“Beyond incredible! I feel like writing a review is not enough to describe how amazing they made myself and loved ones feel on my wedding day!! Would absolutely highly recommend Airlie & Co for anyone’s wedding. The whole process was so professional and smooth. Starting at my trial where I had a very vague idea of what bridal hair and makeup I was after, but Tara and her team managed to deliver exactly what I was hoping for. They were also so supportive and had amazing communication leading up to my wedding. The wedding morning was super relaxed and everything went to plan. My friends and family who had their makeup done were over the moon with how beautiful they felt. I’ve honestly never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. Airlie & Co and co are experts at what they do but they also care about their clients and that shone through! Thank you so much Tara x” — Anna B.

Do you recommend a hair and makeup preview?
Airlie&Co believes a preview is an important step to ensure peace of mind on the day and the chance to refine your desired look.
“I cannot recommend Tara and the whole crew at Airlie & Co more for your wedding day. The process from start to finish was beyond seamless and felt like a valued member of the Airlie & Co community. I've never looked or felt as good as I did on my wedding day and neither did my bridesmaids, mother and mother of my husband. Tara and Carlie were the dream team the whole day, with Tara staying back to touch up my makeup post ceremony and make sure I was ready to go and looking fabulous for the reception. We all felt so comfortable and in such safe hands. I would not recommend anyone else to trust with your special day than Tara and the whole team at Airlie & Co. Thank you isn't enough!!” — Kayla H.

FAQ
Your wedding day is one of the most memorable and photographed days of your life — and we believe you deserve to feel like the very best version of yourself. A professional stylist brings not only experience and technical skill but the calm, confident presence needed on a day that can feel fast-paced and emotional.
From matching skin tones and balancing features, to preparing different hair types and ensuring your look holds up in all lighting and weather conditions, your artist will design a look that feels effortlessly “you” — and lasts well into the evening.
We come to you, so you can relax, be pampered, and soak up the excitement with your loved ones. Getting ready should be part of the joy — not a source of stress. While a friend or relative might be great at their own makeup, it’s a big ask for them to take on that pressure, especially in a high-stakes moment.
We believe the best wedding mornings are filled with love, laughter, and ease — and we love being a part of that.
Our calendar fills quickly — many of our couples secure their date 12 to 18 months in advance. With 2025 already shaping up to be a very full year, we recommend reaching out as early as possible to avoid missing out.
To check availability, simply submit an enquiry form and our team will get back to you with more information about your date.
Being a small team of both hair stylists and makeup artists who work together on a regular basis, we work efficiently in group booking situations. We want to make sure everyone, including your in-laws and special guests feel included, so we can cater for bridal parties of up to 18 in 1-2 locations on your wedding day.

Good hygiene and safe sanitary practice is of the upmost important to us. Your makeup artist will use clean, sanitised makeup brushes and tools such as eyelash curlers and tweezers for each client. .
