Natural bridal hair & makeup at Waterside Events, Currumbin

Saying your vows on the balcony at Waterside Events, with Currumbin Creek glinting behind you, calls for hair and makeup that feels as relaxed and sun-kissed as the setting. We're Tina and Kristen, a sister duo who travel to you with a soft, natural, beach-bohemian approach to bridal beauty: dewy skin, effortless waves, and a barely-there glow that lets you still look like you on the morning of your wedding.

Currumbin sits on the southern Gold Coast where the light is bright, the breeze comes straight off the water, and the humidity has a way of testing anything that isn't built to last. We plan every look around exactly that. Our products are chosen to hold through a balcony ceremony, drinks over the creek, and a long night on the dancefloor in the waterfront function room, so you stay fresh from your first photos to your last dance.

Because we're a team of two who are both fully trained in hair and makeup, we keep your morning calm and unhurried. No rotating freelancers, no rushing, just the two of us getting you and your people ready, wherever you're staying nearby.

Local knowledge

What we know about getting ready for Waterside Events

The space

Waterside Events sits within the Currumbin RSL complex rather than offering a dedicated bridal suite, so most couples get ready at accommodation close by in Currumbin, Palm Beach or Tugun. We're fully mobile and come to you, setting up a clean station wherever there's a bench and good light. Tell us where you're staying and we'll work the morning around the drive to the venue.

The light

This is a bright, open stretch of coast and Currumbin Creek throws a lot of reflected light back up at you. We build skin and eyes to read beautifully in that strong, clear southern Gold Coast light, out on the balcony and against the venue's big water-facing windows, so nothing looks flat or washed out in your photos.

The timing

Currumbin afternoons can be warm and humid, and the breeze off the creek is real. We lock everything in with long-wear products and a finish that survives the balcony ceremony, drinks by the water and a full night of dancing, with a touch-up plan so you're never chasing your look.

Experience you can trust

A safe, trained choice for your Currumbin waterfront wedding

Waterfront venues like Waterside Events are beautiful and a little unforgiving — strong coastal light, reflective water off Currumbin Creek and real humidity all show up in your photos. We build our looks around exactly these southern Gold Coast conditions, so skin and hair read soft and natural rather than heavy or shiny in that bright, open setting.

We're both professionally trained in hair and makeup and fully insured, and as a sister duo every booking is done personally by the two of us — never handed to a rotating freelancer. That means a calm morning, a look that suits you, and the confidence of knowing exactly who's turning up on the day.

Venue FAQs

What time should hair and makeup start for a wedding at Waterside Events? +

It depends on your ceremony time and how many people are getting done, but for a typical Currumbin afternoon ceremony we usually start around 7:30 to 8:00am. As a team of two we move through a bridal party quickly, and we always plan to finish with time up our sleeve so the morning never feels rushed before you head to the venue.

Do you travel to Waterside Events in Currumbin for wedding hair and makeup? +

Yes — we're a fully mobile sister duo and Currumbin sits right in our core southern Gold Coast service area, so travel is included. We come to wherever you're getting ready nearby, whether that's accommodation in Currumbin, Palm Beach, Tugun or anywhere along the southern Gold Coast.

Can you do my whole bridal party as well as me? +

Absolutely. Because both of us are fully trained in hair and makeup, we work side by side and can get through bridesmaids, mothers and the bride comfortably in one morning. Let us know your numbers and we'll map out a timeline that has everyone ready and relaxed before you leave for Waterside Events.

Will my makeup last through a waterfront ceremony and the reception? +

Yes. Currumbin can be warm, humid and breezy off the creek, so we choose long-wear products and a finish made to hold through a balcony ceremony, drinks by the water and a full night of dancing. We'll also leave you with a simple touch-up plan so you stay fresh right through to the last dance.
