You want to look amazing and feel just as brilliant when you walk up the aisle. To glow with health and inner radiance in your wedding photos takes lots of preparation well before the wedding day to ensure healthy hair, skin and nails, and most brides will also want the help of a great make-up artist and hair stylist on the wedding day itself.
Your usual hair dresser may be reluctant to leave their salon on a busy Saturday and you may prefer that your hair and make-up are done in the comfort and privacy of your home or at the venue so that you don't have to walk down the High Street wearing a tiara like someone from a bridal beauty pageant. Choose a hairdresser and MUA who specialise in wedding beauty and offer services at your home or at your wedding venue. Having a trial run with your hairstyle, make-up and nails so that your wedding beauty experts will know exactly how they can help you to look your very best on your wedding day.
A professional in bridal beauty will also be able to do your bridesmaids hairstyles and make-up as well on the day of your wedding. If you have a big wedding party with lots of people needing hair and make-up support, bear in mind that your stylists may require an assistant which does come at an additional cost. Most wedding hair and make-up specialists are able to help around 5 people on their own, but careful planning and a set schedule is imperative to making sure everyone is ready in time for the wedding ceremony.
Cosmetic Surgery and Non-surgical Aesthetic Treatments
Whether it is botox, teeth whitening or something more, lots of brides (and indeed grooms) are turning to specialist clinics before their wedding so that they can look their very best. If you are wanting to have a non-surgical aesthetic treatment or any pre-wedding cosmetic surgery procedures, always consult a licensed professional and make sure the treatment is carried out well before the wedding. For things like botox, it can take a few weeks for the treatment to settle and you don't want to be disappointed by the results within a few days of your big day. So it's best to be sure you are really organised with a trial run. If you are having a major cosmetic surgery treatment, you'll also want to ensure that there is time for recovery as well as things like dress alterations.
Cosmetic surgery treatments are life changing decisions, so we always recommend being totally sure before opting for one. It is generally accepted that brides or grooms choosing to have cosmetic surgery before the wedding are not just doing it because they want to look their best for their wedding day, but that it is more about starting a new chapter in their life, and starting the chapter as the person they have always aspired to be, both emotionally and physically.
If you are opting to have any form of cosmetic treatment, from the smaller and less invasive treatments to major surgery, please consult a licensed professional and do your homework to make sure they have all the necessary insurances and qualifications before you go ahead.

Beauty, Hair & Makeup FAQ
We generally recommend booking your wedding hair and makeup 6-9 months in advance of the day. The most popular hair artists and make-up experts will get booked up quickly and often, if your wedding date is a Saturday in the summer, you may have to book sooner than this to avoid missing out on your first choice.
Most bridal hair and makeup artists strongly recommend having a wedding hair and makeup trial 6-8 weeks before the wedding. This gives you a chance to test out some looks, give feedback to your MUA or hair stylist, and test the hairstyle and makeup for longevity.
Your stylist will be able to talk you through exactly what to expect at your trial, but generally this is an opportunity to test out the look you’re hoping to wear on the day. Often your stylist will only try out one look and may make tweaks, but sometimes they’ll try more than one style. Trials are a great way to test how long the looks will last so any adjustments needed can be noted for your wedding day. Regardless, you should attend your hair trial with the length, colour and cut you expect to have on the day itself for the best results. Top Tip: Wear a top in the same colour and with a similar neckline to your wedding dress so you can envisage the whole look and see which colours complement it best!
You should allow for 60-90 minutes for hair and the same for makeup. However, this of course depends on the complexity of your desired bridal hair and makeup.
Costs will vary depending on your hair and makeup artist, and how many people you’re booking wedding hair and makeup for! If you’re paying for your wedding party to have their hair and make-up done, including bridesmaids, flower girls and mothers of the bride and groom, then your costs will go up. On average, a bride will spend around £250 - £400 on wedding hair and makeup, depending on the level of luxury and the experience of the artist(s) they pick!
