I booked Jo to do my wedding make up because of all the fab photo's I had seen on her page and we went to school together so thought would be great!
Well what can I say she made myself, my bridesmaids & my grandmother all feel relaxed, comfortable and knew exactly what she was doing.. Even on the trial I explained what I wanted and she listened and matched it!
Definitely a good choice choosing Jo to do my wedding make up and would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Jo was brilliant, myself and my bridesmaids and my mom all had a make up trial and felt at ease and very relaxed. Jo did all our make up for my wedding on 20th May 17 and we all looked beautiful. The make up stayed on all day and looked great in the photos. Would definitely recommend, Jo is great at what she does but also has a bubbly personality and really helped to relax me on my big day!

On our wedding day Jo did my makeup as well as all my bridesmaids makeup. She really listened to what we each wanted and the results were incredible. All day people kept telling me I looked flawless! Not only did the makeup look great but it lasted for the entire day and night. She worked quickly and efficiently and made sure there was time for touch-ups and never seemed stressed or rushed. She is an incredibly person with a great sense of humour. On what can be a stressful day, it was an absolute pleasure to have someone so happy, relaxed, and attentive around. I cant recommend her highly enough! More...

Jo did a fantastic job!
I don't usually wear much makeup but I totally trusted her to work her magic and she made me feel so comfortable while she did it.
It lasted from 7am until the small hours (even after a bottle of prosecco errupted in my face) and I recieved so many compliments.
110% recommend Jo for any special occasions!!

Jo did the makeup for our wedding three weeks ago and we could not be more happy with the results! As somebody who isn't used to wearing a lot of makeup Jo made the whole process so easy and she was so helpful along the way. Nothing was too much trouble at the trial and this just made me feel so much better in the run up to the big day. Jo was amazing on the day and adapted to all of my bridesmaids differing looks so well. She was so friendly and calming and the whole morning ran so smoothly We had so many compliments on the makeup and even after a few glasses of champagne the make up was going strong at the end of the night! Thankyou! xxx More...

I couldn't have been happier with Jo as my MUA for my wedding day. From the start, she was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and knew exactly the kind of makeup look I was after. She was fab on the wedding morning at calming my nerves, it felt like having a mate there, and she even helped deal with a last minute bridesmaid dress related drama! The bridesmaids and I were chuffed and the makeup lasted the whole night.

I can't recommend her enough and feel really lucky to have booked her. Thanks Jo!

I really can't recommend Jo enough. At the end of July, she did my make up as well and my bridesmaids' and my mum's. Jo was so friendly and down to earth from the very beginning. During the trial she listened to me and didn't mind that I was a total fuss pot about the eye make up! Jo was patient and had lots of suggestions about the different looks I could go for. We had lots of giggles along the way and she made me feel really relaxed.

On the day, Jo was a great person to have around whilst we were getting ready and made everyone feel at ease. Her products worked well on all of our skin and lasted all day and night. We were all so happy with the finished look.

I would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking for someone professional, talented and good fun to do their make up.

Thank you! Xxx

Jo is an amazing artist, I don’t wear a lot of make up but she put me at ease and worked her magic. I’m so proud to tell everyone that Jo Way did my wedding make up - it was an honour that she said yes.

I cannot speak more highly of Jo and her work! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, it meant a lot xxx

Jo did a fantastic job with the make up for myself and my sister for my wedding day and even provided some lip gloss and sparkle for our young bridesmaid. As someone who doesn't often wear makeup she provided a really natural look that looks great on the photos. She really helped keep things relaxed and we had a lot of fun getting ready. Would highly recommend her for your special day! More...

Jo did the make-up for myself, my two bridesmaids, mum and granny last week for my wedding. Having met Jo previously whilst photographing another wedding she was working on I knew she was the kind of supplier I wanted to hire for my own wedding as she was really down to earth and a great laugh!

My mum and I had a trial which was brilliant, and even though I don't wear a lot of make up day to day and certainly hadn't had my make-up professionally done before, I really enjoyed it and Jo was great - she knew exactly what would suit me even though I didn't have a clue, and was also patient with me when I couldn't decide on lip colours!

The make-up on the day was fantastic, it lasted all day without us having to do anything other than top up our lippy! Jo worked with our skin types and one of my party's wish to only use cruelty free brands and I was so chuffed with how it all turned out, everyone looked fantastic. I really can't recommend Jo enough! x

I cannot recommend Jo enough. As someone who doesn't often wear makeup I was a little anxious about finding someone for my wedding make up but from the moment I started talking to Jo I knew i didn't need to worry. Jo was friendly and quick in her replies, explaining her work and offering tips on how to prepare my skin for the day too. During the make up trials she spent time with each one of us and offered lots of different ideas, it completely reassured me that I had made the right decision. On my wedding day Jo did make up for myself, 3 bridesmaids, mum and mother in law - she was absolutely fantastic and didn't leave us until just before the wedding. Jo was so down to earth, chatting to everyone and I felt absolutely amazing for my wedding day. I have already booked Jo again to do my make up for an upcoming special event! Thank you Jo x More...

Jo was simply amazing! As someone who doesn't wear huge amounts of makeup I was a little unsure about having a Makeup Artist on the day of my wedding but having Jo made it super easy. We discussed everything I was after during my trial, she knew exactly what she was doing matching products to my skin type whilst talking me through everything she was using. She created a fabulous minimal look on the day!! Thanks muchly! X More...

From the minute we met at Calke Abbey wedding show I knew Jo was the one to beautify me for my big day and I wasnt wrong!! My trail was amazing and she really put me at ease about everything and what would happen on the day, as a non make up wearer that was really important to me and meant a lot.

My wedding morning itself was pretty eventful but Jo braved all the snow we'd had and still managed to get to us bright and early being her lovely bubbly self! I felt and looked beautiful on my wedding (even if I do say so myself haha!) My mum and bridesmaids looked incredible too! More than that though, Jo kept me calm despite all the craziness that happened that morning so I really can not thank her enough! She really is the best and I couldn't have anyone better to do my make up for me!

Josephine did my make up for my wedding in June. She is incredibly friendly, reassuring and calming person and was great to have around in the morning of the wedding. During my trial she listened exactly what I wanted and she did my make up beautifully, we worked together to make sure that the eyeshadow and lipstick were the colour I really wanted and she provided lots of options. I would have no hesitation in recommending Josephine to other people for their make up, she did an amazing job and I had lots of compliments on how natural my make up looked and it stayed on all day!

What can I say about Jo..... from the moment I first met her for my trial she was absolutely amazing. She’s so lovely and easy to talk to you feel like you’ve been friends with her for years! I don’t usually wear much make up but I wanted to look “flawless “ for my wedding day and that is exactly what Jo did. I don’t think there’s much she doesn’t know about make up and knew straight away what colours would suit me, advised me and talked me through the whole process, constantly asking if I was happy with what she was doing. On my actual wedding day she was such a calming influence for me when the nerves started to get the better of me, she was fantastic! My Bridesmaids make up was stunning again Jo listened to what they wanted, and worked with them all the time. I really cannot recommend Jo enough for anyone who is looking for absolutely stunning results for any occasion. Thanks Again Jo for all your help in making our day perfect � xxx More...

Q&As

I absolutely love everything about weddings! I feel incredibly privileged to be involved with every big day I've worked on and each one is different. I love finding out about my brides and how they met their partner. My brides become like friends and I love seeing everything come together. Who wouldn't want to share the happiest day of somebodies life with them?! It's incredible and I wouldn't change a thing!

I've also loved makeup and I trained quite a while ago. Although I continued working within the makeup industry I felt there was something missing and had always wanted to work for myself. Sometimes you have to make the leap and I've never looked back! Owning my own business, that I'm passionate about, is one of the greatest achievements I've had!

I know how important it is that you feel comfortable with your makeup artist and that they help you to feel the best you've ever felt. I have experience in all skin tones and types so I know what will bring the best out in you and how to create your perfect bridal look. I work tirelessly and I'm not happy until you are. I'm there to take the stress out of your wedding morning and help you feel a million dollars!
