About this supplier

V O W E D is a Johannesburg based bridal makeup service led by Cleo, dedicated to helping every bride look and feel her best on her wedding day. With almost 10 years in the industry and more than 300 weddings since 2015, she specialises in soft glam that accentuates natural features and photographs beautifully. The studio proudly serves and celebrates all couples in love.

At the heart of the service is a signature 7 step skin prep. Cleo encourages good skin care in the lead up to the big day, and on the wedding morning she delivers a thorough, pampering prep session that creates the ideal base for long lasting, radiant bridal makeup. This skin first approach supports a refined, modern finish that still looks like you.

V O W E D offers a personalised, collaborative experience so the makeup aligns with each bride’s preferences and comfort level. From an initial conversation to timeline prep for the wedding day, the process is designed to integrate smoothly with the schedule. Brides receive complimentary false lashes and a touch up kit for later in the day, adding practical extras to keep the look fresh from aisle to after party.

As a freelance artist, Cleo travels to client locations and wedding venues, bringing a fully stocked kit, professional lighting and a makeup chair. She requires only a small surface and an accessible plug point. Her products are carefully decanted and organised for mobility, so the set up is compact, efficient and tidy, and she works neatly without leaving a mess.

Skilled across all skin tones, Cleo is experienced in working with a full spectrum of shades and undertones. Even if a specific complexion is not visible in the online bridal portfolio, her broader event work reflects significant diversity, underscoring her inclusive expertise and ability to tailor application techniques for every bride.

V O W E D accommodates brides and bridal parties, and can scale with assistance for larger groups to keep timelines on track. Early starts are part of the service when needed, and on site touch ups for the wedding party help everyone look their best for photos and celebrations throughout the day.

Whether it is an intimate city ceremony in Johannesburg or a celebration that takes the team on the road, the focus remains on calm, attentive service and detail driven artistry. Client feedback highlights a professional, rm manner and a talent for listening, so the final look reflects exactly what s envisioned.

From skin focused preparation and soft glam artistry to mobile convenience and inclusive capability, V O W E D delivers a complete bridal makeup experience tailored to the occasion. The result is polished, comfortable and personal makeup that leaves brides confident and camera ready for every moment.

There truly aren’t enough words to express my gratitude to Rochelle and the incredible team at Vonvé Bridal Couture for making my dress dreams come true 🤍
From the very first appointment, I knew I s in the hands of people who genuinely care — not just about fashion, but about the feeling behind it. The love, patience, and attention to detail that went into every step — from choosing the gown, to the fittings, to the final moments of being dressed on my wedding day — were beyond anything I could have imagined.
Rochelle, you and your team didn’t just help me find my dream dress — you made me feel confident, radiant, and completely myself. Your passion, flair, and dedication are truly unmatched.
On the morning of the wedding, standing in that gown, I felt like part of a beautiful fashion family that pours its heart and soul into every bride. Thank you for giving me not only my dream dress, but one of the most special experiences of my life. I’ll cherish it forever 🤍✨

A dream I had held onto from the very beginning.
While my heart s always set on Vonvé, it s Chrystyna who made the experience truly magical. Her rmth, love and beautiful light made me feel safe, celebrated, and so deeply understood during one of the most meaningful moments of my life.
She didn’t just help me find my dress — she created a moment and feeling I will carry with me forever. Beyond Grateful 🤍 Thank You Vonvé for your purposeful work !

Choosing my wedding dress has been one of the absolute highlights of my bridal journey, and I truly couldn’t have chosen anyone better than Vonvé to make the experience even more special.
I loved every single moment at Vonvé. Rodé is an absolute gem — inside and out. With the gentlest guidance and the most reassuring presence, she brought such clarity to my vision and made the entire decision feel effortless. She completely understood and executed the brief, while making me feel welcomed, confident, and incredibly beautiful throughout the process.
I’m beyond excited to see this vision come to life on my wedding day! I would wholeheartedly recommend Vonvé to any bride-to-be. 🥰✨

Had the absolute best time at Vonvè bridal. Finding my dream dress. I got to work with the beautiful and incredible Chrystyna 🌸.
From the moment I drove up to the gates it s an experience like no other. When I stepped inside I felt like an absolute queen. Chrystyna sat me down and asked me every important question and made me feel as comfortable as possible. She saw my vision before I even finished explaining it to her. I s then taken back to the fitting room to try on the most incredibly beautiful dresses I have ever seen. And I am so excited to say I found my dream dress that I will say " I DO" in. I am so beyond grateful to Chrystyna and the Vonvè team for their patience and making my bridal experience so special. I am so beyond excited to be a part of the Vonvè bridal family ❤️

I had the most wonderful experience at my wedding gown fitting at Vonvé, all thanks to Marilena. From the moment I arrived, she s so rm and friendly, instantly making me feel comfortable and at ease. She truly made me feel like a bride — special, beautiful, and celebrated.
She s incredibly patient and affirming throughout the entire appointment. Her encouragement meant so much to me, and she gave such thoughtful, honest guidance about what styles would work best. I never felt rushed or pressured — just supported and cared for.
She is such a light, and her positive energy made the whole experience unforgettable. I’m so grateful for her help and couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through such a special moment.

I had the most wonderful experience at Vonvé. From the moment I arrived, the team s incredibly accommodating of my situation and made me feel completely at ease. They respected my budget, my vision, and every request I brought to the appointment, while still offering invaluable expertise and guidance.
Marilena s a dream to work with — she listened carefully, guided me with such care, and ultimately chose my perfect dress. I felt supported, understood, and completely confident throughout. I couldn’t recommend Vonvé (and Marilena!) more highly.

Had the absolute best experience!
I s greeted so rmly by Marilena who listened attentively and selected honestly the most beautiful gowns for me to try on, each with different features to gauge what the final style I s most comfortable with.
She s so lovely and encouraging but also talked with you through what works and what doesn't which I appreciated so much as it made picking the dress easier. I s a little nervous lking in but she made me feel comfortable in a split second which made the experience so wonderful.
Vonvé also has the most gorgeous gowns and I loved the range of different styles they had to offer.

I absolutely loved my fitting at Vonve. Marilena assisted me and s so attentive to the styles I s drawn to, while also suggesting a few unexpected wild cards to try on. The team is incredibly knowledgeable and truly encourages you to explore different styles to find your perfect fit. Once we narrowed down what suited me, Marilena knew exactly which dress to bring next. There is a reason Vonve comes so highly recommended.

I felt comfortable to be vulnerable and felt like my best interest s at heart. It s such a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Chrystyna. Amazing and if I could give 10 stars I would! Thank you so much to Chrystyna and to the incredible Vonvé team. So happy to say that I found my dream dress with the help of these incredible women!♥️⭐️
