Before and after of blonde model wearing bridal make up

Tell us about your business...
I try to focus on natural beauty and a fresh skin look. I'm a mum of two, and wanted a business to fit around my children. I qualified as a make-up artist, and then got the bug for beauty and qualified in lashes, nails and beauty. I absolutely love meeting different people and hearing their stories – I think my physiology degree helps too!

What's your favourite bridal beauty look?
I think my favourite bridal look is glowing gorgeous skin with framed stunning eyes and a glossy lip. 

What's your top tip for brides choosing a wedding make-up artist?
Find someone you feel comfortable talking to, so if you aren't happy with the trial look, you have the confidence to speak up. I think there is nothing worse than leaving an appointment and hating what the artist has done. As an artist we want to know. 

What question do you get asked by brides the most?
"How do I get that glowing skin look?" I try to work with brides before the day to make sure they are looking after their skin and drinking plenty of water. Make-up can do an incredible job, but there's nothing better than working with a fabulous canvas.

The 2026 UK Wedding Blacklist: The 10 Songs Couples Don’t Want on the Dancefloor

Modern British couples are officially rewriting the rules of wedding entertainment, according to new social listening research released today by UK live music and entertainment agency Jonny Ross Music. An analysis of social media discussions across TikTok and Reddit (r/UKweddings) reveals that traditional party staples are being systematically blacklisted in favour of curated, sophisticated setlists. The results point to a clear change in what younger couples want from their wedding receptions. Group dances, heavily played 2010s pop songs and football-style chants are among the tracks and trends couples are increasingly asking DJs and live bands to leave off their playlists.
