Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life, it’s the day most women have dreamt about and you are going to take enough photos and videos to remember it forever.
You need to look your best, which is where having a specialist in wedding make up comes in. It may be seen as a “treat” to have a make-up artist, but in reality, it’s more of a necessity! (any girl out there knows how impossible it is to apply makeup with shaky hands on the first date, let alone her wedding morning!)
Combining her knowledge of accentuating the beauty of her clients, as well as appreciation of the unusual colours used by bridal wear and her extensive experience of bridal make up, Sonara Parker can give your special day that extra something by making sure the bride is the most beautiful woman there. As she should be.
“I will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a miracle”
Wendy Barber, Bride 2009
Why do I need a Bridal Trial?
A makeup trial is an essential element of the bridal package. This is where Sonara can get to know you, and discuss your look for the wedding day, taking into consideration your skin tones/hair colour/dress/likes and dislikes and then set about getting the look right.
You should have your trial date booked in for at least 4 weeks prior to the special day,but please contact Sonara for availability the moment you decide to have your makeup professionally so not only can your trial be booked in but also your wedding date secured and thats one less thing off the huge wedding “to do” list done.
The trial is the fun part and can last up to two hours as it’s important that you are completely satisfied with the makeup, also don’t worry Sonara always keeps a record of the make-up applied at the trial so you know exactly what to expect on the morning of the wedding day.
“Sonara is extremely skilled as a make up artist but also has a natural and genuine affinity with people. I don’t just feel like I paid for a service, I made a friend.”
Gaynor Farrow, Bride 2010
On the Wedding Day

At the trial, you would have discussed what time you are having your hair done and what time you are getting married, so Sonara will arrive as agreed.
Your make-up will be identical to the trial day so you can be completely confident in the end result and don’t worry Sonara is always happy to stop for tea breaks/sips of champagne and has been known to be a child entertainer at times to help in the ease of your morning
As Sonara takes pride in her work, she often also takes a few shots of your makeup on the wedding day for her portfolio.
“My makeup was absolutely stunning, I felt like a princess and she completely transformed my Mother and Bridesmaids!! From beginning to end it was an absolute pleasure to deal with Sonara, she’s a complete professional and one of the nicest people I’ve ever met!”
Sarah Smith, Bride 2011
