Testimonials
Don't take my word for it! Hear what our starlets have been saying about their Hollywood Brides experiences.
Firstly I’m worried that my words aren’t going to do Hollywood Brides justice. I’m so happy I picked Hollywood Brides to look after me and my rather large bridal party of 7 bridesmaids, 4 flower girls and my Mum.
Please pass on a very big thank you to Mary, Prue, Amelia and Bec. They did awesome hair and makeup.
Every single one of my bridal party looked stunning and I felt and looked like a Princess. My hair and makeup was exactly what I was after. I had so many complements on the day – I loved it.
Pity I couldn’t get Hollywood Brides to do my hair and makeup every day. I can’t wait to share the wedding photos with you. They are awesome.
You had the timing spot on to do all our hair and makeup which helped me getting to the church on time.
And thank you too Monique, you were so patient, professional and so easy to talk to. You answered all my emails so quickly and with dealing with so many wedding companies on a daily bases, I really appreciated it.
Your website is awesome, full of information that every bride needs to know and I look forward to reading your newsletters. I have no hesitation in recommending Hollywood Brides. I have already recommended you to three of my co-workers that are getting married next year.
I’ll be seeing you guys for any other upcoming events.

"Thanks to you and Diane I felt like the most gorgeous bride in the world. Our photos came out great and I even looked beautiful right up until we arrived at the Gold Coast to start our honeymoon at about 12:30 on the Sunday morning!
My Mum, bridesmaids and I all felt so comfortable with you and felt that you dealt with the little delays (on our part!) wonderfully.
Thank you so much for being so patient with me. It must have been as difficult for you to get organized as it was for me, especially seeing as we had to leave all our appointments until the last week.
Thank you again for your amazing professionalism, friendly service and most of all PATIENCE!!

Firstly, I wanted to thank both of you for my trial yesterday. I was so happy with the hairstyle - it was exactly what I was after, and the make up. Both of you were professional, yet friendly and made me feel very at ease (something that can be rare in the wedding industry!).
I am looking forward to having Sarah weave her magic with all of us on the day!
Thank you |

"Hi Filia, Thanks for doing my hair (for job interview). I got short listed and had to go back the next day, so I put a shower cap on and slept with my hair in.
In the morning it still looked perfect. I ended up staying for three days as I got a final face to face interview. Everything looks set. I'm very excited. Lots of people commented on my hair too!"
Best Regards |

Great website. I wanted to feel like a 'Hollywood Bride', so your business name grabbed my attention. …You were fantastic to deal with. So easy to talk to and professional. I felt very comfortable in your presence. I felt I could be completely honest with you both in my thoughts… I will be getting in contact with you mid year to have some hair extensions put in after I have this baby in April. |

"I would like to thank you so much for the fantastic job you and Filia did for me and my bridesmaids!
Everyone has commented on the fantastic hair and makeup (well the girls have, the boys just say "you guys look awesome").
We have had people use words like stunning, gorgeous, amazing and someone even said I looked like Barbie (as a kid I always wanted to look like barbie lol). I haven't received the photos yet but as soon as I do I'll send you some.
Thanks again, you guys are awesome :) You are at the top of my highly recommended list." |

Thank you for arranging Mary to do our hair on Saturday.
Thank you for taking our request at short notice and making all the necessary changes. I absolutely loved my hairstyle it stayed in place all night long, and my mum, nan and aunt loved their styles even with their short hair!
. Our ceremony was on 9 News Saturday for a Valentine's Day report.
Warm regards

"After the wedding which was such a wonderful day, my makeup was perfect, my hair was perfect, no panda eyes, no hair pins falling out, I woke in the morning (morning after) and my hair was still in place and my makeup had not smudged at all!
Thanks to you guys, you did such a wonderful job on all of us! Everyone commented on my hair and makeup, also on the girls hair and makeup, so your business cards were sent out to those who wanted them, a few people didn’t recognise me as I looked different!
Anyway take care, and if I ever need you guys for another makeover, you surely will hear from me! Thank you so much, keep in touch!"

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Hollywood Brides for doing such a fantastic job on my wedding hair and makeup.
Sarah and Filia were brilliant - the girls and I were so happy with our hair and makeup. It lasted all through the day and night - even after many hugs, kisses, crying and dancing! We received so many comments from friends and family on how beautiful we all looked.
Thank you so much for being so professional - you always returned my emails and phone calls quickly, and Sarah and Filia were on time and so professional - we had so much fun getting ready. I would highly recommend you to anyone!
Many thanks."

"...Renee and Filia were WONDERFUL! We were all very impressed with both hair and make-up, they really made us look and feel great.
I also wanted to mention how their positive, happy attitudes/manner started our day off perfectly. Both Renee and Filia made us all feel comfortable and helped us (mainly ME) destress and enjoy the morning.
It was nice to be able to joke around and have a laugh whilst getting ready, it definately helped me stay calm.
We would all recommend Hollywood Brides to our friends and family for any event. Thank you very much for helping make our day so special.
Thank you once again. Emma Jones.

"Hollywood Brides exceeded my expectations they were very professional and understanding.
They really listened to my requests even though I was a bit painful.
The highlight of my experience was the makeup and hair lasting, the helpful hints and just making us feel special. My kids (flower girls) actually thought you were from Hollywood... "

Thanks again"

"Your shots were fantastic I have the one with the girls and me as my desktop!
Thank you again for all your hard work on the day and for sticking around to help out with the photos it was so nice to feel special for a day. I will have no problem mentioning your name when the occasion arises; you're very professional and fun.
You made the stress of my day easier to cope with and all my girls thought you were fantastic. If I ever need makeup in the future or any of my girls get married we will definitely have no hesitation in calling you. Also I'm liking the make-up so if I need more I'll give you a call.
Thank you again and when the professional photos come through I will be sure to send some on to you."

"I wanted to thank you very much for the awesome job you did on Saturday.
Our make up and hair lasted the whole day, considering the heat and the running around I was expecting to get home and look like a complete feral rat but we didn’t! Honestly we looked the same!...I couldn’t believe it, it was amazing. I really didn’t want to go for a shower and wash it all off. ...So many people commented on how nice we looked, so we where very pleased.
Thanks again" |

Lacey Streeter |
"The girls were brilliant! From the trial to the wedding day, they were wonderful. I couldn't have dreamt of a better result
...I had no idea what hairstyle I wanted but my stylist managed to put together the perfect style, while the makeup artist did a fantastic job and was very patient with the interruptions from my daughter
...You were one of the few companies that I dealt with in the lead up to my wedding that actually responded and did what they said they would." |

"Thank you for arranging for Renee to do my wedding makeup.
Renee did such an amazing job on my makeup, I absolutely loved it….and of course everyone commented on it…..thank you sooooo very much for making my time sooooo simply relaxing and easy….was perfect!! Renee is such a lovely person also.
We had the absolute best day of our lives for our Wedding Day, I wouldn’t change a single utter thing…our honeymoon (Hawaii, Mexico and Fiji) was absolutely fabulous also!! Its hard to come back to the real world now, but we are settling in well, feels like it was all just a dream now.
Take care, thanks again.
Kind regards" |

"I have previously had my hair and makeup done for special occasions with disappointing results and I was naturally apprehensive, but Diane promised me she would not let me down. She delivered on that promise. I found Diane and Monique to be prompt friendly and professional.
I put myself in their hands for both my hair and makeup and was completely transformed and thrilled with the end results. It was the start of a wonderful day, both hair and makeup lasted all day, and right to the end of the night.
I would recommended you to anyone without hesitation."

"Hi Guys!
Just wanted to thank you so so much for doing the hair and make up for My 2 bridesmaids, my mum and myself! We have received a lot of comments from friends and family, as well as our hair dressers on how fantastic we looked (my husband cried when I walked down the aisle!).
I have no hesitation in recommending Hollywood Brides to people I know (even people I don't know!) who are getting married. We are so very grateful to have met you and I hope we can do business with you again..somehow!!!
Thank you so very much!!" |

very natural looking, just the way I wanted. My bridesmaids were also
very happy.

professionally."

"Hi Mon,
Forgive me for taking so long to do this but I just wanted to thankyou so so
so much for everything you did to make my big day wonderful.
Not only were you professional and performed wonders with our tired but
excited faces, but you did it with humour and fun.
Getting ready was a wonderful start to a perfect day and it wouldn't have
been as good without you.
We looked and felt beautiful, just like stars.
Our hair and make-up were even better than we imagined. It brought me so
much happiness to see my mum (who never wears make-up), feel and look
beautiful and happy with her look.
I will be recommending you to every girl I know that wants an occasion to
feel gorgeous and have fun at the same time.
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou." |

"Thank you so very much for getting back to me so promptly you have no idea how much I appreciate it after dealing with so many wedding related companies and how slack some can be... Once again, I am very happy with your work and what a fantastic job you both did on my make up and hair style... Thank you so much for your understanding and for everything you've done for me." |

"First of all, I have to tell you that everyone told me how gorgeous I looked on my wedding day. My husband was speechless when he saw me, so a very big thanks to Hollywood Brides. You gals did an amazing job, I thought my sister and my mum looked absolutely beautiful. The makeup lasted all day even after a little crying and the hair styles stayed even after a lot of dancing.
Hollywood Brides made me; my mum and my sister look great on the best day of my life. The hair styles were amazing and so was the makeup. Again, thank you so much... you gals were absolutely brilliant." |

"Thank you Hollywood Brides for giving me perfect make up, for my wedding day. The make up wasn't overdone or "caked on", yet it was able to withstand the events of the day including many tears and much dancing with just the slightest of touch ups!
Thank you for giving us the look we were after but mostly thank you for being able to perform your job in such and easy going and relaxed atmosphere. Nothing was a stress or hassle and it meant the day started as I wanted it to finish, calm, relaxed and having fun." |
Libby Huddy |
"Absolutely loved my hair and make-up. My biggest concern was my skin, but as the photo shows, I looked flawless - you rock!...you made us all feel nothing was too much effort and you never seemed stressed or frantic which would've rubbed off on all of us, you were very down to earth which was reassuring." |
 |
Catherine Cox |
|
"I absolutely loved what you did and the best bit was that I didn't have to say much at all. I felt confident enough to just let you do what you thought would look good and it did. The convenience of not having to go to a salon and having someone come to me was perfect, I didn't have to rush out anywhere on the morning, instead I was able to relax. I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you " |
Louise O'Shea |
"You only have to look at the photos to see 'magic at work!!'. We all looked like Hollywood movie stars (flawless). You were very professional and arrived at the house before the bridesmaids and still did a great job! Thanks to you I will have photos that I adore and will show all generations to come, Thank you." |

Lyndsay Bojanovic |

"Thank - you for your wonderful work on our special day. As you can see the girls and I looked a million bucks.
The wedding all came together perfectly and we are now happy to be husband and wife.
After now returning from our honeymoon in Fiji we would like to thank you and Diane once again for all your support to help our day all come together.
We are pleased to have chosen Hollywood brides as we received the best service ever and we are very happy to recommend your wonderful business to everybody we know." |

Thanks again Stacey Orr |

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you both and Hollywood Brides for making me and my girls look wonderful on my wedding day! You guys did such a good job, I loved my look so much that I wish I could look like that everyday!!!! You guys were easy going and fun to be around. I can't thank you both enough.
Thanks again, I will have no hesitation in recommending you both to any Brides I come into contact with." |

"Monique was the Make Up Artist for my Wedding and what a fabulous job she did! I totally trusted Monique's recommendations as I am someone who does not normally wear make up at all! I just wanted to look glamorous on the day. I asked Monique to give me a smoky look just for something totally different. My bridesmaids, guests and especially my husband to be were speechless when they saw me. I certainly made an impression as they had never seen me in make up before.
I can honestly say that I found Monique to be a total professional throughout our dealings and enjoyed having her around on the big day. I would recommend her to anyone who like me has no idea about make up and is looking for professional advice and guidance. Thank you Monique for a truly amazing transformation!!!" |
