What clients and colleagues say about me..
I am lucky in my work to be involved in such a wide variety of projects and jobs. I get to connect with the most fantastic people from working with brides on planning their wedding day preparations to working with other creative professionals on events, television, commercial and editorial work.
It is wonderful to receive positive feedback on the work that I love to do.
[su_quote] I just want to say the biggest thank you for everything you did for our wedding in August. You made me feel beautiful and everyone made so many comments about how lovely and intricate my hair was. The amount of people that also told me they thought my mam was my sister was ridiculous and that is at least somewhat down to you! I know she felt beautiful too.
The make up, hair and flowers were all absolutely amazing and looked so much better than I could ever have expected. Not only did you do the job we hired you for so spectacularly, but you went above and beyond – particularly with the time constraints and logistics of the day. I still don’t think I’d have made it to the Church without melting if you hadn’t sprayed me generously with that cooling mist!
Thank you again – you were amazing and if I ever have any excuse to use you again I will (I’ll be trying to find one!)[/su_quote]
Love from Bryony and Stephen
[su_quote] Victoria did my hair and make up, as well as the hit of my three bridesmaids and my mum. She also created all of our bouquets, the top table’s centrepiece, button holes and corsages. The flowers were incredible. I’ve never seen a more beautiful range of flowers and she absolutely got the brief and our venue and created something stunning. My hair and make up were also perfect. I wanted a really natural look and I loved every part of it. I would definitely recommend to anyone. Having all three elements provided by one person was the best because it meant that it was simple to organise and my whole look had a consistency to it because she’d created it all. Amazing work!

[su_quote] Just wanted to get in touch to say a massive thank you for everything (flowers, make-up & hair!) at my wedding. I just wanted to let you know I loved it all & really appreciate all the advice & creative ideas that you put into my day. You are such a talented lady, I don’t think that there are many people who are exceptional at flowers, make-up & hair, three important things that are a big deal to get right at a wedding! The name says it all “pins, petals & powder” so thank you again for doing such a fantastic job. My mum asked me to pass on her thanks to you too, she was really pleased with her hair & make up & also thought you had such a great manner that really put her at ease on the day – she actually really enjoyed the experience![/su_quote]

She really made everyone feel comfortable on the day and was very professional. If I ever need any of these services or know anyone who does I will be recommending you time and time again!

[su_quote] Victoria of Pins, Petals & Powder was instrumental in making our wedding day magical. She embraced our 1920’s theme & was meticulous her research of the period. This meant the final floristry & hairdressing for myself and my bridesmaids complimented our Art Deco theme beautifully. Always helpful and friendly, I would recommend Victoria to anyone looking for stunning hair, flower or makeup creations![/su_quote]

[su_quote] Vic looked after the flowers, hair and make-up at my wedding recently and I honestly couldn’t have made a better choice. She is an absolute pro and offers honest advice when talking through your ideas. The hair and make-up on the day was exactly what we wanted and lasted very well. We loved having Vic around – she is so calm! The flowers were just stunning, better than I could have hoped for. Can’t recommend Pins Petals Powder highly enough! [/su_quote]
