Cicely did an amazing job of my wedding hair and make-up. She was incredible easy to work with and made the morning very calm and enjoyable with a time plan etc. I did a trial beforehand which was really helpful to decide on the overall look and to try a few different things out. She also did my Mum's, sister's and bridesmaid's make-up and they all looked gorgeous! My hair and make-up lasted all day and I felt really good and confident so a huge thank you to Cicely!

Cicely is amazing! We only connected 2 weeks before my wedding but she managed to fit a trial in for me before the wedding day as well as doing the day itself. Cicely has such a calm and supportive nature about her, she really is just the right person to have there on a big day when nerves might be higher than usual. She also is great with ideas as I had a hair piece that I wasn’t sure how to style and she suggested the placement which worked wonderfully.

Cicely did hair and makeup for me, my mum and one of my bridesmaids. She is incredibly talented. We all had different hairstyles and make up styles suited to our choices, hair and skin tones and they were all flawless and lasted all day (even during a heatwave!). We were all so so happy with the results and can’t wait to see the professional photos soon! Thank you again, you really were wonderful (as was Amanda your assistant!) x

Cicely did the makeup for me and my whole bridal party for my wedding in Oct 2021. She was so lovely and professional! She made us look fantastic while keeping our makeup natural so we looked like ourselves which was important to me. She was also calm and positive throughout which helped ease my morning-of-wedding nerves. I would definitely recommend her services and I'm so glad she was part of my wedding day!

Cicely did my hair and make-up for my wedding and I couldn't have been happier. We had a trial before the wedding to talk through what I wanted to do which I found really helpful. I sent through inspirational images and Cicely worked her magic on the day to get the exact look. Professional and so so lovely to work with. Highly recommend 🙂

Could not have been more pleased

Just wanted to say thanks so much for doing the hair and make up for my Wedding. I had lovely comments from everyone and the photos have come out great. My mum and the bridesmaids really enjoyed looking so glamorous for the day and we all enjoyed your company and words of reassurance too!! I could not have been more pleased. Thanks again.

You made everyone feel so comfortable

Ronnie and I just wanted to say thanks again for all your help and support on our wedding day. You made everyone feel so comfortable and relaxed on such a BIG day, not to mention beautiful. I still can’t believe that our make up lasted the whole day and night! My advice to other brides is hair and make up is just as important as the dress!

Mr & Mrs Nelson

I’d recommend you in a heartbeat

I really wanted to thank you for being so fantastic on the day! You were so calm and helpful that morning. And the hair and make-up were amazing! Elegant and natural looking which was just what I wanted. Both lasted all day,in spite of some pretty enthusiastic dancing! and LOTS of people commented on how nice they were. So thank you, thank you, thank you! I’d recommend you in a heartbeat.

boosted my confidence

I just wanted you to know how grateful I am for the make-up lesson. As you know, I had extensive surgery on my upper lip due to skin cancer, and understandably, have been feeling very self-conscious about it. In our lesson, you taught me some great techniques to disguise the scarring and make my lips appear symmetrical, and as a result, I’ve been out wearing red lipstick for the first time since the operation! It has really boosted my confidence, and I just want to say thank you, not just for your expertise, but for your ability to pass it on to me, and for being such an understanding and empathetic teacher.

Fantastic addition to our special day

Cicely was a fantastic addition to our special day. All of the girls had their make up done which made them all feel special and glamorous – and they all loved the false eyelashes! My hair and make up matched my dress perfectly and I felt like a truly beautiful bride – she also made some lovely sparkly pins for my hair which looked lovely once my veil had come off. She was on time, calm throughout the madness and a wealth of information for us – I would definitely recommend her to any other brides – I might just be signing myself up for a make up lesson next!

I felt so beautiful

The morning of my wedding was such a special time. Cicely really made my mum, bridesmaid and I feel so comfortable and at ease, it truly was a relaxed and stress-free morning which we all enjoyed. Cicely was extremely punctual and had made a note of everything following my trial so we were all set to go as soon as she arrived! My make up and hair were just perfect for me! I felt so beautiful and like a real bride! For my hair Cicely had made some pearl clips and so many guests at our wedding commented how amazing it was and how lovely I looked. I was so happy with my hair and make up and would definitely recommend Cicely to other brides.

Caroline

Definitely recommend

Cicely did such a fantastic job with my hair and make up for our wedding. She looked at the photos of my dress and advised me on the sort of hair/make up styles that would work. She also gave me a full trial before the wedding and, taking my likes and dislikes into account, created a really lovely look that lasted all day. She was also really friendly and relaxed, just the sort of person you want around on the morning of the wedding! Everyone commented on how fantastic my hair and make up looked and it really showed up beautifully on our photos and video. I would definitely recommend Cicely!
