Excellent - absolutely reccomend 100%!
Olga and the whole team at Barnet & Boatrace were exceptional for both hair and makeup for my wedding. Really great customer service and communication throughout, from the very first stage of my enquiry. They were incredibly flexible for everything I needed including changes in the number of bridesmaid/guests requested for hair, and even location when we had our accommodation cancelled with 1 month to go! I'm not someone who usually has hair & makeup done but they were very helpful and guided me with recommendations ensuring I was happy and comfortable with their work. On the day itself, they were all on time and everything went smoothly and the photos afterwards lok amazing thanks to their expertise. Would definitely reccomend!

An incredible team!
I cannot recommend Barnet and Boatrace enough! Olga, Tandee, Jo and Leanne were the perfect team and made what could have been a hectic wedding morning into a breeze! I had quite a large bridal party and the girls made sure we were all ready ahead of time so that they could do last minute touch ups and make sure we all looked perfect. With having such a large bridal party, there were a range of hair and skin types so it was reassuring to have such experienced hair stylists and MUAs who knew exactly what products to use to make sure our looks stayed put all day.

Seamless!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Olga and her team of Wedding Makeup Artists and Hair Stylists at Laura and Simon's wedding. As a photographer, it's crucial that everyone is ready on time to capture those beautiful early moments, and Olga’s team always ensures this happens seamlessly. Their professionalism and skill not only made my job easier but also made everyone look stunning. Highly recommend!

Team were Fantastic!
Olga and her team were fantastic providing hair and make up services for me and my bridal party and family (7 in total) the morning of my wedding at The Kings Arms Christchurch. They were friendly and prompt, kept us all on time and calm throughout the morning, and the end result was stunning. They brought my vision exactly to life, creating the up-do of my dreams and beautiful make-up which stayed on flawlessly for the entire day. I just wish I could look and feel that beautiful every day!!

Delightful, Calm and Supportive
Thank you for providing the most wonderful hair and makeup for my daughter Pip’s wedding last Saturday on 22nd June, at The Kings Arms. Your team of 3 were delightful, calm and supportive that morning. We loved how gorgeous you made us look. My daughter and I had also had a trial run with you which was also a lot of fun and helped on the big day. I am very happy to recommend Olga and her team.

Friendly, responsive, professional
We booked Barnet & Boatrace as they were recommended to us and they did not disappoint. Olga and the team were always quick to respond, and their online invoicing system was easy to use. On the day we had two brides, 8 bridesmaids and two mother of the brides, so despite a 1pm ceremony time we were worried about being up at the crack of dawn but olga bought a team of 5 who started at 8 and had most of us done by 12! They did touch-ups for everyone and were very accommodating of re-dos.

My wedding x
Olga was amazing with communication and ensured everything was perfect on the build up too our special wedding. Caz arrived perfect timing on the day, with a very early start as we were getting married early! Myself, my mum and my maid of honour were so so pleased with our hair. Really couldn’t fault a thing. Caz had finished all of our hair and final touches but she was so willing and stayed to help with anything we needed including helping me into my dress and making sure we were all sorted. Olga and Caz are such lovely people and I feel so lucky to have that included into our perfect wedding day. I would highly highly recommend!!xxxx

The perfect day
We had the most wonderful wedding day. Everything seemed to come together and it all began with a very relaxed morning getting ready with my bridesmaids and hair and make up by Barnet and Boatrace. Olga and Kaz turned up and set the tone for a great morning. They used lovely products, Olga had a huge selection of that sat nicely and naturally on my face. She listened to what I wanted and I have to say, she made me look like the very best version of myself. The products she used lasted well into the early hours and I didn’t have to reapply anything except lip gloss. I looked flawless all day and night. Kaz had a tricky job with my hair. Despite having short hair, I really wanted an updo and with her expertise she made it possible. The hold was fantastic and everything stayed in place all day and night. It was a pleasure having you both there on the most important day of my life and together with my family, bridesmaids, videographer and photographer you made the beginning of the day really special. Fantastic service and great value for money. I highly recommend.

Exceptional!
I could't have asked for a better experience for my wedding day hair and makeup. Olga and Tandee are phenomenal and even without a trial it turned out exactly how I had imagined, better in fact! It was a boiling hot day but my makeup and hair didn't budge and I felt just as beautiful at the end of the night as I did after just having it done. Thank you so much!

Couldn't recommend them enough
I'd highly recommend Olga and the team at Barnet & Boatrace. They made me feel valued. Lead up was super organised, we had a video call in lieu of a trial to discuss what I wanted and they were great checking that their products would be suitable for my sensitive skin. Jaimee and Millie completely understood what I was after and made me feel the absolute best version of myself. Both makeup and hair even survived rain, wind, tears and hours of dancing.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

The one where we thought we'd got the date wrong as the wedding party had partied so hard the night before! When we arrived we just saw a sea of empty champagne flutes and bottles in the garden and had a very hungover bride to deal with!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, elegant, modern yet timeless.

What about your business are you most proud of?

When a bride really appreciates our work and takes the time to thank us after the event by writing us an email or leaving us a review.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Pinterest for collating ideas

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Gucci watches, favourite flowers delivered to the bride and romantic messages from the groom that make the bride cry!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

We tend to deal with the bride (although we have recently added a grooms grooming package too) so upon receiving your enquiry and giving you a quote we encourage you to use Pinterest to gather ideas for the look you'd like us to create. Then we arrange a trial run for 3 months before the wedding.

What do you love most about your job?

Making people smile! That look when they see themselves in the mirror once their hair and makeup has been completed by us!

What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?

Drink lots of water and moisturise every single day!

How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?

By allowing plenty of time. We always factor in time for faffing (we know us women like to faff!) and for any skin problems such as dryness or acne that need to remedied.

What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?

A 3 step cleansing, toning and moisturising routine at least 3 months before the wedding. Drinking plenty of water too so skin stays hydrated. Then on the day, tissues! Not only to mop up any tears but to blot any excess oil if it's a hot day!
