfect xx❤️Xx

  • Lindsay Marshall (Monday, June 06 22 12:55 pm BST)

    I had my wedding make up trial with Michelle today ,I’ve never had my make up done professionally before , from the moment I met her she made me feel at total ease. Michelle is a true artist my makeup was flawless and I couldn’t be happier with the result! I cannot wait for my wedding day knowing I’m in Michelle’s very capable hands ! Thank you so much Michelle 😊xx

  • Jillian K (Thursday, May 05 22 10:06 pm BST)

    I had a hair trial with Michelle for my wedding. Michelle was absolutely lovely she spent time to find out what I would like and tried out a few styles, the trial gave me a great idea of what would be suitable for my wedding day. Thank you so much.

  • Helen S (Sunday, October 08 17 11:01 pm BST)

    I contacted Michelle about my wedding makeup after being recommended by a friend. Michelle was absolutely wonderful. She got to know me, what the colour scheme of the wedding was, what my skin was like etc before trialling my wedding make up. She even gave me some hints and tips about skin concerns that I had (and they worked because my skin was even better than I hoped by the time of the wedding!). Michelle also did my makeup for the engagement shoot and my nails the day before the wedding. As if she couldn’t be even more fabulous than she had been on the run up to the wedding, Michelle was an angel on the wedding day itself. She helped strap my bridesmaids into their corset backed dresses and even helped me with my dress too. It was all hands on deck! I had a bit of a mishap with gel nails a few weeks before (done by a salon) and my nails were not in the best state. Again, like my skin, Michelle was more than happy to give me advice and gave them a good pamper. She even came around to drop off a gel removal kit just before I went on honeymoon. I was absolutely delighted with my whole experience and would highly recommend Michelle.

- Here are just a few comments........
'I had never had my make-up done professionally before, so having my make-up done for my wedding was a really big thing for me. I first met Michelle when I had my makeup trial. She was very friendly and knew exactly what I wanted. I could not fault the trial...she only had to do it once and got it spot on. This made me completely at ease for the big day. On the day Michelle arrived at the venue in plenty of time so I didn’t have to stress. Again she got my make-up exactly how I wanted it and she even stayed until just before I went down the aisle to do the final touch ups! I have had many comments from people about how lovely my make-up was and how I looked like a celebrity! Michelle was extremely attentive from start to finish and I would 100% recommend her for any bride to be!'
