Manchester Wedding Makeup Testimonials & Reviews

Zoe Kieran, April 2014, Rookery Hall, Cheshire:

I wanted to email to thank you so much for my amazing hair and makeup for the wedding. My mum, the bridesmaids and I were are thrilled with what you did and loved how natural and classic our styles were. You both made us feel so relaxed during the course of the morning as we knew we were in safe hands! You gave us exactly what we wanted and I will definitely be recommending you to any future brides I know.

 Hannah Shipman, Langdale Chase Hotel, The Lake District:

Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job for me, I was made up with my hair and make up, it was exactly what I wanted and I felt really great all day. It was also really nice to have you around when we were getting ready, because you made me feel calm and there was no rushing, it all just came together. Big thanks again!

Lizzie Nield, December 2013, Belle Epoque, Knutsford:

I am sorry it’s a bit delayed but I just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing our make up on my wedding day. All four of us absolutely loved our make-up, we looked flawless and you covered up my awful skin so well, no one would ever have known. I was so worried about my skin looking bad on the day as well, but it looked amazing and I didn’t even have to touch it up once through the day and the evening do (and I danced a LOT!). Anyway, it was great to meet you, I am so glad I chose you to do our make-up, and I just wanted to say thank you on behalf of my Mum and my bridesmaids, we all thought your work was amazing 🙂

Anna Salmon, October 2013, Rivington Hall, Bolton:

Would just like to say thank you for the brilliant make-up you did at my wedding. All the Bridesmaids, my Mum & Me were really impressed at how it looked, I wish I knew how to do it that good myself! It was perfect & you were a pleasure to work with.

Tracey Frain, September 2013, Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa, Blackburn:

I just wanted to say a big ‘thank-you’ for my fabulous makeup and hair you did for my wedding on Saturday, 14^th September 2013. I felt like Miss World and got loads of  compliments. You also did a wonderful job on my bridesmaids Kara and Nicole, who were so pleased and looked glamorous all day and night. I had a totally relaxed morning with you and the girls and enjoyed your company so much. You are truly amazing and a true professional and I would not hesitate to recommend you to any future brides.

Debra Valentine, August 2013, The Midland, Manchester:

Thank you so much Michelle for all your hard work on the day of our wedding. You did a wonderful job of my sister Karen’s hair and make up and considering that you hadn’t even met before or done a trial with her, you understood what she wanted immediately. Karen was so pleased with what you had done and felt absolutely wonderful throughout the day. I thought she looked fabulous too. Thank you for making such a good job of my make up and for listening and being patient with me. I was extremely stressed on the day and I know I’m not the easiest of people to work with when I’m stressed, but you were fantastic. Everyone commented on how good Karen and I looked and that was down to you Michelle so a special thank you. Michelle you are a true professional and I am so glad that I was able to book you for my wedding. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who requires hair/make up for a special future event. Thank you again from me and my sister Karen.

Jane Staniforth, August 2013, Belle Epoque, Knutsford:

I was meaning to email you to say thank you so much for doing my hair and make up and Lucy’s too, we were so, so pleased. My make up literally lasted all day and night and it was sooooo hot throughout the day, especially during the ceremony. I thought I would be a sweaty mess in a few hours, but people kept saying I looked fresh and not pink/sweaty at all, (I felt it though!) which is down to you, so thank you so much!!

Tracy Monk, June 2013, Bolton School:

Just thought I’d send you this message of Thank you, to you and your colleague. You are two of the nicest and professional people I have had the pleasure to meet. All you did for myself and my bridesmaids was perfect, our make-up and hair stayed in all day. No touch ups needed. I got loads of compliments throughout the day and night. I would definitely recommend you to anyone who is thinking of getting married and would like a make up artist to do their make-up for their special day. Thanks again.

I felt fabulous and my photos were unbelievable. I took great delight in showing them to my ex-boyfriend – he seemed impressed!! Thanks again Roisin Xx

Clare Greenwood, Sept 2012 Flixton:

Thank you so much again on behalf of myself and my bridesmaids for all your hard work on the 15th September with our hair and my makeup! (despite you having a cold!) We had lots of comments from everyone and the make up on camera looks fab 🙂 Happy to send you photos for your website if you would like them! I was wondering whether you could send me a list of the products you used for my make up as I’m going to upgrade my make-up kit?!

Aoife, Breda, Aly, Ali & Seline, Aug 2012, Thornton Manor, Wirral:

Thank you so much for all your help in the lead up to and on the day of the wedding. We were all highly delighted with our hair and make-up on the day – worth getting up early for. We will certainly not hesitate to recommend your services in the future – we had lots of lovely comments on the day about our hair and make-up and it looks wonderful in the photos. Thanks again and lots of love.

Janine Crimmins, March 2012, Belle Epoque, Knutsford:

Just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful job you did on my hair and make up. I had plenty of compliments and felt fantastic – had many Grace Kelly comparisons (how flattering). Everything lasted all day, no retouching required! We had a great day and everyone commented on how relaxed and fun it was. I just need to learn how to do my hair and make up now myself – already experimenting after picking up some tips from you. I’ll certainly recommend you and hope I have another special occasion to warrant another visit from you, I really enjoyed the whole experience.

Sarah Dixon, November 2011, Styal Lodge:

It was so great having you and Hayley around the morning of the wedding and I couldn’t imagine anyone who is better than you.

Laura Broadway, October 2011, Mere Court:

I would like to say on behalf of myself, Lisa & Lindsey, thank you so very much for our make up on Saturday, it was stunning. Everyone commented on how beautiful it was put on. I’ve given your name to a few girls if that was OK? We didn’t have to reapply anything all day or night…it was lovely. Thanks again xxx

Robyn Lucas-Jones, September 2011, Styal Lodge:

I cannot recommend Michelle highly enough. I had my hair and makeup done for my wedding on the 03.09.11, and it was such a treat! I received so many lovely comments from my guests about my hair and makeup, and it stayed put all day and night. Michelle did exactly what I asked for; it was such a relief not to have to sit there for ages in my trial going through what I wanted. In my trial, the foundation did not suit my skin (I have annoying combination skin) and Michelle went to lots of trouble to make sure that I had the right foundation on the day – even emailing me regularly to recommend different types of foundation – excellent customer service in my opinion. Michelle also did my bridesmaids hair, which also got lots of compliments, and all of them said that they felt stunning on the day. She did my hair and makeup, and 3 bridesmaids, all in one morning, and did not break a sweat! I found that Michelle has a very calming manner, which is what you want on the day of your wedding! Thank you

Barbra Guinto, Aug 2011, Salmesbury Hall:

Mahj Ansari, July 2011, Mottram Hall, Cheshire:

Just a quick email to say thank you so very much for all your mad make up skillz yesterday! I got so many compliments about how good I looked and I’m pretty sure all the credit can go to you for that! Also you were totally right about needing more make up for the photos, I’ve seen some family and friends shots today and it really made a difference and even better, lasted all day and night! Both mine and the girls hair do’s stayed in all day and night and though my head was killing me by the time I got them to take all the clips out (1.30am) I was gutted to take it out. Thanks again, it was so lovely to meet you.

Helen Benbow, July 2011, Wrightington Hotel & Country Club, Lancashire:

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for the other day. My mum looked amazing and I loved my make up-everyone commented on it! We had an amazing day! Would just like to ask what foundation you used on me and the make up that you mixed the foundation with so perhaps I can have a go of it myself! Many thanks again.
