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.

So why do we still call it a breakfast? According to Nick from Country House Weddings, the answer goes back centuries and is tied to religion, fasting and the way weddings were once celebrated in Britain. Breaking A Very Specific Fast The word "breakfast" does not originally mean a morning meal. It simply means breaking a fast.

Why intimate weddings might be becoming the celebration of choice in 2026

Why intimate weddings might be becoming the celebration of choice in 2026

Intimate weddings are becoming increasingly popular at The Milner York in York, as modern couples move away from large traditional guest lists in favour of smaller, more personal celebrations. Wedding coordinator Imogen D'Cruz highlights a growing demand for private dining receptions, bespoke ceremonies and extended wedding weekends that allow couples and guests more meaningful time together. Couples are prioritising quality experiences, from tailored menus and personalised décor to multi-day stays that include welcome dinners and post-wedding brunches. While budgets are being reallocated rather than reduced, the focus is on creating memorable moments with close family and friends. This shift reflects a broader 2026 wedding trend towards flexibility, authenticity and relaxed, experience-led celebrations.
