Alicia's Bridal Hair and Make-up is a London-based wedding make-up and hair styling service.
During all the recent Royal Coronation celebrations, I had the great fortune of helping these lovely ladies to get ready for their special event; a royal engagement attended by the newly crowned King and Queen!! 💜
If you’re interested in special event or red carpet hair and makeup by an award winning stylist, feel free to contact me.
Here are some beautiful photographs courtesy of Rosanna Hancock Photography of a wonderful wedding I worked on in Buckinghamshire.
The bride decided on a textured, relaxed and romantic hair style, adorned with plaits and glowing, radiant make-up.
The bride and her bridesmaids chose to wear some lovely handmade flower garlands in their hair too, which worked wonderfully with the rustic, English country wedding style.
Here are a selection of some of the lovely images. Enjoy!

Here are some wonderful photographs by Barney Walters Photography of a country wedding I worked on earlier in the year. The bride and groom were super lucky with the weather and had bright sunshine all day! In the end, the lovely bride Laura decided on a plaited but structured updo complemented by defined eye make-up and natural glowing complexion.
Thanks very much to Barney too for taking the time to share the pictures with me - they're super!
Congratulations to the gorgeous couple!

Here are a selection of some of the wonderful weddings I have been involved in over the past few months. The locations ranged from sunny Surrey, to London's Kensington and leafy Herefordshire. I endeavour to keep each look personal to the bride, reflecting their individual style and the style of the wedding. So, as you'll see, the hairstyles range from sleek and sophisticated to gorgeously tousled and relaxed and the make-up from natural and radiant to smokey and defined, each one just as beautiful as the last:

“Alicia is fantastic! She was so patient and helpful during my hair trial, and really customised it to what I wanted, I felt she understood what I wanted and worked very hard to come up with something that I loved! On the day she re-created it perfectly but also still had opportunity to tweak according to my last minute thoughts! She has been so supportive, helpful and friendly throughout, and I’m so glad she was my hairstylist and a part of our wedding day :)”
“I was thrilled with Alicia’s help and service. She was so calm and also such fun to have around. Her presence on the day both calmed me down and made us all laugh. It was lovely to hear about her wedding the month before mine too. She interpreted my requests perfectly and my family said I looked amazing but still like ‘me’ rather than an over-made up bride. She was fantastic in every way and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”
“I was absolutely delighted with the professional services of Alicia in the months running up to my wedding day. I had the opportunity of two trials - which really helped to perfect my ‘finished look’ on the day. I was so very happy with the beautiful make up provided and Alicia’s expert touch and knowledge. The intimate hours in the run up to the ceremony on your wedding day is a very special time and Alicia was the perfect person who kept me calm as well as producing wonderful make up for me.”
“Alicia did an amazing job!!! The make up looked so natural and flawless. She listened carefully to what I wanted and created exactly what I had envisaged. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the end result. It made me feel so confident on such a important and special day.”
“Alicia was absolutely amazing both in person and profession. I looked better than I ever could have thought possible on the day and owe all my amazing photos to how well she did my hair. The hair trial was great fun, she was patient, enthusiastic and supportive in all my choices. She gave me the chance to express what it was I was looking for as well as making positive and valuable advice. Thank you so much.”
As most of you will probably be aware, at the beginning of November I was awarded Best Wedding Hair Stylist of 2013. I have since had the pleasure of being invited to the glamorous and exclusive Savoy Hotel where I received my award.
It was a wonderful afternoon and a fantastic opportunity for all the winners to meet one another and celebrate together! We were also all treated to an exquisite meal at The Savoy's in-house restaurant. We were definitely spoilt and lots of bubbly was enjoyed by all!
Here are some of the professional shots taken on the day:
