I just want to take this opportunity to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to Chic Artistry for being part of our wedding Dream Team. From the very first email you have been nothing but friendly, professional and efficient in answering my questions.

On the day itself we had the gorgeous and talented Sheree as our hair stylist. She not only brought along her magic tools to transform us into glamorous goddesses but she also offered genuine care and soft words of support when I was feeling overwhelmed by everything!

I had no idea what look I wanted but she was so patient and guided me to what she thought would be suitable. My hair was absolutely PERFECT. I got compliments all day and it even held up until the end of the night despite getting completely rained on during the ceremony - IMPRESSIVE.

Thank you so much ladies for everything, I just can’t recommend you enough!! Xoxo

Chic Artistry were fabulous from the very first interaction.

Tanya was so lovely to deal with and so great in helping organise hair styling for myself and my bridesmaids - communication was prompt and easy and the reminder emails made navigating parts of the wedding planning process a breeze.

Sheree did our hair styling on the day and she did such a beautiful job in bringing our vision to life! Not only this but she had truly a relaxed and delightful presence on our wedding day which put everyone at ease and made the process so much fun.

I'm so glad I chose the Chic Artistry gals for our special day, their service was second to none.

I don’t know where to begin, because I don’t think I can thank Kayla & Deena enough!

Not only are they unbelievably talented (my Maid of Honour called them ‘wizards’ and she’s spot on!) but they are just truly beautiful souls who manage to have the most calming presence while at the same time being so energetic & fun, which is exactly the type of people a bride needs around her on the morning of her wedding day!

I absolutely adore them, as do my bridesmaids.

THANK YOU!

I. cannot. even. Tanya was a dream to work with.

I wanted simplicity and stress free and she delivered, 110%. Tanya was easy to talk to, she knew exactly what I wanted with me barely having to even say it.

I also loved the products she uses, they feel amazing and I know they are ethically sourced. It was also super special to have someone as easy going as Tanya on our day as it was just the two of us.

I would choose Chic artistry again and again.

How do I even thank you! Right from the beginning your communication was 10/10.

On the day, not only did you make me look and feel amazing, you were so calm and genuine and made the morning what it was. And then, when your role was done, you went above and beyond to help me get the lipstick off my dress when I was freaking out haha.

You're a beautiful person inside and out! Mine and the girls makeup stayed on right through the night til we went to bed at 3am! Also, my mum felt like a superstar and some people thought she must be a bridesmaid.

My groom was speechless and I had so many compliments. Thank you a million times!

You ladies are absolutely incredible and I wish we could do it all again! After my night of food poisoning I had no idea how I was going to make it through the day.

Kayla worked her magic. My maids and mum looked and felt amazing thanks to you and your gorgeous work. SO many people told me that they loved my make up and no one had a clue that I was a lovely shade of green under your brilliant work.

Sheree, the work you do is nothing short of a work of art! You had all kinds of hair to work with and all of the girls looked simply stunning. You not only fixed up my mop of hair and turned it into the beautiful messy bun that it was, but you guided and counselled me through my bouts of nausea! That was certainly something that is not in your job description.

You are an amazing team of ladies who not only physically make other people look beautiful but feel it on the inside too.

Dear Tanya and Deena,

I just wanted to say such a big thank you for making my wedding day preparations so enjoyable and fun and for doing such an amazing job with all of our hair and makeup. We all felt so beautiful and had so much fun getting ready.

Choosing Chic Artistry for hair and makeup is easily one of the best decisions I made for our wedding.

Not only was I completely blown away by the amazing job they did on myself and my bridesmaids, but the vibe and professionalism they bring to the morning of your big day is a complete game-changer.

Thank you so much Tanya and Deena for being amazing at your job, and for being a true highlight of my day.

Firstly, THANK YOU so much for the incredible make-up on myself, my bridesmaids and the mothers. The look you created for each person was amazing and so natural. Everyone looked absolutely stunning and I couldn't have been happier with the end result!

It was so good to have you there getting us ready on the day. You are kind, friendly, warm and incredibly talented at what you do and you made us all feel so comfortable and relaxed. It was like you were one of us, just there hanging out and having a laugh with us, which we loved!

It was an absolute pleasure to have you as part of my big day and again, I cannot thank you enough for the beautiful make up look you created on each of my girls, myself and the mothers. We all felt a million dollars!

I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for everything. As a team you both managed to pull together everything I envisioned for my bridal party with the look of hair/makeup and the experience of the morning.

The bridesmaid hair was exactly as I imagined and it held all day, even on those with stubborn hair. I loved my hair, it was very me! I got a little swept away by the wind but it still held the curls all day and I felt like a beautiful bride. The makeup was so so beautiful and natural looking (those lashes!!!) and it lasted all day.

Both of you are so professional and so talented and made the morning very relaxed and stress free. Thank you so so much for everything. I would definitely recommended Chic Artistry to anyone getting married in the Hunter.

Tanya truly exceeded my expectations with hair and makeup on my wedding way. From day 1, Tanya was so easy to get along with, brought positive energy to my experience, and was extremely responsive to my requests. This is truly a blessing when you are trying to organise everything else for a wedding.

On the day, Tanya was calm and confident. Having darker skin, I have always had difficulty finding the right make up for my skin, and had never been completely happy with other makeup artists. Although, Tanya chose shades that perfectly complemented us and the look that I was going for, and the shades she used made our skin look flawless. I honestly felt my makeup and hair were perfect. My partner also said that my makeup was 'absolutely epic' and that is something he has never said before(!)

I also have to say that Tanya and Gez Xavier Mansfield (photographer) are the perfect duo. They helped elevate our wedding day to something beyond what we expected. Thank you for an incredible experience!

Tanya and Deena,

Thank you for making me feel like an absolute goddess on the weekend. When Pete saw me he was tearing up like a baby and the first thing he said was, ‘You look absolutely incredible’. My bridesmaids looked gorgeous and the way you were with my Mum and my Mother in law made them feel completely at ease - and of course, they looked beautiful.

Thank you so much to the both of you. It was the most perfect day and I want to relive it over and over again. We’re still crying now!

With so much love, the new Mr and Mrs Edwards xxx
