Yes, absolutely!
With a background of managing large teams & ensuring efficiency, large group bookings are my strong point.
The largest wedding party I did in 2025 was for 9 people, all hair and makeup & only myself and 1 of my assistants - we had everyone completed in 5.5 hours.
I do also have multiple artists that I trust to look after my clients if you are needing multiple artists at different locations.

It depends on the event & how much importance the final look has for the event.
Trials are not compulsory, although they are highly recommended. This is not only to see if you like the hair and/or makeup style you selected, but it also gives us an idea of how well the hair and makeup lasts & if there are any changes that need to be made to make you feel more like yourself, or more glamorous.

I may have limited availability for last-minute requests but I will always do my best to fit you in.
Feel free to reach out via my contact form & if I cannot help you, I will send you a list of other trusted hair and makeup artists that might be able to :)
