A chance to escape to warmer climes go tie the knot! Such a wonderful idea and will create lasting memories for years to come. We are inspired by travel, languages, culture, nature and a destination encapsulates all of those elements! We understand that it can be daunting with language barriers and varying cultural tastes that finding a Make-up Artist is essential to how you will feel on the day.
A destination travel wedding can sound dreamy, magical and out of the box when talking about it. But planning on paper can be tiresome due to a range of logistical challenges unfamiliar to yourself or your country. One of these challenges is lacking the knowledge and resources to find the best hair and makeup artist that compliments you and your bridal party.
With friendly hair and makeup experts on hand, we reduce the risk of upset and instill confidence in your destination wedding hair and makeup by travelling to your event. Our founder and highly skilled artists regularly travel to international destinations making their brides look breathtaking.
What is a Destination Wedding?
When the term “destination wedding” crops up in conversation, it can sometimes be difficult to define as it’s different for almost everyone. Often destination weddings are ceremonies away from your town and city, most of the time abroad. They’re commonly hosted in a faraway location with picturesque scenery like beaches, mountains and more. Sometimes they’re in a hotel or resort.
What you Can Expect From our Destination Wedding Hair and Makeup Service
Save the headache of organising any logistics arrangements, as we book our own accommodation, flights and transport from the airport/hotel. Our custom curated services ensure you’re prepared for your trial or wedding day without hesitation.
We’re available when you need us too over zoom consultations. Leading up to your special day, we can discuss styles and looks and even send you an inspirational mood board before your trial. On the day of the trial, we consider external factors that may need to be adjusted according to your destination.
For instance, if you’re getting married in the summer or in a hot climate ranging from 35-50 degrees, we’ll need to factor in waterproof makeup and hair products that promote longevity. Regardless of where you get married, we’ll also give you a full sized-lipstick you have chosen at the trial and mini-touch up kit to keep on throughout the day.
Why Professional Hair and Makeup is Essential for Destination Weddings
If you’re not organised, destination wedding hair and makeup can be a major stressor and headache. Professional hair and makeup artists can save you a lot of worries and angst for your destination wedding.
If they live in your home country, they can meet you beforehand and secure your look before your big day comes. There are no last-minute touch ups or revisions to get your makeup sorted with a foreign hair and makeup artist you’re unfamiliar with. Plus, they know exactly about your skin and hair type to save time revising your look on your big day. Their familiar face will be calming on the morning of your wedding day.
The Convenience of On-Location Services
On location services save you valuable time researching and looking for makeup and hair artists in your chosen destination. Plus, they already know you and your bridal party’s requirements allowing them to easily prepare accordingly.

When it comes to destination weddings, there’s no limitation to where our team can travel to. We’ve previously travelled to destinations like Spain and even further afield for our clients. Just let us know in advance about your destination wedding details.

Trials can work depending on where you’re located. Most of the time, our trials normally happen in London, four months before the wedding, but it can be sooner if you’re not in Europe.
