Priscilla is amazing! When searching for a makeup artist for my November wedding a few years ago, I found her and am forever grateful I did! She was professional, kind, and just a joy to be around! She did a beautiful job on my bridal trial make up and an ever better job (not even sure how that’s possible!) on the day of my wedding. She is easy to talk to and made me feel extremely comfortable. I feel like I’m extremely picky when it comes to my make up and she truly blew me away. I would have her do my eye make up every day if I could! My face make up looked flawless and just natural. I never felt like I had too much make up on, as I know sometimes when you have your make up professionally done, that can be the case. My eyes were absolutely beautiful and I felt like a beauty queen. My bridal party also had their makeup done and everyone was very happy with the result. She works timely and efficiently. My make up stayed perfect throughout the entire day, which was impressive as I had it done early around 8:30-9am. I have had Priscilla do my make up again for maternity photos and once again, felt beautiful! She does a wonderful job and I am grateful for the friendship I gained by using her as my make up artist. I recommend her to all my friends who ask for recommendations for their wedding day or events!

KC Artistry was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day! From the start, Krystal and her team were fast, communicative, and incredibly friendly. As the bride, the hair and makeup they did for me brought me to literal tears - I have never felt so beautiful and confident. Krystal and her team of incredibly talented hair stylists and makeup artists were a joy to have in the bridal suite. They handled my huge bridal party of 10 with such efficiency and ease.

I had the most amazing experience with this incredible hair and makeup team!!! I have never felt more beautiful or confident than I did on my wedding day. Alina was my makeup artist. She was incredibly upbeat, silly, happy, and had great vibes the entire time. I am someone who is incredibly picky about my makeup, and even considered doing my makeup myself on my wedding day. I'm so glad I didn't. Alina was super receptive when I explained what look I was going for. She checked in with me every step to make sure I loved it, and made sure my makeup was perfect for my wedding day. I cannot recommend her enough. I got so many compliments and felt amazing all day. Even through dancing and crying all day, my makeup stayed on and looked great for the entire day. My hair was just as stunning!! Sveta is so talented and can do so many stunning hair styles. I asked for a few small changes from my trial and she executed them perfectly to give me my dream hair for my wedding. They were on time, so professional, and so much fun to work with.

The makeup and hair artist from Best Face Forward were amazing to work with!   They were great from the first phone call when I spoke to Kara and she put my mind at ease.  They are great at communicating, reply in a timely manner, and have a detailed timeline.  The forms that we had to fill out were super helpful in making it a smooth process.  My originaI hair and makeup artist got sick the day of my engagement photos and Kara was able to easily step in because of the forms.  I decided to switch my eye shadow color after my make up trial and Priscilla was helpful in figuring out new colors.  She was also helpful with figuring out which hair extensions and pearl bobby pins to buy.  Everyone in bridal party had different levels of comfort with hair and make-up, and everyone said how great Priscilla and Stephanie were!  We were even ready before the timeline called for!  I would definitely use them for my next event and highly recommend them!

You WANT to book this ray of sunshine! Joie is so good at what she does. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her as both a bride and a bridesmaid, and I have loved the end result both times. Joie brings such a positive vibe to the day, and truly pampers her brides. I did two makeup previews before the wedding day, and being able to tweak things to get it just right meant Joie nailed it on the wedding day and I looked exactly how I wanted to. My makeup stayed put ALL DAY, through tears and all, and the lip touch up kit came in clutch. She and her colleague even got a *flat tire* on the way to do our makeup, and she did not let that derail the morning! She was prepared to do anything to get there. She provides such high value service and really provides a whole experience that you will be glad to have for your biggest moments. Fan for life!

I had the most amazing experience with Wendy’s team on my wedding day. From our first communication, they were incredibly responsive, organized, and attentive to every detail. Due to an incredible life surprise, we had to postpone our wedding. Lucky for me, they were available on our postponement date. Since day one, Wendy has been exceptionally kind, supportive, and understanding. I definitely dropped the ball on scheduling my trial, but Jinay made sure I got it done. She and Emely made me feel like my best self before the big day. There wasn’t a doubt in my mind that I chose the best team out there. They truly took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life beautifully — my hair and makeup were flawless, natural, and lasted perfectly through every moment of the day. Beyond their amazing skill and artistry, they were such a joy to be around. Their positive energy made the day so enjoyable and helped set the perfect tone.

I had originally booked both Hair and Makeup with Cloud & Rea Studio but due to a scheduling conflict Kelsea ended up stepping in the day of the wedding to help me and my bridal party with all our different hair looks. She was great to work with and pulled together 4 very different hair styles while dealing with different hair textures and lengths. We were able to clearly communicate our vision and she brought it to life with skill and professionalism. She also did a stellar job at the end of our getting ready session when my matron of honor still needed to get her hair done and we were running behind to get picked up. Kelsea was able to get her hair done in a fraction of the time she normally would have and it looked amazing all day. We had a late morning wedding with a late afternoon reception and everything held up for all 4 of us through the ceremony, pictures, and dancing. I would highly recommend Kelsea if you’re in the DC area.

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

As a proudly self-taught artist and devoted mother, I bring both heart and precision to every bridal experience. Growing up as one of ten children taught me the beauty of individuality, and that lesson lives at the core of my artistry. Based in the DMV, I’ve built my business on a passion for luxury beauty and a dedication to making your wedding glam an incredible experience. Doing my own wedding makeup was an experience that deepened my appreciation for the balance between artistry, emotion, and confidence. I’m honored to bring that same balance to every bride I work with, ensuring each moment feels luxurious, calm, and unforgettable.

After using Lilly for my own wedding, Lilly was the makeup artist for another wedding I was in. She is AMAZING! She makes you feel comfortable, beautiful, hyped. She’s so attentive and really tailors the look to the person. The moms at my wedding refused to book makeup. They insisted a makeup artist would make them look too overdone. After doing mine and my girls’ makeup, all the moms asked to be squeezed in. Not only did Lilly add 3 extra faces AT THE LAST MINUTE but she also took the time to ask them questions about what they liked/didn’t like to be sure to accommodate their preferences. Lilly has a wide range - from bold to natural. She did a fantastic job at both weddings and just brought such a great vibe. I highly highly recommend her!!

Hi, I’m Celeste, a professional makeup artist specializing in soft glam to full glam bridal looks. I focus on enhancing your natural beauty while creating a flawless, long-lasting finish that photographs beautifully on your wedding day. I customize each look to match your skin type, features, and vision so you feel like yourself just elevated. I have experience working with brides and bridal parties of all sizes and strive to provide a calm, stress-free experience from trial to wedding day, ensuring you feel confident and taken care of.

I cannot recommend Celeste as a wedding makeup artist enough—working with her was truly one of the best decisions I made for my big day. From the very first consultation, she was attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in bringing my vision to life. She took the time to understand my style, skin type, and preferences, offering expert suggestions while still making me feel completely heard. On the wedding day, everything was seamless. Celeste arrived early, fully prepared, and brought such a calm, positive energy that helped ease any nerves. The makeup itself was absolutely flawless—natural yet elevated, radiant without feeling heavy, and perfectly tailored to both my features and the overall aesthetic of the wedding. I cannot express to you how at ease I felt when I saw how clean the brushes and make-up setup was! It photographed beautifully and lasted all day and night without needing touch-ups. What truly stood out was her attention to detail and ability to enhance my and my wedding parties' natural beauty rather than mask it. I felt like the best version of myself—confident, comfortable, and glowing. If you’re looking for someone who is not only incredibly talented but also reliable, kind, and passionate about what they do, this is the makeup artist you want by your side on your wedding day.
