The Hairbook

I found Natalie as one of Dodford Manor’s recommended vendors, and I can completely see why she is on the list. I had a very particular style in mind for my hair when I went to my trial, and Natalie brought it to life perfectly, talking me through everything I would need to do in the lead up to the wedding to ensure it lasted all day. Little did I know as we lead up to the day that not only is Natalie an incredible hair stylist, but also an amazing wing woman and additional photographer during the build up to the ceremony! She turned up super early in the morning to start and me and my five bridesmaids – by herself, no supporting team! We started the morning with some pictures in our robes and some Tik Toks, before Natalie prepped my hair. She then worked seamlessly with my makeup artists to rotate around the bridesmaids to get their hair done in time before we moved over to the venue – which she also helped with! At the venue, Natalie did the finishing touches on my hair, somehow making it look even more beautiful than in the trial, and then took some more photos of me and my bridesmaids all made up. Finally, she helped me into my dress and assisted with a first look with my parents, which I absolutely loved. In summary, Natalie is just simply a super star and I highly recommend choosing her as your hairstylist for your big day if you want to be certain of quality as well as a great time!

Would recommend! never felt so pretty in mylife! Helped to get in to my dress and took lots of pictures for me! Made me feel comfy and relaxed Was very organised and went so smoothly! (Despite the kids!! Running and screaming so sorry!!) Can't thank you enough!!

Natalie was amazing throughout the whole process and was so prepared! Gave me plenty of tips on the trial about things like what styles would hold best for my hair, and also other handy things like which room to request at my hotel if possible! On the day she was prepared for any scenario and was a gem when it came into getting into my dress. Thank you so much for all your help :)

Natalie, you are a star! The wedding preparation itself was amazing and the way you did my hair? I couldn’t look more pretty ;) Hair last all day and still even I slept, they are looking amazing ❤️ I cannot describe how much I appreciate you being there for me no matter what was needed ;) It was amazing day, the most wonderful I could imagine for us ;) You went way beyond with all of our hair, with pictures of beautiful moments. I’m eternally grateful !

For our wedding, Natalie did an incredible job of styling not only my hair but the hair of 5 bridesmaids and my mum and it all looked amazing! The photographer said that it could be the best wedding hair he’s ever seen! Everyone commented on how good it was and how well my hair in particular suited our autumnal rustic theme. Thank you so much Natalie for your hard work and dedication to making us all feel fabulous! I couldn’t recommend you enough!

I cannot recommend Natalie enough!! Absolutely amazing, beautiful hair and so professional nothing is to much trouble. I couldn’t have done it without her. Natalie assisted me throughout the morning and got me into my dress which I couldn’t have done without her. If anyone is thinking about having Natalie don’t hesitate because she is truly wonderful. Thank you Natalie for making look beautiful for the most perfect day xxx
