Mobile bridal artist serving Swansea and surrounding areas
Swansea has one of the most spectacular natural settings in the entire Lake Macquarie region, a narrow channel connecting the lake to the open ocean, with calm lake water on one side and the Pacific on the other. Weddings here draw on that remarkable duality: the gentle lake on a morning when mist is still sitting on the water, and the surf just minutes away. I travel to Swansea for bridal appointments and always love the journey in through this beautiful coastal corner of Lake Macquarie.

Bellus is number 1 for hair and makeup. I wouldn’t choose anybody else. From my wedding to any event I have needed hair and makeup for I have always felt a million bucks. Definetly recommend to anyone looking for a high quality, dedicated professional.

★★★★★
Amanda did a truly amazing job of my wedding hair and make-up! I loved the hair even more than the inspo pictures I showed her. Both hair and make-up stayed in place all afternoon/night long and looked perfect in photos. Couldn't recommend Amanda more highly. Such a friendly, passionate and professional artist. Thank you so much!
