Wedding Hair – Gosfield Hall

By Gail Gardner / February 19, 2015 / 0 Comments

After another crazy week of wedding trials and working on the backstage makeup rehearsals for a CATS production,  I am looking forward to creating a beautiful hairstyle for my bride on Saturday.  My lovely bride Hannah is getting married at the beautiful Gosfield Hall.  Hannah has a large bridal party, so I will enjoy creating some lovely hairstyles for Hannah and her four bridesmaids.  I will try and upload a photo of Hannah on Twitter before she takes her vows so do look out for that.  I am also enjoying working on a production of CATS, we are in the rehearsal stages so I cannot upload any photos of my beautiful cats makeup yet but hope to do so later next month.   I am very proud to have also become an official Love Lust List supplier of Rock My Wedding.   RMW handpick their suppliers so I am feeling very pleased to be on this rivalled list.

I can see my busy year of weddings just about to start, especially as we head into March so do keep an eye on my professional Facebook page, accessible from the front page of this website.  Also keep an eye on twitter as I do try to put a photo of my bride on their before she makes her journey to take her vows.

Rock My Wedding – Its Official!

By Gail Gardner / February 16, 2015 / 0 Comments

I am so happy to have been officially selected to be on the Rock My Weddings Love Lust List.  Only the chosen few get hand selected to be on this list and I am so pleased to be one of them.  The Love Lust List is a list of carefully selected suppliers that offer a first class service and outstanding work and commitment to the bride on her wedding day and only the chosen few make it to the list.

Also, another announcement.  I am exhibiting at Hylands House Wedding Fayre on March 1st this year from 11am to 3pm.  I very rarely exhibit due to work commitments but I have a soft spot for Hylands House as this is where I got married on my wedding day, so I will thoroughly enjoy being in that wonderful venue once again.  Do come along and introduce yourself if you are one of my brides to be of 2015/16 or if you just fancy having a chat about any hair issues you may have for your wedding day.  I will be taking bookings on the day.

Mulberry House Wedding Hair and Makeup

By Gail Gardner / February 7, 2015 / 0 Comments

Very early start this morning at the wonderful Mulberry House in Ongar.  My parents live in Ongar so I always get a chance to pop in for a coffee when I work at Mulberry House.  Here are some photos of my bride and her bridesmaid today.  I also did the makeup but did not get the chance to take any photos so I will upload them once I get the professional ones back from the photographer.  Gail x

Gosfield Hall Wedding

By Gail Gardner / February 5, 2015 / 0 Comments

Spent another wonderful morning at Gosfield Hall on Tuesday, preparing beautiful Jenni, from Ireland, for her wedding day.  It was the most perfect crisp snowy day, for a February wedding.  I always seem to work at Gosfield Hall when it snows.  I am spending the rest of this week carrying out trials for weddings at Leez Priory, Hedingham Castle and Newland Hall and I finish off my week working at the lovely Mulberry House in Ongar, with a 6am start!

I am receiving lots of enquiries for 2015 / 2016 and I can only apologise to all the brides I have had to turn away this year.  I have a policy of only one wedding per day so that I can give myself up totally for my bride, without having to rush off to another wedding.  I cannot stress enough how important it is to book your wedding suppliers as early as possible.  I have such a busy year this year and I am already taking lots of bookings for 2016 so if you are planning on getting married next year, book your suppliers now.  I have lots of enquiries from very organised brides asking when I will be taking 2017 bookings.  This will be from 1 December this year (2015).
