The same week Kay also found out that she was awarded the regional title in the Hair Styling Category at the Internatiational Wedding Awards, which she will then compete in the country finals later this year.

Kay added: “It is lovely because I did bridal styling for many years, I’ve been in business for over 35 years. Around seven years ago I stepped back from it, for a little bit of a change.

"During lockdown I realised how much I missed doing bridal hair, so I updated my skills and did lots of courses to be able to do the more boho looks which are popular now.
