Twin Towns Wedding Hair & Makeup
Soft, sun-kissed bridal hair & makeup at Twin Towns
Twin Towns sits right at the mouth of the Tweed River in Tweed Heads, where the water opens out toward the coast and the Gold Coast skyline rises just across the border. It is a bright, breezy waterside setting, with function rooms that look out over the river, so your photos catch a lot of open light and reflection off the water. We build your hair and makeup for exactly that: a soft, natural, sun-kissed look that reads beautifully outdoors by the river and still holds its own once you move inside under the reception lighting.
We are Tina and Kristen, a sister duo who travel to you. For a Twin Towns wedding that usually means coming to your room or apartment at The Sebel Twin Towns, just a short walk from your reception. You get ready in your own space with a glass of something cold, the river out the window, and the two of us, no assistants and no rotating team. Both of us are fully trained in hair and makeup, so we work side by side and keep the morning calm and on time.
Whether you want a polished waterside-glam finish or something looser and more beach-bohemian for a Coolangatta or Point Danger photo session afterwards, we tailor every face to the bride and her people, then stay close enough to settle any nerves before you walk.
What we know about getting ready at Twin Towns
Most brides get ready in a room or apartment at The Sebel Twin Towns, a short level walk from the function centre, so there is no scramble across a car park in heels. The apartments give us bench and mirror space to set up two full stations and keep hair and makeup running at once. Tell us your room number and we will find you.
Sitting right on the river mouth, the morning light here is bright and a little reflective off the water. We set you up near the largest window we can, work in that natural light, and choose tones and a finish that look right both outdoors for your riverside and beach photos and inside under the reception lighting later.
With your room and the reception in the same precinct there is no long drive between getting ready and your ceremony, which is a gift. We still build in a calm buffer so you are finished, photographed and steady well before you need to walk, rather than rushing across at the last minute.

A safe, known choice for a waterside wedding
Waterside weddings have their own quirks, bright reflective light off the river, warm Tweed Coast humidity, and a long day that runs from outdoor photos into an evening reception. We are both professionally trained in hair and makeup, fully insured, and we know how to choose tones, finishes and longevity that hold up in exactly these conditions rather than looking heavy outdoors or fading by the reception.
When you book us you get the two of us personally, start to finish. No assistants, no last-minute substitutions. That means consistent technique across your whole party, a calm room while you get ready, and someone who knows the bright-water morning routine standing beside you when it counts.

What time should hair and makeup start for a Twin Towns wedding? +
It depends on your ceremony time and how many people are getting done, but for a typical mid-afternoon ceremony we usually arrive around 8:30 am. Because your getting-ready room and the reception are in the same Twin Towns precinct, there is no long travel buffer to build in, so the morning can feel calmer. Once we know your numbers and timings we send a run sheet with an exact start time.
Do you travel to Twin Towns and The Sebel Twin Towns for wedding hair and makeup? +
Yes. We are a fully mobile sister duo and we come to you. For Twin Towns weddings that is almost always your room or apartment at The Sebel, a short walk from the reception. Tweed Heads is well within our core Tweed Coast service area, so there is no extra travel fee for this venue.
Can you do the whole bridal party as well as the bride? +
Absolutely. Because both of us are trained in hair and makeup, we work as a team of two and can comfortably look after the bride plus bridesmaids, mums and family. The apartments at The Sebel give us room for two full stations, which keeps everyone moving and means no one is left waiting around.
Will my makeup last through a long waterside reception? +
Yes. We build for endurance, a base chosen for our warm, often humid Tweed Coast days, hair set with internal structure rather than heavy product, and the option of airbrush or traditional makeup. It is made to hold from your riverside and beach photos right through to the last dance, with no melting or sliding.
