Ayrshire brides - hair and make up recommendations

rock-on, 24 April, 2012 at 16:13 Posted on Planning 0 20

I'm getting married this September and need to find someone / people to do hair and make up for me for me and hair for 2 bridesmaids and my mum. Everyone seems to have minimum limits of 3 people, which is fine for the hair, but I only want my make up doing.

Any recommendations be much appreciated!

    Culzean castle would be lovely

    I'll have a look and see

    Ive not really searched for a hairdresser as i'm doing my own (im a hairdresser and dont see the point of paying someone to do it myself)

    'll see if i can find anything.

    Have you got all your other suppliers sorted?

    Couture bridal hair ****

    No idea if any good but found this one

    Search yell for mobile beauticians or make up artists in Ayrshire and see what comes up. If need be u couldmaybe book an early appointment at a salon to have this done?

    We are more or less sorted out - cake but think that sorted just waiting on her getting back to me

    Our band is coming from ayr but they not a ceilidh band so cant help you with that.

    dont envy you trying to sort a wedding out when you no where near where you getting married.

    What date is your wedding? What kind of styles are you wanting for the hair?

    Your best bet is to find someone who can do hair and make up so your minimum numbers will be ok.

    I can't personally recommend her work but I met a make up artist/hairdresser called Jennifer Peffer at a Glasgow wedding fair and she might travel to ayrshire. If you google her name then her website comes up, she's on facebook too.

    Good luck

    My wife used stardusts and she was stunning on our special day, so we always recommend stardusts!

    We also recommend Jennifer Peffer and Sophie Edwards Hair and Makeup

    Hope this helps you

    Thanks for everyone's recommendations...I have trials for both hair and make up booked in with Brides to be and Helen McEwen, both also recommendations. I have also contacted Stardusts based on everyone's recommendation here, just not sure I can fit another trial in on the next weekend visit (trying to plan a wedding in Scotland when living in Surrey has its challenges)!

    Thanks again for your help!

    Just wanted to let you know that I had my trials this weekend and am really pleased with my choices.

    Bride to be Scotland for my hair. Maureen who owns the company is lovely, but busy on my wedding day. Lorna did my trial on Friday and tried a few different styles til we found the one that was right for me! I am really pleased she will be doing my hair on the big day!!

    Helen Mcewan will be doing my make up...I told her the kind of think I was and wasn't looking for at the trial and she was able to do exactly what I was looking for.

    Would totally suggest the above ladies for hair n make up...very friendly and most importantly great at what they do...can't wait to see them again on the wedding morning!!!
