I am so happy with my services from Arielle and Megan on my wedding day!! First of all, we all looked AMAZING! Starting with Megan who did my hair - I wanted really simple waves with a few strands pulled back and she made it look so effortlessly glam! All my bridesmaids wanted up-do’s and they all looked beautiful and unique. On to the makeup artist Arielle. Arielle provided an above and beyond service we could not have been more happy with her! I think all of my girls, me included, said it was the best makeup they’ve ever had done. My maid of honor was especially nervous because she likes a colorful, fun look and she was nervous a makeup artist would try to dim it down. But of course Arielle listened to what she wanted and absolutely killed it. Before I left, I told Arielle that I need her to do all my future makeup looks lol! I just don’t have enough kind words to say about these two ladies, thank you so much for making my day so special 3

I have absolutely no complaints about my experience with this company! Melissa was great to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had prior to the day. My hair stylist was Wendy and my makeup artist was Adele. I loved starting my day with both of them! They were so chatty and welcoming to all my bridesmaids and had great conversations with all of them throughout their time in the chair. The getting ready room had amazing energy and they were quick without cutting corners on quality. Everyone was extremely pleased with their looks and they lasted all day and night no problem! Dancing the night away had no effect on the hair or makeup and was still intact pretty well the next morning. We loved having Wendy and Adele to get ready! They helped make our morning run smoothly and got rid of any jitters with their fun stories.
