REAL BRIDE SARAH: GET THE LOOK

Real Brides

It was an unbelievably warm day in June but despite the heat, Sarah looked truly stunning. Sarah married Josh at Wootton Hall Estate (one of my favourite venues in the UK) in June 2023. A perfectly elegant affair, the heartfelt ceremony was followed by cool Aperol Spritz and Champagne on the lawn – the most […]

"I STILL LOOKED LIKE MYSELF BUT
MORE ELEVATED"

"Sam was amazing from the very beginning and put me at ease straight away. Sam went above and beyond on the wedding day - she kept the vibe really fun during the morning and made sure I was completely happy with my make-up.  I really appreciated the fact that Sam waited until after the ceremony for me to do a touch up as it was a particularly hot weekend and there was quite a lot of crying during the ceremony! Thank you so much for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!"

"ATTENTIVE, PROFESSIONAL AND EXCEPTIONALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE"

"I cannot recommend Sam highly enough. From the very beginning she was attentive, professional and exceptionally knowledgeable about which products would be ideal to achieve the look I wanted. My makeup was flawless from day to night! Guests continuously commented on how beautiful I looked! 
Sam was also a very calming influence before I walked down the aisle, as well as helping me into my dress so I could do a 'reveal' to my bridal party. She really is the full package."

"An incredibly talented professional"

"Sam has an eye for colour matching that is truly exceptional - especially when it comes to complexion products. She struck the balance just right on the look I desired - as natural as possible that would still photograph beautifully. My makeup lasted incredibly well - I still looked great when I finally called it a night in the early hours of the next morning! I honestly could not recommend her more highly."
