Abbie and her team were absolutely amazing, from my trial to the big day they knew exactly what everyone asked for and made us all look amazing.
10/10, will definitely use again for future events!
They make you feel so comfortable and are so chatty as well which makes it less awkward.
Thank you again for doing such a wonderful job for me and my bridal party.

As soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted Luxe Beauty to do my wedding makeup, and they did not disappoint!
Abbie and Megan are incredible at what they do, everyone's makeup was perfection.
My mum was worried about having her makeup done as she rarely wears any, but when she saw how beautiful Megan made her look, she couldn't stop smiling.
As the bride I think it's always nerve-wracking trusting someone with something as important as your wedding makeup, but Abbie put me at ease, and I knew I was in very safe hands.
All day long I was complimented, and I was gutted at the end of the night to have to take my makeup off - it lasted all day and night and still looked as stunning as when Abbie had finished that morning!
Thank you so much Luxe Beauty for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day, and for making my girls and my mum look so stunning too.

Abbie did my wedding make up last week as well as all of my bridesmaids and we were all so impressed with her work and she made us all feel pretty!
She was friendly, professional and just a genuinely lovely person to have around on the morning of my wedding.
Not only did she give us all high quality glam, she went the extra mile and was really helpful holding the two babies who were getting fussy amongst the wedding morning chaos and her calming presence soothed them off to sleep which just goes above and beyond what I expected when I booked my bridal make up, and she didn't complain once she in fact emphasised she will help in any way she can.
She also offered to put some lipgloss on my 2 year old flower girl to make her feel involved in the make up, which actually made for one of the most memorable moments of my whole day when she looked at her reflection in the mirror and her whole face lit up which was just lovely.
Thank you Abbie for everything, you were more than brilliant! I will definitely recommend Abbie and Luxe to everyone!

Abbie and the team were amazing from start to finish.
From booking in 2021 Abbie would respond to all of my messages offering support and advise. No question was a silly question and this made the whole booking so much easier.
After adding an additional guest for make up not long before the wedding date Abbie did it without hesitation and made the whole process easy.
During my make up trial Megan asked lots of questions and offered lots of different styles so l could see what worked best on me, and for my big day. On my wedding day itself Megan and the Luxe team made myself and 6 others look amazing.
Our make up lasted the whole day and we all had so many compliments on how we all looked. I would recommend Luxe for any occasion, but especially such an important one like your wedding day!
Thank you Abbie and Megan x

Megan was fantastic on my wedding morning.
She not only made us all look and feel amazing but she went above and beyond to make sure the morning went smoothly.
My make up was exactly how I wanted it and lasted perfectly all day and night.
I can’t thank her enough for being part of my special day and helping me feel confident in my own skin! 🤍

Abbie and Megan were absolutely amazing on our wedding morning!
Everyone's make up looked absolutely stunning and everyone was so happy with it.
Abbie did my make up (bride) and she knew exactly what she was using from the trial and checked before we started whether anything had changed.
She then went above and beyond and last minute steamed my veil as everyone else had already had their hair and make up done.
I cannot recommend Luxe Beauty enough!

I cannot thank you enough!
You made my mum, my sister and I all glow!
I felt like a superstar all thanks to you.
The makeup survived rain, tears, smiles and laughter and I absolutely loved it. Thank you so much, Abbie.
I cannot wait to get all glammed up by you again 🥰

Could not have asked for a better glam squad.
I've been coming to Abbie for years so as soon as I got engaged there was no doubt in my mind who would be with me on my wedding morning!
I've heard so many people say how stressful and hectic the wedding morning is but that was absolutely NOT the case for us!
Abbie knew exactly what vibe I was going for with my non-traditional bridal look and absolutely more than delivered.
Being so glam but also feeling like ME was so so important.
Georgie did and incredible job with bridesmaids and mother of the groom too.
The wedding morning was an absolute pleasure and I'd love to do it all over again!

I was recommended Abbie and the Luxe team by my sisters in laws who had used her at their own weddings!
On the morning of the wedding Abbie and Megan were just amazing despite the chaos around them!
They definitely had their hands full not only doing my bridal makeup but also 9 other faces as well!
Both Abbie and Megan were so friendly and well-prepared with all of us and each bridesmaid looked so beautiful.
I absolutely loved my bridal makeup and so did my bridesmaids. We all got so many compliments throughout the day and the makeup didn’t budge at all - even in the 27 degree heat!
I cannot recommend Luxe Beauty enough - they’re a team of very talented makeup artists who are professional, dependable and so easy to work with.
Thank you so much Abbie! Xxx

All my bridesmaids loved her, she listened to every request and completed all the looks effortlessly.

Abbie and Megan did my bridal makeup and my bridal party and I can’t thank you enough for how you made us all look and feel!
You were both so lovely and listened to what each individual person wanted.
I also had a makeup trial with Abbie which I would really recommend as it allowed us to make any tweaks on the day.
My makeup lasted all day and was flawless.
Thank you so much for making me feel so beautiful.
Can you do please come and do my makeup everyday?!

I can't thank Megan and Georgie enough for the morning of my wedding and doing 9 people's makeup.
That's a lot to get through and they did such an amazing job of each and everyone, no one felt rushed and timing was perfection.
Even some funny stories told. I would defiantly recommend Luxe Beauty to anyone looking for a make-up artist for their wedding day as the looks created were classy, natural and flawless.
The girls listened to what everyone wanted and I was so happy when the makeup stayed put all day even with the photos taken outside in the rain and the humidity on the dance floor.
Thank you girls for being part of our special day.
Lauren
Thank you so much Abbie for making me feel a million dollars for my wedding day.
I don’t normally wear a heavy amount of make up and although I had a full face of make up it felt completely natural.
I chose Luxe because I knew Abbie and wanted someone that I could trust to reduce worries on my wedding day and I’m so happy with my decision.
All of my bridesmaids were happy with their make up and commented on how lovely it looked.
Thank you so much Abbie for making us all feel beautiful! ❤️

I just wanted to drop you a quick msg to say a HUGE thank you to Megan for her service on Saturday for my wedding.
I LOVED my wedding make up and all my bridesmaids and my mum loved theirs too.
Megan was so helpful on the morning, she was calm and chatty and helped all the girls decide what they wanted. She ran perfectly to time and was very happy to do all the last minute touch ups we requested.
I hope Megan enjoys her travels and I'll definitely be booking you ladies again for future events.
I would definitely recommend Luxe to future brides!
Thanks again

I got married on 17th June 23. Abbie did the make up for my 2 bridesmaids, my mother, my auntie and myself.
She did an amazing job, we all looked stunning!
Abbie was very professional and knew actually what kind of make up/look we wanted. We were all so happy with the outcome and all got so many compliments on the day.
Abbie is lovely and friendly making you feel relaxed and at ease.
I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a make up artist for any special occasion.

Abbie is absolutely amazing at what she does and made me feel a million dollars on my wedding day.
She really understood what it was I wanted at my bridal trial and had her own recommendations which pulled the whole look together.
Myself, bridesmaids and mum were all really happy with our make up on the wedding day it lasted all day long as well!
Thank you so much Abbie x

I knew the second we got engaged that I wanted Luxe to do my wedding make-up. Having been coming to Luxe for many, many years there was no one else I would trust on the most important day,
I made sure Abbie was free and happy to travel to Spain before I confirmed our venue date!
Firstly, the trial - Abbie did an amazing job. She made me feel truly "bridal", and different to all the other times I'd had my make-up done, but still like myself.
On the morning of the wedding, it was an absolute pleasure and honour to have Abbie there with us. She brought great vibes, had amazing advice generally about any wedding nerves.
Abbie did the make-up for myself 4 bridesmaids and both our mums, everybody loved their make-up. The other suppliers that we're there on the morning all said how amazing the make-up is (the best wedding make-up they had ever seen!).
Honestly, I can not recommend Abbie and Luxe beauty enough. Abbie is the best in the business and Luxe beauty is a huge reflection of the talent that all the MUA's there have.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much Abbie xxxxx

Luxe Beauty were an absolute dream to work with and I'm so glad I got in there early enough to secure them for my wedding make up.
Abbie was incredibly responsive and nothing was too much trouble for her (I had a lot of random questions in the lead up to the wedding!).
On the day, Megan and Georgie were both fantasitc. We had 8 faces in total including six bridesmaids (a couple were quite nervous about what to expect) but the girls were brilliant at reassuring them and making sure everyone was comfortable.
They were early on the day, well-prepared and easy going. As soon as I sat down in the chair with Megan I felt my nerves just slipping away!
We got a lot of compliments from guests and all the bridesmaids looked stunning.
As a side note, I really love how Luxe Beauty have their own line of blenders and lashes too.
The lashes are lovely and stayed on all day/night!

Abbie & Megan were our make up artists for my wedding back in April and they were more than we could have ever hoped for!
We had the bride, 4 bridesmaids and a Mother of the bride and having 2 artists just made the morning run so smoothly!
From the very beginning, Abbie made the whole process so easy - from initial information, booking, trials and all the way up to getting organised for the big day, I couldn't have asked for anything more.
I have never received so many compliments - my make up was completely flawless and didn't budge all day.
Abbie and her artists are so talented and knowledgeable and made us all feel amazing!
I would book Luxe again in a heartbeat and would advise anyone who is planning their wedding to do the same - it's the best decision you'll make!

Abbie was absolutely great on the morning of my wedding.
My MOH, and both my mum and mother-in-law looked fab and I was so pleased with my makeup.
It lasted all day and I had so many compliments.
The little survival kit for the day that I got from Abbie was also a great touch and very useful (especially the tissues!)
Thank you so much x

Thank you to Megan and the Luxe Beauty team for our beautiful wedding makeup.
Megan was so lovely and patient with me throughout the trial and the day itself.
She was so sweet to all of us chatting away and making us feel relaxed.
We all felt amazing with our makeup and it was perfect all day and in the photos.
Thank you again for helping to make the day so special xxxxx

Abbie and Megan were the artists who did myself and my beautiful bridesmaids makeup on my wedding morning.
I can not recommend them enough!
In my trial we went through options and what I liked and didn’t like and how I would like to differ my makeup to my bridesmaids and the final look on the day was better than I could have ever hoped for!
Looking forward to having my makeup done by them again in august as a bridesmaid!!
Thankyou so much xx

I had my make up done by Abbie a few times and knew that i would want her to do mine on my wedding day.
On the day, Abbie and Georgie came along and made everyone feel so relaxed. Just what you need on the morning of a wedding.
All of our make up looked absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much for all your help and making everyone feel comfortable.
Loved having you be a part of our day xxxxx

I’d had my make up done by LUXE when I had been a bridesmaid. I really loved how they did it, so when we booked our wedding, it was a no brainer!!
Communication was amazing throughout. I booked a make up trial for myself and my maid of honour and we both loved it!
Megan was so friendly and asked us how we’d like it and changed or added anything we said.
On the day, the make up artists did 6 bridesmaids, myself and my mum. It was so relaxed and both girls were so so lovely!!
They did each person’s make up how they wanted it and made sure everyone was 100% happy with the look.
I got a little touch up kit at the end which was a really thoughtful touch.
LUXE have been amazing throughout and I would absolutely recommend!!
Everyone looked so beautiful. Thank you so much!

I booked in with Luxe Beauty early on in my wedding planning process. Abbie responded to all messages and emails very quickly.
I had to postpone my wedding twice due to Covid and Abbie made the whole process of moving my booking across so easy.
I had two make up trials which was great to meet Abbie before the wedding and to try out a couple of different looks.
On my wedding day Abbie was on time, helped me and my bridal party look and feel amazing.
Abbie played a key part in keeping me calm leading up to the ceremony.
My make up lasted all night and looked amazing for the whole day.
I cannot thank Abbie enough for her patience and work leading up to and on my wedding day.
Highly recommend Luxe Beauty to all brides!

Abbie recently did mine and my bridal party's make up for my wedding, she was beyond amazing!
Everyone looked stunning! Abbie was able to create the perfect look for every one of us and made us all feel beautiful.
Abbie was so professional, friendly and ensured we were all ready on time.
The make up lasted all night (even after hours of dancing in the heat), from start to finish Abbie was brilliant, would highly recommend and will definitely be booking again in the future!
thank you so much Abbie, I have never felt so beautiful in my life

I had booked Abbie for my wedding years in advance as due to covid it was postponed and she was SO accommodating throughout that period.
I felt so relaxed at my trial and all the way through to the big day Abbie was amazing.
I adored my makeup on my wedding day it was exactly what I wanted - and everyone else loved theirs too!
I felt so comfortable the whole time as did the others, many of which don’t regularly get their makeup done but everyone just looked stunning.
I couldn’t recommend Luxe Beauty more x

Perfect service as usual!
Everything went smoothly from the moment they arrived.
Every bridesmaid was over the moon with their makeup even though none of them had been for a trial.
My makeup was flawless and if i hadn’t removed it 18 hours later it would have lasted two days!

I can't thank the ladies enough for helping me with my wedding makeup!
I am someone who never wears makeup and isn't overly comfortable wearing it.
I couldn't tell them what I wanted but they were able to give me the perfect look that I was so happy with and so comfortable wearing!
They were so professional and friendly and made sure we all looked beautiful!
Thank you!

I am so thankful to Abbie, she did an absolutely amazing job on my wedding day.
All of the makeup was flawless; my bridesmaids, mum and I were delighted.
Abbie was professional, but she was also like another friend getting ready with us, which helped us all (me especially) to stay clam and relaxed.
We were all ready with plenty of time to spare for touch ups and I loved the wedding day emergency makeup kit, that was such a lovely extra touch- she went above and beyond.
I would highly recommend Abbie and I would definitely use her servces again!
Thank you Abbie for all your care and attention.

We were all so happy with what you had done, and you helped make the experience of the morning chilled and good fun.
I love how well you and Charlie work together and get on, so that is just a bonus!
I thought I would share some pictures from the day, as we now have all the professional photographs back

I cannot thank Abbie and Georgie enough for the amazing makeup they created for myself and bridal party!
My sister, mum and I had a trial with Abbie and Georgie prior to the wedding and I instantly knew I had made a great decision in booking them.
They were so friendly, they put us instantly at ease and they listened to exactly what we wanted.
On the day of the wedding, they arrived on time and were so professional and friendly throughout. It was a lovely, relaxed morning and it was such a pleasure to have Abbie and Georgie there with us.
They created flawless makeup looks for myself, my bridesmaids and my mum, again asking us what we liked/didn’t like about make up in general so they could create a perfect look for us and they ensured we were 100% happy with the makeup.
The makeup they used was high quality, it stayed in place all day and night and even looked good still the following day!!
Abbie made me feel so beautiful and confident which is what every bride wants on her big day and we all had so many compliments on our makeup.
I am over the moon that I chose Luxe Beauty for my wedding makeup, I would not hesitate to use them again and would recommend to all my family and friends.
Thank you ladies! Xxx

From start to finish my experience with Abbie and the team was wonderful.
When i described what i wanted in the trial she completely understood and i felt at ease.
The morning of the wedding Abbie & Emma were fantastic, my bridesmaids loved the make up.
I cant thank them enough for making my children feel special and apart of the day they loved the little glam they added and it really made the morning very special for me.
It really is the little details that make a moment. Thank you girls!!

Wow where do I start… I was recommended Abbie by a friend and from the moment we spoke I felt at ease so I knew instantly I wanted her to do my bridal make up, she talked me through what to expect on the day and how everything would work, I explained how I usually have my make up and Abbie listened to every minor detail. Unfortunately my wedding was postponed due to COVID but Abbie was able to accommodate our new date and she was always checking in on me throughout the year to check everything was ok, she really did go above and beyond! When I went for my trial we spoke in more detail about my likes and dislikes and during the trial Abbie told me about the products she was using and explained everything to me, I walked away from my trial so happy and so excited for my Wedding day, my make up looked perfect and there was nothing I wanted to change!
Onto the big day…Abbie & Georgie arrived at the venue and they both worked so well together to do everyone’s make up, to my mum, my step mum, my mother in law, my bridesmaids and myself every single one of us looked absolutely beautiful! I could see how happy everyone was with their make up and that made me happy too, the girls catered to everyone’s individual needs and made sure that everyone felt comfortable on the day. Unfortunately my Honeymoon got cancelled on the Wedding morning so it was no longer about just being a make up artist it was about being an emotional support for me too. Everyone could see how gutted I was and Abbie and Georgie really did help me overcome these emotions on the day with their encouraging and supporting words, they managed to keep me calm so I was able to sort my Honeymoon out for the third time during my make up. Abbie was so calm and relaxed whilst doing my make up so this allowed me to also relax and enjoy the moment- thank you so much for being more than just make up artists.
Everyone said how well their make up lasted on the day, and I can speak for myself mine did not budge at all. I danced the night away and got a bit sweaty, I cried several tears and I still looked flawless by the end of the night. I had so many compliments and I really did look amazing, thank you so much to Abbie for making me look like a princess on the day and to both of you for making my bride tribe look absolutely beautiful too. I cannot recommend you enough, you are so much more than just make up artists and are absolutely amazing at what you do! ❤️

I had the pleasure of Abbie doing my make up for my special day.
As someone who wears minimal makeup I decided to have a trial. Abbie listened to all my likes & dislikes, she talked through products, colours & gave her professional advice while keeping my wishes in mind. We played around with lipstick colours & even after my trial I still changed my mind!
On the day, Abbie was fab. She created looks on my bridal party to suit each individual skin type but tying them all in together. Together we adapted my trial to give me ‘my perfect look’ that I felt confident & comfortable in.
It lasted all day & through many photos in the direct sunlight, bad dancing & the tears!
As a bride, I felt the best me & I think that was the most important bit, to feel the best version of me & I absolutely did!

Abbie you are truly amazing!!
Throughout the whole process you were attentive and thoughtful. From the enquiry to booking through to trials and the wedding day.
Nothing was ever too much trouble and you took any stress and worry away.
You made us all feel like a million dollars but I always knew you would!
Thank you I couldn’t have asked for more. Your calm attitude and organised ways meant that bridal prep in the morning was relaxed and enjoyable, we got to spent the morning sipping fizz whilst you ran around after us making us look our very best alongside our hairdresser.
Your talent and passion shines through every time I see you.
Thank you for everything, I felt amazing on our special day and it lasted all day and into the night.
A friend I have gained in the madness of wedding planning!

I could not fault Abbie from the moment I messaged her to tell her my date of my wedding and having my fingers crossed that she was available, right until I walked down the aisle 13 months later!
As soon as I was engaged I knew I wanted Abbie and her team to do my makeup after using Luxe for many years since it began.
Luxe was AMAZING at making me feel at ease and special during my makeup trial with my chief bridesmaid. Discussing the day, getting excited and having your makeup done whilst having a bottle of prosecco.
What could be better?
Abbie, as per, got it spot on first try and I knew I was going to love the make up on the day.
The morning of the wedding was so laid back and lovely with all my bridesmaids getting ready and a huge part of that was down to the Luxe team giving us the ultimate glow up!
Thank you so much for making this brides day and being so easy and amazing from start to finish. Xx

Told about Luxe by a friend and everyone I spoke to said good things about them.
It was very easy to book date for makeup on wedding day.
They where brilliant, had no problems rearranging wedding date and trial because of covid.
At trial everyone working there was lovely and so welcoming.
Abbie looked over photos, listened to how we wanted our makeup to look and adapted them to suit us. Throughout asking us if we where happy and wanted to change anything.
Trial was worth every penny, we all looked so beautiful.
On the wedding day the makeup looked amazing and made me feel so beautiful.
Thank you so much.

Wow! Well what can really say.
From a female who had never had her make up professionally done ever not knowing what was actually going to happen.
Abbie made me feel so calm and turned me into a queen! My make up lasted all day and didn't look any different by the time I'd gone to bed.
Abbie arrived early and made all 4 of us comfortable. She worked really well along side my hairdresser and everyone was very happy with the result of their make up.
Abbie gave us her opinions and also took on board what we all asked of her.
Would truly recommend abbie and the team to anyone who needs their make up done. Thank you so much!

Abbie was absolutely amazing on my wedding day and I couldn’t recommend her more.
I was feeling anxious about make up for my wedding day as I’m not a girl who has ever been particularly into make up and I had never had it done professionally before.
Abbie was so so wonderful, she is just such a lovely and approachable person and really put me at ease and listened to what I wanted. I had a trial at Her premises in Whittlesey which are lovely and immaculate and on the day she came to the house and set up. She was a lovely and calm person to have there on the morning. She did my make up and one of my bridesmaids and even helped my mum with a fake eyelash emergency even though my mum wasn’t booked in with her.
My make up was done so beautifully and lasted the whole day including lots of dancing! I felt completely glowing and still like me. I was so happy with how it turned out and it gave me so much more confidence. I would really encourage anyone to book Abbie, especially if you are someone who is a bit apprehensive about having their make up done as she was just so wonderful and did an amazing job!
