Bellus

To every Central Coast bride planning her wedding — hello, I travel to you. 👋

I cover all of the Central Coast for bridal hair and makeup — Gosford, Terrigal, Tuggerah, Wyong, Killcare and everywhere in between. Clifftop estates, beachside venues, lush hinterland properties — wherever your wedding is, I come to you.

Hair and makeup together, just me. Which means one artist, one timeline, one calm morning — no juggling two separate people with two separate schedules.

I'm Amanda from Bellus. I've been doing bridal hair and makeup for 18 years and I've won the Wedding Diaries Editor's Choice Award three years in a row — 2023, 2024 and 2025. Every bride gets me personally. No allocation surprises, no day-of unknowns.

I've put together a full guide to bridal hair and makeup on the Central Coast on my website — covering the venues I work at regularly, what your morning might look like, travel details, and how to get in touch.

Central Coast dates for 2025 and 2026 are available — send me a message or enquire through the website and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. 💛

There's a particular kind of peace to a Port Stephens wedding morning.

The light off the water. The salt in the air. The dolphins if you're lucky. 🐬 It's one of those places that makes everyone slow down and actually enjoy the day — and that energy carries all the way through to the ceremony.

I travel to Port Stephens regularly for bridal hair and makeup — Nelson Bay, Shoal Bay, Anna Bay, Tea Gardens, Fingal Bay and everywhere in between. Resorts, private homes, boats, beachfront venues — wherever you're getting ready, I come to you.

Hair and makeup, both by me. 18 years of experience, 3 consecutive Wedding Diaries Award wins, and a genuine love for this part of the coast.

If you're planning a Port Stephens wedding I've put together a full guide on my website covering the venues I work at, what your morning timeline might look like, and how to get in touch.

Newcastle is one of the most underrated wedding cities in Australia — and I'm not just saying that because I'm based here. 😄

The venues are genuinely world class. Crystalbrook Kingsley, Noah's on the Beach, QT Newcastle, Apollo International — these are spaces that rival anything you'd find in Sydney, with a fraction of the stress and a fraction of the price tag.

I travel to weddings right across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie — hotels, waterfront venues, apartments, wherever you're getting ready. Hair and makeup, both by me, from start to finish.

If you're planning a Newcastle wedding and you want to know more about how I work, which venues I regularly service, and what a morning with me actually looks like — I've put a full guide together on my website.

Feel free to send me a message here or enquire through the website to check your date. 2025 and 2026 are filling fast. 💛

The Hunter Valley is my favourite place to work. I'll just say it. 🍷

There's something about arriving at a Pokolbin vineyard on a wedding morning — the vines catching the early light, the property quiet and private, the whole day still ahead — that never gets old. After 18 years of doing this, it still stops me in my tracks.

I travel to weddings right across the Hunter Valley — Pokolbin, Lovedale, Cessnock, Broke, Maitland, Singleton and everywhere in between. I do hair and makeup together, which means one artist, one calm morning, one coordinated timeline.

If you're planning a Hunter Valley wedding and you'd like to know more about how I work, what venues I regularly service, and what to expect from your morning — I've put together a full guide on my website.

Let's talk about the bridal party morning — because I think it's one of the most underrated parts of the whole wedding day.

When it goes well, it's honestly magical. Everyone in the same room, getting ready together, the energy building slowly toward the ceremony. Laughter, nerves, happy tears — I see all of it and I love every moment.

When it doesn't go well — usually because timelines are rushed, or two separate artists are working to different schedules — it sets a stressful tone for the whole day.

That's one of the things I hear most from brides who've used me for their whole party: the morning just felt calm. One person, one timeline, everyone ready on time with room to breathe before the ceremony.

I work with bridal parties of all sizes right across the Hunter Valley, Maitland, Newcastle, Port Stephens and the Central Coast. Bride, bridesmaids, mothers of the bride and groom — hair and makeup for everyone, all by me, all in one coordinated schedule.

If you're planning a Hunter Valley or Maitland area wedding and you want a bridal party artist who travels to you and handles everything — send me a message or head to bellus.com.au to check your date. 💛

Is your wedding venue as breathtaking as 8 at Trinity? ✨

Perched on the edge of Lake Macquarie at Trinity Point, 8 at Trinity in Morisset Park is one of the most architecturally stunning wedding destinations in the region. Mediterranean-inspired, grand in scale, with sweeping views of Barden's Bay and manicured lawns made for ceremonies that genuinely take your breath away.

A venue this beautiful deserves a look that belongs in it.

I'm Amanda — award-winning mobile bridal hair and makeup artist with 18+ years of experience. I travel to you on your wedding morning, wherever you're getting ready near Morisset Park, Trinity Point or Lake Macquarie. No salon run. No rushing. Just calm, considered preparation in the place that feels most like yours.

For brides at 8 at Trinity, I create looks that carry the same sense of presence the venue does — polished, intentional, and genuinely beautiful from the lawn ceremony all the way through to the last dance under those warm restaurant lights.

I handle hair and makeup as one artist — so every detail works together, beautifully.

Currently booking 2026 and 2027. If 8 at Trinity is your venue, I'd love to hear from you. 💛

Chateau Elan in the Hunter Valley is one of those venues that brides dream about.

The French-inspired architecture, the manicured grounds, the vineyard stretching out behind it — it has an elegance that feels almost European, right here in the NSW wine country.

I travel to Chateau Elan for bridal hair and makeup and every wedding I do there feels genuinely special. I come to wherever you're getting ready — whether that's on the estate or nearby Pokolbin accommodation — and we have a calm, beautiful morning before the ceremony.

Hair and makeup, both by me. 18 years of bridal experience. One artist who knows this part of the world and loves working in it.

Some venues just stop you in your tracks.

Audrey Wilkinson is one of them. The moment you come over that rise and the vineyard opens up in front of you — it's genuinely stunning. And getting a bride ready with that backdrop is something I feel grateful for every single time.

I travel to Audrey Wilkinson and the broader Pokolbin wine country for bridal hair and makeup — and I know the area well. I come to wherever you're getting ready, whether that's on the estate itself or nearby vineyard accommodation, and we spend your morning doing what it should be: calm, beautiful, and completely unhurried.

Hair and makeup together, just me. One artist from the first curl to the final look.

If you haven't been to Hunter Valley Gardens, let me paint a picture.

Twenty hectares of themed gardens in the heart of the Pokolbin wine country — roses, sculptures, water features, and colour that changes with every season. As a wedding venue, it is absolutely breathtaking. There is genuinely nowhere else like it in regional NSW.

I travel to Hunter Valley Gardens weddings for bridal hair and makeup, and they are always some of my favourite days of the year. The setting does so much of the work — my job is just to make sure the bride looks as beautiful as everything around her.

I come to wherever you're getting ready — nearby vineyard accommodation, the Oaks Hotel, or anywhere else in the Pokolbin area — and we have a calm, gorgeous morning before your ceremony in those gardens.

Hair and makeup, both by me. One artist, no fuss, the whole morning handled.

Bimbadgen Estate in the morning is genuinely one of my favourite places to be.

There's something about arriving at a Pokolbin vineyard when the vines are still catching the early light and the whole property feels quiet and private — it just sets the tone for the most beautiful wedding day.

I travel to Bimbadgen regularly for bridal hair and makeup, and I know the property well. I come to wherever you're getting ready on the estate — whether that's the onsite accommodation, a nearby villa, or anywhere else in the Pokolbin area — and we have a calm, unhurried morning before the ceremony.

Hair and makeup, both by me. One artist, one timeline, no day-of stress.
