  • I am fully insured for facial treatments and working as a hair and makeup artist both in my studio and away from my home at wedding venues.

    Though Covid restrictions have been lifted I will continue to wear a mask and do a deeper clean of my studio between clients. I am also happy to wear a visor if this is something that makes you feel more comfortable.

  • In a nut shell…. After you make your enquiry I will send you a quote based on your requirements. Then if you are interested in going ahead, I like to arrange a call to have a chat. I can find out more about you and your day, talk you through how I work and you can make sure you like the sound of me too!

    If you would like to go ahead we then book in your trial. Before the trial I give you tips of choosing reference pictures which I compile into a moodboard.

    Trials typically take around 3/4 hours so there is time to adjust styles until you are happy.

    Before the wedding I prepare a schedule for the smooth running of the morning, bridal party looks are decided in advance and I fully brief any additional artist I may have with me. You can relax and enjoy your special morning knowing things will run smoothly.

  • I recommend your hair and makeup trial to take place arounds 3-6months before your wedding date.

    If you are interested on booking a course of facials in the lead up to your big day I recommend starting these monthly around 3-6months before your wedding day depending on your skin and any concerns you may have.

  • For a wedding morning to run smoothly there is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes. Built into the ‘Bride/Marrier’ price is a £100 deposit/booking fee towards admin - we will be in touch a lot over the months & weeks before your day! There is also additional time spent on the morning with the Bride to get the look just right!

    If you are interested in understanding more about the pricing structure please take a look at my blog post for more detail.

  • I am based in Brighton in Sussex. A lot of my work is in this area, but I do travel further afield: I’ve been part of wedding days in London, Kent, Surrey, Somerset, Devon…. even Austria! To reach weddings outside of Sussex there is an additional fee to cover the time required to travel to you.

    All mileage is charged at the government approved rate of £0.45ppm from BN1. For weddings outside of Sussex a fee of £30 per hour is charged to cover the additional travel time to get to you! Other travel expenses as required, such as accommodation, tolls, congestion, will be charged at cost.

    All additional charges will be outlined on the quote. For my full Wedding Terms and Conditions please click here - Naomi Spurr Studio T’s&C’s

  • It depends! Variables such as venue access time on the morning, ceremony time, departure time and pre ceremony photography are all factors that need to be considered. In general (based on a 13.45 departure) I am able to fit in the Bride’s hair and makeup, plus 3 additional services.

    Any more than this and an additional artist will be required.

  • Generally I don’t tend to take on wedding bookings without a trial taking place in advance.

    They are super important to ensure I understand your vision, that the chosen style is achievable and works for your individual hair/face. It allows us to discuss and tweak things until they are just right. This includes choosing the products that best suit your skin/hair and how it’s best to prep your hair to get the best results. I also offer advice on your skin, discus any concerns you may have and help you make any adjustments to your routine to make you look and feel your best! I suggest wearing your trial hair and makeup for the rest of the day to ensure you feel comfortable and to see how it lasts, in case we need to make any changes to the products used.

    A trial takes some of the wedding morning nerves away from the Bride - one less thing to worry about for a smoother and calmer morning!

    I recommend your hair and makeup trial takes place 3 - 6 months prior to your wedding date.
