Leez Priory – Hair and Makeup Essex

I had the real pleasure of meeting beautiful Anna recently at her hair and makeup trial, which was only a few days before her actual wedding day. Anna brought her parents along with her to the trial as they had travelled over from Russia for the wedding. Her parents were so lovely, even though they could not speak English, I could tell they were lovely friendly people. They both went for a walk whilst I styled Annas hair and makeup. As the trial was ending, I saw Annas parents in my garden, with my husband. Anna and I were amused at the thought of them trying to communicate as they could not speak English but I was so happy when we opened the door to them and they were like old friends. My husband had started communicating with them by pointing at one of our chickens and said ‘Chicken’ and they responded by saying ‘Kuritsa” and so on….it really was a lovely way for them to communicate. Anna is a scientist and was so so interesting to talk to. On the wedding day, Anna and her bridal party got ready in the Priory at the wonderful Leez Priory. Her dress was absolutely incredible and she looked stunning. Her photographer was Liam Gillan Photography who took these fabulous photos. Congratulations Anna. xx
