Soft, sun-kissed bridal beauty at Bramblewood Farm

Bramblewood Farm is one of those rare Tweed Valley properties that feels like it goes on forever - 300 acres tucked into the hills above Carool, with a ceremony lawn that opens out to sweeping views across the coastline and rolling hinterland. It's wide, wild and completely private, and the light up here is something special: bright and open across the paddocks by day, then turning warm and golden as the sun drops behind the hills. That kind of setting calls for makeup that looks like you, only softer and more luminous - never heavy, never made-up.

As a mobile sister duo, we bring the salon to you. Tina and Kristen are both fully trained in hair and makeup, so we can get ready alongside you wherever you've set up for the morning - whether that's accommodation nearby or a space arranged on the property. Because Bramblewood is a true blank-canvas farm with big open skies and very little shade, we build your look to hold up under direct hinterland sun and photograph beautifully from the first look right through to those golden-hour views everyone comes here for.

We work in the natural, beach-bohemian style the Tweed and Gold Coast are loved for - glowing skin, soft definition, hair that moves in the breeze without falling apart. You'll feel like the most relaxed, radiant version of yourself, ready for a barefoot-on-the-grass kind of day.

Local knowledge

What we know about getting ready at Bramblewood Farm

The space

Bramblewood is a blank-canvas farm, so there's no fixed bridal suite - most couples get ready in accommodation close by or set up a comfortable spot on the property. We're fully mobile and self-contained, bringing our own chairs, lighting and kit, so all we need is a little natural light and a power point. Tell us where you're basing the morning and we'll make it work.

The light

The farm sits high in the hills with wide, unobstructed skies, which means bright, direct daylight across the lawn for most of the day. We set your base and finish your skin to suit that strong open light, then build in warmth for the golden, sun-dropping-behind-the-hills hour Bramblewood is loved for - so you glow in both.

The timing

Because it's a rural property up a country road, we factor in the drive and the lack of last-minute shops and arrive with everything we need. We build in a buffer so you're never rushed before photos, and we're happy to stay for a touch-up before the ceremony so you step out onto that lawn feeling fresh.

A calm morning

Experience you can trust

A safe, experienced choice for your hinterland farm wedding

Open-farm venues like Bramblewood are beautiful but they ask a lot of your hair and makeup - strong direct sun, warm afternoons, breeze across the lawn and a day that runs long from first look to sunset. We know how to read that kind of light and build looks that hold, so your skin stays glowing and your hair stays soft rather than falling flat by the ceremony.

We're both fully trained in hair and makeup, fully insured, and completely mobile and self-contained, which means one less thing for you to coordinate at a DIY property. You get a calm, friendly team of two who arrive prepared, keep the morning on schedule, and understand exactly how a Tweed hinterland wedding flows.

Venue FAQs

What time should hair and makeup start for a Bramblewood Farm wedding? +

It depends on your ceremony time and how many people are having hair and makeup, but for an afternoon ceremony we usually start around 7:00-7:30am. Bramblewood is up a country road in the hills above Carool, so we arrive early and build in a buffer - you'll never feel rushed before photos. Once we know your timeline and party size, we'll send a clear run sheet.

Do you travel to Bramblewood Farm for wedding hair and makeup? +

Yes - we're a fully mobile bridal hair and makeup duo and we come to you. Bramblewood is only about 15-20 minutes from the Gold Coast border and we cover the whole Tweed Valley, so getting up to Carool is part of what we do. We bring our own chairs, lighting and kit, so all we need is a spot with a little natural light and a power point.

Can you do hair and makeup for the whole bridal party at Bramblewood? +

Absolutely. Because Tina and Kristen are both trained in hair and makeup, we work as a team of two and can comfortably look after the bride plus the bridal party and family. Working together also keeps everyone on time, which matters at a rural venue where the day runs to a tight schedule.

Will my wedding makeup last all day in the open farm setting? +

Yes - this is exactly what we plan for. Bramblewood is open and sunny with big skies and warm afternoons, so we use long-wearing, photograph-friendly products and a finish built for heat and bright light. We can also do a touch-up before the ceremony and leave you with a few essentials so you stay fresh from first look right through to the golden-hour views.
