THE EXPERIENCE
©Ozaria Wedding
A tailored support
Before anything else, we will take the time to discuss your vision, your style, and the atmosphere of your day. This conversation allows me to craft a made-to-measure look direction that fits seamlessly with your overall aesthetic. Nothing is generic — every choice is deliberate so that the result feels coherent, intentional, and unmistakably yours.
A curated experience
I am guided by one goal: for you to feel exquisitely beautiful in a way that looks natural, timeless, and aligned with who you are. I use premium products that I have personally tested — products that feel lightweight on the skin — along with refined techniques to ensure a flawless, long-lasting finish that is as harmonious in real life as it is on camera. To help you prepare, I provide a refined beauty e-book with my top tips and guidance, so you can feel confident and radiant even before the wedding day. Whether your taste leans classic, romantic, or modern, I refine every detail with precision and restraint.
A service built on serenity
To preserve the quality of my work and the serenity of your day, I only take on a limited number of weddings each year and never book more than one event per date. About a month before the wedding, I prepare a detailed beauty schedule to ensure everything unfolds without rush — giving you the space to be present, relaxed and fully taken care of.

Bridal preview
Often referred to as the "bridal trial, this appointment allows us to refine and finalize your look so it feels cohesive, flattering, and true to your style. It also gives you a calm and confident glimpse of how you will look and feel on the day itself — long before the moment arrives.

Bridal makeup
This is the heart of my craft: ensuring your beauty reflects who you are, every moment — from the welcome dinner to the wedding day itself. I bring your vision to life with subtlety, precision, and effortless elegance.

« I had the pleasure of working with Mathilde as my makeup artist for my wedding, and she was absolutely amazing! »
« From start to finish, Mathilde was detail-oriented, passionate, and so much fun to work with. She truly nailed my bridal look and made me feel so beautiful on my special day. I really appreciated how she took all of my feedback into account and ensured everything was perfect.
Mathilde also took incredible care of my bridal party, addressing each of our different skin needs with such grace and care. Her professionalism and skill were beyond impressive. Plus, her English is fantastic, which made communication a breeze!
I highly recommend Mathilde to anyone looking for a talented, attentive, and fun makeup artist. She is simply incredible! »

Your bridal experience
The Products
I work exclusively with high-end, professional brands known for their luminous, long-lasting results: Armani Beauty, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, Hourglass, Makeup by Mario, Charlotte Tilbury, and others.
Each product is carefully chosen for its texture, performance, and natural radiance — ensuring you feel as beautiful in person as you look in every photograph.
Booking
My calendar fills 8 to 12 months in advance, and I take only one wedding per day to ensure an exclusive experience.
To secure your date, a non-refundable retainer and a signed contract are required. The remaining balance is due by bank transfer two weeks before the wedding, or in cash on the day before services begin.
All bookings are confirmed on a first-come, first-served basis, and no date can be held without a deposit.
Additional services may be added after signing, though they cannot be removed. If you’re unsure about certain options, it’s best to add them later once your plans are finalized.
The Preview
Your bridal preview is a gentle pause before the whirlwind of the big day — a moment to breathe, to dream, and to bring your vision to life.
Together, we explore your ideal look, refine each detail, and create a makeup that feels uniquely you: timeless, luminous, and elegant.
The session includes a full bridal makeup. If you wish to try different styles, extra time can be added upon request.
I recommend planning your preview once you have chosen your dress, jewelry, and accessories, so every detail aligns in harmony.
Scheduling your hair trial on the same day helps you envision your complete bridal look.
Previews are held Tuesday to Thursday, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, at my studio in Manosque, unless otherwise arranged.
They last 2 hours — a serene, creative exchange where you can see yourself as you will on your wedding day and feel fully confident.
Previews are available only once your wedding date is officially secured, ensuring complete dedication and exclusivity for each bride.
After confirming your booking, you’ll receive a personalized beauty guide and a link to schedule your preview — with gentle advice to prepare for both your trial and your wedding day.
On The Wedding Day
Your bridal makeup takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes, depending on the desired style.
For bridesmaids or guests, allow around 40 minutes each.
I can accommodate up to 8 people in addition to the bride; for larger parties, an assistant can be added to ensure a smooth experience.
Beforehand, you’ll receive a detailed beauty timeline to guide you and your bridal party through a calm, organized preparation.
Please note that hairstyling is not included, though I would be delighted to recommend trusted hairstylists I regularly collaborate with.
Once your makeup is complete, I step away to let you fully enjoy your day.
However, if you wish, I can stay by your side for discreet touch-ups throughout key moments — your first look, photos, cocktail, or evening celebration.
This beauty concierge service ensures your look remains fresh, radiant, and flawless — from morning light to the last dance.
