Is Bridal & Occasion Makeup Right For You?
So many women worry that professional makeup will make them look unlike themselves.
Maybe you want to look more polished, but not too made up. Maybe you are nervous about your makeup lasting all day. Or maybe you have had your makeup done before and felt it was too heavy, too harsh or just not very you.

What happens during a bridal trial?
Your bridal trial is a chance to talk through your wedding plans, your usual makeup, your dress, your colour palette and the kind of look you feel most comfortable with.
Jody will create your bridal makeup with you, making adjustments as needed so you feel happy and confident before the day itself.
The trial is not about guessing. It is about making a plan, checking how the makeup feels and making sure your wedding morning runs as smoothly as possible.
What happens on the wedding day?
On the wedding day, Jody will travel to your location and bring everything needed for your makeup.
Her role is not just to apply makeup, but to help the morning feel calm and organised. She will work with the timings agreed in advance and create a look that feels familiar, polished and ready for photographs, hugs, happy tears and the full day ahead.
What happens during occasion makeup?
For occasion makeup, Jody will talk through the event, what you are wearing and how you want to feel.
Your makeup will then be created around the occasion and your personal style. This might be soft and natural, more polished than your everyday look or something slightly more glamorous, but always in a way that feels comfortable for you.
Occasion makeup is usually done from Jody’s studio unless agreed otherwise.
