Hi I am Sally owner and mentor of
Orchard bridal artists
​
Helping brides feel calm, confident and genuinely cared for on one of the most important mornings of their lives
is at the heart of everything I do.
​
I’ve been in the beauty industry for over 30 years — ever since I was that kid who loved putting makeup on her dolls and was completely obsessed with anything fashion or beauty.
I love creating looks that really bring out the eyes while still feeling fresh, soft and natural. It’s so important to me that brides feel like themselves, just a more polished and enhanced version.​​​
​
Over the years I’ve built a kit full of products I trust — tried, tested and loved — including Dior, NARS, Charlotte Tilbury, Makeup forever and many more.
With years of experience behind me, my approach is calm, steady and reliable — so you can relax knowing you’re in safe hands from the moment I arrive. xx
“My personal experience shaped how we work today — calm, organised, and always centred around a bride’s experience.
That’s why I built this team.”
Each team member is someone I trust completely
As demand grew, I realised the best way to continue offering the calm, organised and highly personal experience I care so much about was to build a small team around me. I brought together a carefully chosen group of artists who share my values, approach, and attention to detail.
I can't wait for you to meet them! Sally.x

On the wedding morning, that calm presence really matters and that’s something we take pride in delivering, every time.
​​​

What past brides have to say...
I honestly can't recommend enough! From the very start of my wedding day, she brought such warmth and calm that instantly put me at ease
She reallv listened to what I wanted. offered gentle guidance on what would work best, and created a look that made me feel so special (and that's saying something as I'm definitelynot a "makeup girly"!)
Her caring nature and incredible talent made the morning so relaxed and enjoyable, and I'm beyond grateful for everything she did to help me feel my absolute best on such an important day. Suzanne - you are simply amazing.
