Words won't do justice to how much of an asset Grainne is to a wedding. Grainne a make up is flawless and she has a true gift at highlighting your beauty and making you feel your best self , she listens and works with every one individually as she knows no two people are the same.
Outside of Grainnes insane talent, she is an absolute diamond of a human being. She has a warm and loving energy that you can't help but relax around, she knows how to create a fabulous atmosphere on the wedding morning and she has us all buzzing with the music playlists she had going. So much love , so many laughs and an incredible talent.
Grainne also captured some of the most incredible content from the morning, she could absolutely have a career in content creation if she wanted.

?Thank you Grainne

Grainne was my makeup artist on the wedding day for myself my mother and 4 bridesmaids.
Grainne arrived bright & early with a smile on her face and straight blended in so easily with everyone

Grainne was so chatty and easy going while getting on with her work at the same time and had the tunes playing creating a great fun atmosphere.

All of the wedding party loved her even the flower girls she let them all sit in the chair giving them some lip gloss they were so delighted

Our makeup was fab and stayed beautifully on us all day . I forgot I was wearing as it was so light. I really feel Grainne went over and beyound for us all on my wedding day I will always remember her so foundly as a lovely part of my wedding morning

Thank you Grainne X

Grainne done my makeup for my wedding day, when I say she went above and beyond for me she truely did. I was in the middle of chemo and had lost my hair, my wedding day was not the day I planned, Grainne made me feel so at ease. As a beauty therapist myself, I can be fussy enough and I couldnt point out one fault in my makeup. My makeup stayed on perfect, as you would imagine it was a very emotional day for me due to my personal health problems and my makeup didnt budge. It felt so natural on my skin and just looked flawless throughout the day. My bridesmaids were also very impressed and if I was to repeat the whole day again I would definitely be having Grainne as my makeup artist because she is so beautifully talented and showed me nothing but kindness. ?You will be a very impressed bride, having Grainne part of your day ?

Gr?inne did my make up when I was a bridesmaid a few years ago. I absolutely loved it, as the make up was flawless and beautiful! Gr?inne was so friendly, bubbly and enthusiastic! I have since booked her for my own wedding in two years time. I know myself and my bridesmaids are in good hands, as she will no doubt do a stunning job!

Grainne was absolutely brilliant from first thing in the morning she came with the music playing and getting everyone in the mood. She made me and the other girls feel amazing she listened to exactly how I liked my makeup i didn’t get to do a trail because I hadn’t got the time so was a bit worried how it would look but couldn’t of been more happy she made me feel amazing couldn’t recommend her enough.

Grainne, what a pleasure it was to have you doing my makeup, as a bride makeup is one of the most important details of the day. Very unsure as I was Planning from Australia but grainne definitely put my mind at ease. Grainne was so professional. I normally don’t wear any makeup and she listened to exactly what I wanted and tried lots of different products until I was happy . My makeup stayed on all day. My bridesmaids loved there's also and we’re giving compliments even at 3 in the morning as it still looked like it had just been applied. Grainne went above and beyond from taking photos of myself and my bridesmaids, applying lip balm on the flower girls so they felt special also.
Grainne was there until the moment I left the house and I would highly recommend any bride what a pleasure to have you on my day x

I had my trial ahead of the big day and we had pinpointed some things I’d like to change for the day just to suit my usual makeup style. I felt gorgeous the whole day. My bridesmaids looked unreal and my mom who hardly wears any makeup was blown away. The best supporter and a calming presence on a hectic morning so couldn’t ask for anything more! Also she took lots of pictures and content which is great to have since wedding photos usually take a while to come in. 10/10 and would recommend to any bride

From the moment I booked Grainne for my wedding day I knew I was in the best hands. From the various emails/chats In the lead up to the wedding she felt like a friend rather than a stranger when she rocked through the door at 5.45am on the morning of the wedding.
Her makeup skills are absolutely flawless and amazing. My makeup did not budge from myself , the bridesmaids or my mother for the whole day. Everyone has complimented on how glowing and flawless our makeup was on both the wedding day and for the day 2 celebrations as we had booked her to come in for the bridal party again for the second day.
Grainne is an amazing makeup artist and has the most warm and friendly personality too. I would definitely without a doubt recommend her to anyone who is still looking for a makeup artist.

Incredible is the first word that comes to mind! Grainne was just an absolute dream to have as our make up artist, not only for the beautiful looks she created but also for the energy and fun she brought to the morning. From the moment I was in touch with Grainne I felt in safe hands and then even more so after my trial! Grainne was amazing at discussing what products she would use on me and why which was so reassuring. On the morning itself, Grainne honestly made us all feel so comfortable and at ease and every one of us went “wow” when we looked in the mirror. She took her time with every one of us and made sure that our make up would not just stay put for the whole day but continue looking amazing for the day…and it absolutely did! I couldn’t thank Grainne enough for helping to make me feel like a real life princess and for adding so much fun and energy to the morning madness. You are a fabulous lady and incredible at what you do, thank you so much for being part of our day Grainne! x

Grainne was extremely professional and she understood that time was a big priority for me. She had to cater for myself, my mother and 4 bridesmaids and we were all ready for snaps etc by 11:40 - allowing time for touch ups also. The morning was very relaxed and fun and this helped to relieve any nerves I had. We felt as though we had a friend in our home doing our make up. Grainne also captured some stunning photos throughout the morning and made a reel for me that I love and have watched it every day since. Thank you Grainne, I would highly recommend.

I couldn't recommend a male up artist more! Grainne was extremely talented and the bride and all the bridesmaid's make up was absolutely gorgeous. Grainne also waited until we were dressed to give everyone a final top up and she was endlessly patient and helpful throughout the whole morning and make getting ready so relaxed and lovely! She snapped pictures and helped with dresses and bracelets and was very patient with any little ones around!

I really appreciated that she really encouraged us to pick the make up we like to wear and she was just so lovely to talk to while we were getting our make up done.

Grainne really added to such a perfect day! She is endlessly talented, my make up has never looked so good and she was just absolutely lovely to be with ❤️

Not only did she create stunning looks for each of us, but the makeup she applied lasted flawlessly throughout the entire day and night. I felt absolutely beautiful and confident, and I owe it all to Grainne's incredible talent and attention to detail. If you want a makeup artist who not only excels at their craft but also makes you feel comfortable and special on your big day, look no further than Grainne. She is simply the best!

Grainne was our makeup artist on the wedding day of my brother in the beautiful Cabra Castle for myself, two sisters, my daughter (teen) and my mother. Grainne was just brilliant, its like she knew us already before she even started ????, she chatted away to us and there was a lovely vibe in the room, the music and the coffee. We have a lovely picture of my 4 year old niece looking up in awe at Grainne doing my daughter's makeup. Its such a class photo.

As a qualified makeup artist myself, I have to give Grainne 10 out of 10, she worked to our skin tone, wedding outfits, mature skin. Our makeup was an art of perfection and there was no touching up throughout the day, Grainne is really a gifted lady. When all makeup applications were completed we were all checked again just for that touch of perfection. Our makeup was just flawless.

I would highly recommend Grainne, thank you for making us all beautiful for my brothers wedding x

She was friendly and professional and someone I was happy to spend my wedding morning with.

I followed Grainne on instagram after a friend recommended her to me I was living abroad so it's difficult trying to organise a wedding when you?re not in the country .From first email with Grainne she was so helpful recommending other suppliers even sourcing accommodation for our Canadian guests .I was unable to get a trial as I wasn't home untill the wk of my wedding I knew I was in good hands I only had to look at her work to see how good she was . On the morning Grainne arrived bright and early and I honestly felt like a friend walked in the door she was just so lovely so enjoyable to have her company in the house. She did make up for 6 of us and we all looked amazing ! Grainne really listened to me what I wanted and I couldn't have felt more beautiful getting off her chair contacted me few days after wedding to enquire how the day went she really has the personal touch ! I would highly recommend Grainne as your wedding make up artist

I had the pleasure of working with Grainne for my wedding day, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the moment I met her for the trial, I knew I was in expert hands.

Grainne not only has incredible talent but also a warm and calming presence that made me feel at ease on such a hectic day. She listened attentively to my preferences and concerns, and her attention to detail was truly remarkable.

On the big day, she arrived punctually and executed the makeup flawlessly. My bridal look was natural, radiant, and lasted throughout the long day and night. I received countless compliments, and the photos turned out stunning thanks to her expertise.

I highly recommend Grainne to any bride-to-be. Her professionalism, skill, and years of experience doing weddings, took all the stress away for me and my bridal party - particularly for my mum who would never have had her makeup done professionally before.

Grainne played a significant role in making my wedding day truly special. Thank you, Grainne, for your incredible work!

Grainne was amazing. She was a lovely calm presence on the morning and I was thrilled with how my make up turned out. I changed my mind about what I wanted since the trial and this didn't throw her; she strived to give me exactly what I wanted and she succeeded! She was a great addition to the morning preparations and took some lovely photos and videos that I'll cherish; such a nice extra touch. Definitely would recommend!

I don't think there are enough words to describe how wonderful Grainne is, not only was my make absolutely perfect for the day and well into the wee hours but she put my mind at ease completely about any skin worries I had. She is such a calming person to have in your house on the morning of a wedding, I honestly cannot recommend Grainne enough and all future brides will be so lucky to have her look after them on their special day.

Grainne was amazing. The make up was flawless and long lasting. I couldn't believe it was still so perfect at 4am after a night of dancing. Grainne was very flexible and catered easily for the different styles of my two bridesmaids, my mother and I. She put us all at ease on the morning of the wedding and I was very relaxed heading up to the church thanks to her calming, easy going presence. Would highly recommend for any bridal party or for occasion make up

She made me, my bridesmaids, my mom and my mother in law feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. She is extremely professional and is the best in the business.

Grainne was great! I wanted a make up artist who would give me a natural look but with smooth skin and that is exactly what I got with Grainne. I would not be one for a lot of make up and that is how I felt. That is wasn't caked in make up. The make up was perfect for me and the Bridesmaids loved their make up also. Grainne gave me a list of what to get for touch ups through the day/night if I needed them and that was really helpful to have.

I can't recommend Grainne enough! When my sister got married back in 2021, I asked her on the day if she would be available for my own wedding, to which she kindly accepted. Grainne is a very lovely person who will make you feel very at ease, especially since I am nervous about makeup as it is. At my trial she gave me a flawless look which I further adapted on my own wedding day and I absolutely LOVED the finished look! I will very much look forward to once again use Grainne in the very near future xx

From the moment I reached out to Grainne through email her response and infomation I recieved back was fantastic and I knew I was in safe hands.She was so quick to book my make up trial as I was little nervous and it was a fantastic esperience I don't wear much makeup and Grainne spent the time explaining each step making sure I was comfortable with the finished look . Grainne arrived on the dot that morning and created such a fun and relaxed atmosphere the morning of my wedding. My bridesmaids were thrilled with their makeup . My own make up was so flawless and was exactly what I wanted for my wedding day and it did not budge all day and night.
Grainne's expertise is second to none and I could not recommend her enough.Thank you so much Grainne for making my morning such a wonderful experience .

So many commented on how beautiful our make up was. I thought my make up from my trial was amazing and then I looked in the mirror on my wedding day. It was without a doubt the best make up look I have ever had. I couldn't recommend her enough. Grainne also brings so much more than just the make up, she had music on the go & chatted and created a lovely relaxed atmosphere and even helped with other bits while I was getting into my dress.

She was super professional and my god the results speak for themselves! I had so many compliments about my make up and the coverage was exactly what I wanted; the full face lasted into day two aswell! She really did make me feel like a princess. I was also super impressed with the care and attention she put into my bridesmaids also. I can never thank Grainne enough for contributing to marking my special day even more special.

Grainne was my makeup artist for my wedding day, she did 6 peoples makeup on the day of my wedding. She done everyone's makeup in plenty of time. She was an absolute gem, she really transformed us all and made me feel and look so beautiful on my wedding day. My bridal party wanted a mix of a glam look and a natural look, Grainne just done exactly what we wanted. If you are thinking of using Grainne for your wedding day you would 100% be making the right decision. She really is so talented! She used Charlotte Tilbury and our make up looked flawless. The day before the wedding I got a really bad rash on my face and Grainne worked her magic and made my skin look perfect. I really cannot recommend her enough, she really went above and beyond on my big day, not only did she do our make up she also helped us all get into her dresses and helped us put on our jewellery, she also made sure to take loads of photos and videos on the morning and made them into a beautiful reel which really meant alot when you are waiting for ages for your wedding video and photos.

I cannot recommend Grainne enough!!! As a person who wears very little make-up, I was fearful that I may not look like myself on the day of my wedding. I came upon Grainnes work online and instantly got in touch with her. She was so understanding. Time didn't allow for a trial and the morning of the weddings I had no fear, as I knew Grainne would work her magic. And so she did. My makeup, that of my sister and my mum was amazing. It was so natural and light. It lasted all day and so many guests commented on our make-up. Not only is Grainne extreme talented but we had a great laugh the morning of the wedding. She made everyone feel so relaxed and went out of her way to make sure we were happy. I cannot recommend Grainne enough. Thank you for making my wedding day so special ????

Grainne was amazing doing my wedding make up, even before the wedding she went out of her way to meet me in a different town to do a spray tan. My mam and sister thought she was amazing. My man never had her makeup professionally done and was nervous but Grainne immediately put her at ease and listened to what she wanted and didn't want and was delighted with the result. My sister still talks about how brilliant she was. If you book Grainne for your make up you will definitely not be disappointed.

I wear makeup every day and so I was quite anxious about having something different for my wedding day bridal makeup. Grainne was great - she was so professional in her approach, she listened to me and what I wanted. We had a bridal trial and Grainne put everything into practice. She achieved my desired look both at the trial and on my wedding day! My bridesmaid sisters were also very impressed and happy with Grainnes work. Not only is she a talented makeup artist - she is also a lovely person to have as company on your bridal morning. We look forward to my sisters wedding when Grainne will be our makeup artist again.

Grainne is just simply amazing at what she does in every way. She has a very calm and friendly presence about her. My bridal party absolutely loved her and she had great time & chats for my mam which was so lovely as my mam loves nothing more. She listens to exactly what you want and pulls it off perfectly. As a mature bride of 41 years old I was worried about those dreaded wrinkles/lines and how they?d cover up but Grainne just worked her magic like no one else had done before. So weather your a young or more mature bride and your looking for the perfect makeup artist well Grainne is your your lady all day long Xxx

Grainne was amazing on the run up to our Wedding Day. Due to Covid we had to change our date several times and Grainne was so accommodating and supportive. On the morning of the wedding, she kept us all at ease and we didn't have to stress about the order of the morning or how long we had to get ready. The morning was so relaxed and stress free. Myself and my bridal party were delighted with our make up - it lasted all day long. Highly recommend Grainne for your big day!

Let me begin by saying, I cannot recommend Grainne highly enough. 10 days before our wedding, my original MUA had to cancel. I was at school (teacher) when I received the message. One of the SNA'S next door to me suggested Grainne. I rang Grainne on my break and she was incredibly helpful straight away. She needed to move a few things around initially which shows how much she cares about her brides and ensured me that everything would be grand. She was so lovely to deal with and chat to on the morning of the wedding and created the most gorgeous look for my mam, my bridesmaids and I. We were thrilled with the final result and all agreed that Grainne was a Saviour! I can't wait to get my make up done with Grainne again!

Grainne is a fantastic make up artist. She done my makeup several times and each time you walk in feeling washed out and drained and some how you leave feeling a million dollars .. She also done my make up for my wedding and I was so pleased with it, it was flawless. She is also really kind and extremely witty and professional. She makes you feel so calm and relaxed on the big day. I would highly recommend Grainne

Grainne was so lovely to deal with and did and excellent job on 5 makeup's the morning of my wedding. She has a kind and easy going nature. On the morning of the wedding there was a bit of a disaster with the lipstick I had bought for the day but Grainne sorted it all out with no fuss. She also did a brilliant job with my mums makeup which was a different style to the bride & bridesmaids.

Thanks so much Gemma ye were so kind I really enjoyed the morning with ye all best wishes Grainne x
