Wedding Essentials - Hair & Beauty

Here's the latest on hair and beauty for brides...

Royal Treatment

“I would like to formally acknowledge and applaud Abigael Johnston, who did the make-up for myself and my bridesmaids... I was looking for someone I could trust and a result that was natural yet would suit our photography. Abigael listened to really understand what I wanted, then provided all relevant information in detail. I was never treated like a number or just another client. On the day Abigael was fantastic, getting everything perfect in plenty of time. In doing so it kept us calm, as we were completely confident and comfortable, and also ensuring that the girls were beautiful in their individual differences. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending Abigael as a lovely, professional person who has incredible ability and attention to detail.” Alana, married October 28, 2011.
