    Had a great experience with Kendra for my wedding. She did not only my makeup but all my bridesmaids and the mothers. Everyone looked amazing and like themselves but better. Even better, the makeup stayed put ALL night. Would book again with Kendra!

  • Great Team

    Leslie and Jonye at BrideFACE were amazing! I booked this company to do hair and makeup for myself (bride), the wedding party, and the mothers. I also did a hair and makeup trial with them, which was great, as I was able to test out the look ahead of time. Despite having quite a few people, all with different looks and questions, they were both quick and steady with their work, ensuring everyone was in and out of the chairs on schedule. The last hair and makeup was finished around 1, the party went until midnight, and despite rain, humidity, dancing, and more, everyone still looked amazing at the end of the night. The airbrushed makeup was incredibly light and the ability to do individual lashes was also a plus - we really appreciated the attention to detail and perks of working with this vendor. Leslie and Jonye were also so easy and fun to talk to, we really appreciated their personalities and the light they brought to the day. I highly recommend their services!

    BRIDEface is an exceptional wedding beauty team that I highly recommend. They are active listeners who make you feel comfortable, positive, and supported throughout the entire process. The quality of their work is exceptional - they are efficient, pay close attention to detail, and are incredibly reliable and creative. On my wedding day, they went above and beyond to make me feel confident and beautiful. They also listened carefully to all my bridesmaids, mother-in-law, mom, and flower girls to ensure they felt beautiful as well. BRIDEface truly helped make our special day even more perfect.

  • So professional and accomodating!

    The Brideface team was EXCELLENT for the day of my wedding! I had 13 girls getting their hair and makeup done and they stuck to the schedule we had lined up perfectly! All of my bridesmaid and family looked stunning. There was a bit of a miscommunication with our scheduling (we had thought we scheduled them for an hour later) but they immediately made sure that they would have someone there for the entire timing of the event and I barely even noticed! I used Jasmine for makeup and Natalie for hair and they were both incredible. My hair stayed perfectly for the entire evening and I got SO many compliments on how smooth and perfect it looked. It was exactly the vision I had wanted. For makeup, I felt so beautiful the day of my wedding. I am super picky, but Jasmine worked with me across 2 trials to make sure we got to a place I absolutely loved - and she took notes and remember everything we talked about for the day of. Jasmine and the team were also super calm the day of the wedding. She was able to take feedback and suggestions with grace and work with each person until they were in love with their makeup. I think my mom asked her to try 13 different lipstick combos! I would definitely recommend working with Brideface - the team was super professional, flexible, and consistent, and was able to replicate my vision!
