Bridal Makeup & Hair
Adele’s exclusive bridal service is unique in that she provides pre-set day packages, employing a larger team of professionals for large weddings.
The services include traveling to venues with an entire portable make-up studio, complete with makeup chair & lighting equipment aswell as a state of the art compressor for Air Brush Make-up application.
High Definition Airbrush foundation
The revolutionary Air Brush make-up application was originally devised for the media industry as an answer to the unforgiving crystal clear HD camera images. Due to its highly durable benefits, it is one of the most sought after methods of makeup application for brides world-wide. Adele uses the airbrush technique to apply silicon-based products from the US, which give an amazing flawless finish to skin and remains completely waterproof. You won’t even know you are wearing it!
On the Trial Day
The trial will be held at my studio unless otherwise discussed . I will have my full kit (If coming to you the neighbours will wonder whats going on as i look like I'm moving in!) and I will need a good size table or a surface to set it up on as well as natural light if possible.
We will sit down and firstly double check all of the details on your booking form then discuss the look you want to achieve.
It’s very helpful to have any pictures of ideas you may have.
You could follow my Facebook page or Instagram for inspiration of my recent brides as well as look through magazines or celebrity looks you may like to try.
A picture of your dress and any accessories you may be wearing will help me work out what will be best for you.
If you feel you may need hair extensions to achieve the look you desire, it would be really helpful to have them on your trial too.
I can just as easily do your trial without these items though and we can get a good idea for the ‘big day look’, but obviously it will all come together much better on the wedding day.
Some people choose to have trials for their bridesmaids, this needs to take place on the same day as your bridal trial.
The trials can sometimes take longer than expected because we are discussing ideas and it’s a very relaxed atmosphere, so please keep that in mind. At the end of the trial I will take pictures of the look and make notes of products used which I will keep in your file.
I will also tell you which products we used on the lips and any other products I feel would benefit you throughout the day for small touch ups, such as blotting tissues or translucent powder.
I enjoy working together with you to create your perfect look so always be sure to tell me of anything you’re not sure about as that’s what the trial is all about!
Please note that trials are to be paid for at the time of booking them.
On the Wedding Day
I will arrive at the agreed time on the morning (usually bright and early!) Don’t worry brides are usually up at the crack of dawn!
I will then need to set up my kit ready for action. Every wedding is different and I adapt to fit each wedding but usually this is how I tend to work things.
If it’s a large wedding I will have my assistant with me. Then dependent on the style I like to start by setting/prepping the brides hair. This then leaves the bride free to relax during the morning and have breakfast and be available whilst flowers arrive etc.
I then like to work though the bridal parties hair one by one until the hair is completed. I will then move onto makeup.
Once the majority of the bridal party is complete I will return back to the bride to complete the whole look, finishing the hair and applying the makeup. At this point the bride can take her last moment to relax, maybe have a glass of champagne and take everything in, before beginning to put on her dress.
Once the bride is looking gorgeous, I will then finish of any last makeups and any touch ups needed whilst the bride is getting dressed. I will attach the veil or make any last touch ups to the bride to make sure she is completely happy and then my job is done!
I will pack away my kit and leave you to have an amazing day!
I love receiving professional images from your special day to add to my collection of beautiful brides, so feel free to send me any you are particularly proud of that show your hair and makeup off!
Please note for Bride only bookings I may take more than one booking on your date if logistically possible.
