October Update!

Wow! Wedding season has officially come to an end, what a year! I had eleven beautiful Bride's in October unheard-of!  It has been such a busy fun filled year of work and I am so grateful for every Bride that chose me to be a part of their special day and all the other clients that booked me this year too... what a come back after covid shut down mine and so many other businesses and very sadly some that were not so lucky to survive.  

I still have a few more winter weddings but the peak is over so definitely a couple of weekends off for me ahead! 

What gorgeous warm sunny autumn days we are having!  I have been enjoying some lovely dog walks and just check out so many clear bright blue skies in my photos!


















Here's a few of my recent work pictures captured on my I-phone!

Coltsfoot country recent has been my office for the last three Sunday's working inside a cute little shepherd hut surrounded by sheep! 































































I met beautiful Karla for the first time on her wedding day at Sheen Mill, she did not live nearby so there was no opportunity for a trial run. This rarely happens but on the odd occasion it has I am pleased to say all has gone very well! I did both Karla's hair and make up.





























I visited stunning Notley Abbey this month a venue I have not been to in a while but definitely a favourite!

























































I also visited Plum Park hotel, my first time to this venue but hopefully not my last.  The staff here were extremely helpful to me when I arrived.











































I was at Luton Hoo for my last October bride where I am lucky enough to be a Recommended supplier, such a beautiful location to work at with the best bridal preparation views I have seen.   
I loved creating this hairstyle, part up part down variations are definitely my favourite style to do.
 




























Pendley Manor was the Location for this beautiful Bride's hair and makeup.













































As a Recommended supplier at beautiful St Michaels Manor it is definitely my favourite venue locally, and what a gorgeous October day it was for a wedding here!

September update!

This year is flying by too fast!! I cannot believe we are in October already. What a crazy busy but amazing year so far with so many happy weddings and parties able to take place again. I am about to start my busiest October ever with eleven beautiful brides to beautify this month!  The Covid wedding backlog is ongoing and definitely going into next year as well.  

I have been overwhelmed with the number of such lovely reviews I have received recently, I am so very grateful for each and every one so a huge thank you to all those who took the time to write a testimonial for me and those that have sent me gorgeous images as well!

Check out some of my I-Phone snaps below, just some of the gorgeous ladies I have had the pleasure to work with this month a mix of Brides, Mums and Bridesmaids.









































































































































Hairstyling....










































I also had a nice little sunny break in Porto for my Birthday at the beginning of the month, it was lovely in the end after our flight was cancelled the day before, a little bit of stress but all sorted eventually!












































































I am loving working in my new garden studio especially now temperatures are a bit cooler! It is the perfect space for bridal trial's, makeup lessons, and special occasion hair and makeup. 










I am taking Bridal & Event bookings for both 2023 and 2024 currently, do secure your date early to avoid disappointment. All enquiries via www.nikimakeup.co.uk
