Wedding Hair & Makeup in Sussex

Finding bridal hair and makeup artists in Sussex

Sussex stretches from South Downs estates and medieval castles in the west through to the vibrant independent venue scene around Brighton. The bridal hair and makeup artists listed here are spread across the area, with the strongest concentrations in Brighton and Lewes; Chichester and Arundel tend to attract bridal hair and makeup artists who focus on castle, cathedral-city and historic market-town events. Bridal hair and makeup — including a trial — typically costs between £400 and £1,400 for the bride, with additional per-person rates for each member of the bridal party.

Because Sussex borders Surrey, Kent and Hampshire, plenty of bridal hair and makeup artists based here cover those counties without travel charges — useful if your venue sits on a county line. Book a trial early. Most artists in the area fill their weekend diary from late January onwards, and availability for bridal parties over four people closes up faster than most couples expect. At the trial, run through the full day’s timeline so the artist can advise on realistic start times — early morning gets are common and are easier to plan for once agreed at this stage.
