" Brides and Beauty were absolutely fantastic.They made me feel and look so beautiful for my big day. "

 " I was very impressed by the service provided by Joyce and her team. From advise prior to the wedding to the fantastic makeup and hair on the day. Joyce was always on hand for calming words and I feel her presence and confidence help ease any of my post wedding jitters. "

" Joyce really looked after me the day before my wedding, some decent grooming and pampering was exactly what i needed and Joyce came up trumps, as always.  Joyce also sorted me out with facials and trial nails on the lead up too! "

" Joyce made  me feel really special and was really friendly. I thought the trial at home was excellent. "

" THIS WAS A JOINT WEDDING. B&B ACCOMODATED BOTH BRIDES EVEN THOUGH ONLY I WAS HER CUSTOMER - B&B WERE FANTASTIC AND GAVE GREAT ADVICE TO IMPROVE HAIR AND BEAUTY PRIOR TO THE WEDDING DAY. "

" Hayley was fantastic. It felt like I had know her for years. She helped make me feel very relaxed when doing my hair and made my bridesmaids look georgous especially my 15 year old cousin who is very punk, she didn't look like the same girl! "

" Both Joyce and Hayley were brilliant on the day.  Kind and helpful and very calming to a flower crisis!  Couldn't recommend them highly enough. "

" Fantastic. Made me feel so relaxed and calm about the day. Would definately use again! "

" Brides and Beauty were absolutely fantastic on my wedding day. Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with and I just cant thank her enough. I looked absolutely stunning on my wedding day and Joyce's talents meant that the photos were also fantastic. Joyce's level of servce went far beyond what I expected, as she stayed later and helped me get into my dress. I just cant recommend Brides & Beauty highly enough! "

" Brides and Beauty were absolutely brilliant. Hayley did my hair and she was wonderful really friendly and made me feel very relaxed on the day. "

In July I hosted a ‘Facial & Fondue’ evening at my house which proved to be a great success! Joyce arrived with her gear at around 6.30pm and set up in the lounge ready for a queue of ladies desperate for a bit of pampering …

In the course of the evening, Joyce gave 5 ladies and my brother a complete Dermalogica facial which included a close inspection of their skin with her ‘magic goggles!’ Joyce was able to tell all sorts of things about our diets and lifestyles just through looking at our skin and gave us all some great advice on ways to improve our health!

Each of us found it to be a very interesting and very relaxing experience which will definitely have to be repeated soon. By the end of the evening my lounge was full of lots of contented, relaxed people, with glowing faces that felt silky soft.

To Joyce,

Thank you for taking some of the pressure of my wedding day, it was fantastic not having to worry about my make up and nails on the day. And thanks to your advice and regular facials I looked and felt amazing. Everyone commented on how radiant I looked, all the hard work paid off!

And my manicure and pedicure lasted all honeymoon, even after snorkeling every day.

You are a STAR!!!

All my love and continued custom,

Hi Joyce,

I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed you pampering us on Sunday (Wiltshire); All of us agreed that it made the weekend. It wasn't just that the treatments were great, we really enjoyed your company as well.  I've passed your web-site details onto Helen and Bridgete, so I hope you get some more bookings out of it too. I hope that your journey home on Sunday evening was easier than your journey down.

Have a great Christmas; I'll be in touch in the New Year.

Thanks again,

Hi Joyce,

Just a quick note to say a big Thank You for the hot stone massage on Friday. I've seen a few adverts for stone massages. They always show somebody lying on their tummy with a line of stones down their back and it's given me the impression that's all that's involved and to be honest thought - what's the point? However, the massage you offer is completely different. Using a variety of different sized stones and different temperatures, customers get a full body massage and in addition to surrounding the client with stones, you also use the stones to massage people. It's fantastic! It's a completely relaxing experience (I almost fell asleep!) and one that I would highly recommend to anybody.

You have a truely unique selling proposition here - I don't know of anybody else in the Reading area that offers this type of massage. 

Cheers,
