Any Individual or Bridal Packages can be arranged to meet your needs.
The wedding between Mairi McRae and Ramesh Siva took place in the beautiful setting of Inverlochy Castle in Invernesshire.
The wonderful ceremony involved the bride adorning two wedding dresses, one silver satin full length skirt and bodice/corsette top, then a vibrant red and gold sari in honour of her Srilankan husband. The make-up was adapted to suit each outfit.


For your special day to go as smoothly as possible, we first arrange a consultation to discuss styles and ideas.
It can be helpful if the future bride collects pictures of make-up and hair styles she is considering. Then a realistic assessment can be made as to whether it is achievable.

It is important to balance your bridal outfit correctly with the style of hair, make-up, accessories.

Hair types vary enormously and will dictate what styles are possible in most cases. There are always many options.

Skin analysis is vital to ensure your complexion is at its best on your big day. Any facials or treatments should stop 2 weeks before your wedding day. This minimises the risk of breakouts or reactions to products which could effect the big day. So, allow your skin rebalance and show the benefit from deep cleansing facial treaments you have had.

There are so many make-up options these days. Countless 'finishes' e.g: light reflecting, matt, natural finish, sculpted look, etc, etc etc,......I would not recommend any shiny finishes that would conflict with flash photography.
Waterproof mascara is a must for those tears of joy! That or an eyelash tint in advance.( be sure and allergy test first)

The trial involves trying out eyeshadow/lipstick/blusher/foundation shades, tones and each products performance to see which is best suited to you, your colouring and complexion.

Manicures and pedicures the day before are a good idea...nerves and nail polish don't mix !!
