LONG JETTY: Mobile Bridal Beauty
Bridal hair and makeup in Long Jetty usually happens somewhere along the lake, in one of the café strip's holiday rentals, a family home, or a friend's place with a water view. As a mobile artist, I bring every product, tool and towel with me, so your morning stays exactly where you already feel comfortable, with nothing to pack up and nowhere to drive to. It's a relaxed way to start a Central Coast wedding day, and it means your bridal party can wander down to look at the water whenever there's a natural gap in the schedule.
I work across this stretch of the coast often, from Long Jetty through to The Entrance and inland towards Bateau Bay, so I know this lakeside stretch well and build every timeline around your exact ceremony spot.
Every bride receives the same considered preparation, professional-grade products, a personalised schedule, and one point of contact from your hair and makeup preview through to send-off, so the only thing left to do on the morning is walk out the door.
WHY LISA: Real Wedding Experience
Across hundreds of weddings throughout Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, Port Stephens, and the Central Coast, I've learned that the look a bride remembers isn't always the most dramatic one. It's the one that made her feel most like herself.
I use only professional-grade products. My kit includes Laura Mercier, Hourglass, Element Two, Benefit, Urban Decay, Charlotte Tilbury, and Fenty Beauty, a combination that's been refined over decades of working with real brides on real days.
Every bride receives a considered preparation checklist at booking. It covers skin, hair colour timing, brow and lash prep, everything you need to know, so you're completely ready when the morning arrives.
INSPIRATION: Bridal Looks
MOBILE SERVICE: I Come To You
Your Long Jetty wedding morning should feel like yours. As a mobile bridal hair and makeup artist, I come directly to wherever you're staying along the foreshore, so there's no drive across town and no clock-watching before you walk down to the jetty.
Your morning becomes a calm, intimate ritual, unhurried conversation, everyone at ease, the day unfolding exactly how you imagined it by the water. I bring everything I need, set up quietly, and work at a pace that keeps the whole Long Jetty morning feeling relaxed, beautiful, and completely yours.

LONG JETTY
Long Jetty takes its name from the jetty itself, a well-known photo backdrop that reaches out into Tuggerah Lake from the Long Jetty Foreshore Reserve on Tuggerah Parade. It's a genuinely beautiful spot for an outdoor ceremony, council-managed and open-air, so it suits a couple who wants their vows said right on the water rather than inside a function room. For the reception, many of my Long Jetty couples head along the lake to The Entrance Lake House, keeping the whole day within a few minutes of where they got ready.
Whether you need Bridal Hair, Bridal Makeup, or hair and makeup for your bridesmaids, I bring the same considered approach to every face in the room, whether we're working from a café-strip rental or a lakefront home.
Long Jetty's café strip gives the morning a genuinely relaxed feel, and plenty of my brides here like to walk down to the jetty itself once hair and makeup are finished, just to see the spot before the ceremony properly begins. It's a small, walkable suburb, which makes logistics simple even with a larger bridal party getting ready together, and it means parking and access are rarely the headache they can be at a busier venue. I also cover wedding mornings inland in Tuggerah for couples celebrating a little further from the lake.
I always confirm a wet-weather backup with couples marrying at the Foreshore Reserve, since it's an open-air council space with no indoor fallback. Building that plan in early means hair and makeup timing never has to change at the last minute, whatever the forecast does.
ESTILLO: Your Long Jetty Preview
I built Estillo into a home for my business and a growing community of talented creative professionals in Cardiff, a comfortable drive from Long Jetty.
For my Long Jetty brides, Estillo is where the wedding morning really begins. It's where I invite you in for your hair and makeup preview, refining every detail of your look before you're standing on the jetty itself.
Whether your ceremony is at the Long Jetty Foreshore Reserve or your reception is at The Entrance Lake House, your preview at Estillo means the morning of your wedding feels like a calm repeat performance, already familiar.

Lisa and her team were absolutely incredible! They made me and my bridesmaids look and feel so beautiful! I cannot recommend Lisa enough!!
Lisa is amazing at what she does. I booked her to do my mum, bridesmaids and my hair and makeup for my wedding. I was unable to make my trial but with just a few pictures and a quick description she was able to make me look exactly how I had imagined. We all looked stunning, felt beautiful and the hair and makeup lasted all night. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.

NOTES: From Lisa
Wedding hair on its own takes an hour, the standard appointment time I allow, though it may run longer depending on the style chosen. I build the timing around your ceremony at the Long Jetty Foreshore Reserve or wherever you're marrying, so there's plenty of buffer before you need to leave.
Every bridal party makeup application for a Long Jetty wedding includes false lashes, skin prep and a bespoke finish matched to each person's skin tone and type, never a one-size-fits-all base. I build a shared theme across the party so everyone photographs beautifully together by the water, while adapting the exact finish to suit each individual. Pricing is confirmed per person as part of your tailored quote.
Yes. Travel within the Newcastle metro area is included in your investment, but a travel fee of $120 applies to Central Coast bookings, including Long Jetty. It's confirmed upfront in your written quote, so there are no surprises added later.
Yes. The Long Jetty Foreshore Reserve is a beautiful, well-known ceremony spot, and I regularly work with couples marrying there. Because it's an outdoor, council-managed location with no wet-weather structure, I always confirm a backup plan for hair and makeup timing in case the weather turns.
