'“More than makeup - it’s the start of your wedding story.

Based in North Devon, The Brilliant Bride was created to help brides feel their most confident, radiant and beautiful on one of the biggest days of their lives.

We are the premium provider of bridal hair and makeup services in Devon. We have our own bespoke, luxurious studio in Barnstaple where our ‘Signature’ hair and makeup trials take place, as well as glam sessions and lessons.

Our ethos is simple: Every bride deserves to feel BRILLIANT. We do not just apply makeup-we provide reassurance, expert advice, and a calming presence that transforms nerves to excitement.
