    Great working with Kelly and Agnes!

    I really enjoyed working with both Kelly and Agnes. They were both very professional but also personable. Kelly always responded to emails and questions in a timely manner. Most importantly, I really loved how my hair and make up turned out! I would highly recommend their services :)

    Beautiful hair & makeup w/ zero stress

    Kelly and Gina were amazing!! They showed up right on time and even finished early, leaving us plenty of time to feel relaxed and enjoy the morning. Every single woman in our wedding party looked stunning and received so many compliments. I felt zero stress because I knew my hair and makeup would be superb. The trial was so helpful to make sure we were totally aligned on what I was looking for and they took all my feedback to make sure the day-of was perfect, and it was. Thank you so much for helping me feel my best on the best day of my life!

    Leave it to Kelly!

    Kelly is a true professional. Her years of experience in the industry really showed, in every step of the way from our first phone call to the very last of the final touches. She answered all of my questions thoughtfully and never made me feel like I was asking dumb questions or that I was overthinking or overreacting.
    When it came to the day of, Kelly and Agnes arrived early and ready to hit the ground running. They made all of my bridesmaids and me feel glamorous, pampered, and beautiful. Both artists were incredibly easy to work with. Everyone's hair and makeup lasted the entire hot, June day. I would 100% recommend Kelly to anyone!

    Hair/Makeup for our Wedding day

    Kelly was our hair artist for our wedding. We had a preview day, and we didn’t totally settle on a hair do because I’m very specific and I couldn’t figure out what was right. I put my trust in Kelly. The day of, she said she had a great idea she had been excited to try. She nailed it. My hair exceeded my expectations. It was perfect for my vibes. It was classy, yet one of a kind.

    Our group was about 9 people. Kelly had Gina come to do the makeup. At the preview day, Gina followed my request of neutral makeup. Once I looked at it, I told her I didn’t want to see my skin, and I want to see my eyelashes from a mile away. She looked at me and said ‘Girl, you mean you want full Glam!’ I’m glad she understood what I wanted, even though I didn’t know myself. I looked amazing on the day, and the makeup made my eyes POP. I’ve had my makeup done by pros in the past, and they were never able to match me well. I usually looked worse. I was in heaven with Gina, I never expected to look that good! It was not good for my ego! She also wore pearls in her hair that day, and brought extras with. She knew I was a boujee bride. I of course told her I loved it and would’ve loved that, TG she came prepared with extras for me!

    The way Kelly and Gina understood me, and came prepared the day of for who I am, was amazing. They exceeded every expectation I had. I’m so thankful that they were my team!!!!

    Three time wedding client!

    Kelly has been the hair stylist for 3 weddings that I have been a part of over the last 15 years! My hair has been different each time and I have always looked amazing! This time, not only was the ceremony outdoors, it was windy with some rain. I danced the night away. My hair looked just as good at the end of the night (early the next morning) as it did at 8:00am when it was done! I’m not sure I have any more weddings for Kelly to do my hair for but I will for sure use her for other special occasions!
    Agnes was the makeup artist for the wedding and she made me look great! I didn’t look like I hadn’t slept in a week (OK I slept but not much) and my makeup held all night! This was my first time with false eyelashes and they were perfect! I will use Agnes for other special occasions as well!

    Great MUA!

    Kelly was great to work with! I was a little nervous about hiring a makeup artist because I didn’t want to look overdone or not like myself on my wedding day. Kelly’s styling was perfect. I still felt like myself, but elevated. The makeup translated perfectly in pictures, as well! After our trial, Kelly was receptive to a few tweaks, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!

    better than i could have dreamed!

    i first booked Kelly in 2019; i had a small wedding party (me and 1 bridesmaid!) and it was a challenge to find someone willing to take me. I was so happy to have found Kelly, and from the outset she was wonderful to work with and absolutely stayed within my budget. Then I had to reschedule 2 times due to the pandemic and still she was so easygoing. I didn't get a chance to do any trials, so on my wedding day is the first time we met and OMG WOW, she killed it! i absolutely fell in love with my hair (and so did everyone else!) and my makeup was on point too. i took a gamble and i was just overjoyed on how it all turned out. better yet, Kelly is also just a great human so having her there for a few hours was so fun. Thank you Kelly!

    LOVE LOVE LOVE! Highly recommend!

    Could not have had a better experience! Kelly and her team made me feel special and relaxed on my big day! They were such a fun and easy going group to work with and they contributed to a lot of laughs that morning while getting ready. From the very beginning Kelly made the process easy and informative. Prices and communication were A+! Myself and my bridesmaids loved how everything looked. Would recommend hiring them for your next big event. They sure know how to make a girl feel beautiful. Thank you for being apart of our special day!

    Beautiful H&M

    It was a pleasure working with Brides by Kelly for my wedding day! I had a large party so Natalia, Kim, and Gina all came to my bridal suite and completed 8 H&M by noon! They were so fun to have in the room and kept us right on schedule! Natalia did my bridal makeup flawlessly! We all felt so beautiful thanks to this team.

    Amazing experience even in trying times

    Any vendor that can be accommodating, flexible, responsive, and truly caring during a time such as COVID...you keep them and refer them. Kelly was amazing from the moment I reached out about booking services through my million emails about what if I postpone/cancel/etc. and beyond. Kelly and her team delivered top notch service the day of my wedding including me changing my hairstyle the day of to accommodate my nerves (plus it was windy as ever). I watched as everyone got made into these amazing looking women but the best part was my mother. My mother felt like a million bucks that day and I couldn't ask for a better feeling for the most important person in my life. If you are looking for a team to collaborate and work with on the most important day of your life, stop now. You have found the perfect team!

    Amazing hair and makeup for my wedding day

    Kelly and Natalia were fantastic! I needed to find a replacement hair and makeup artist just a few weeks before my wedding and I was so grateful to find Kelly. She is so talented (and efficient!) with hair. After a nightmare experience with wedding hair and makeup as a bridesmaid I was extremely nervous and particular about my look as a bride. But Kelly and Natalia made me look and feel so stunning on my wedding day. They completely nailed my vision and feedback from the trial. Plus they were so friendly and fun to be around! I highly recommend them!

    Wonderful hair and makeup!

    I worked with Kelly and her team to do the hair and makeup for me and four of my bridesmaids. Kelly was incredibly flexible, and she nailed exactly what I wanted for my look - I was so happy how I looked on my big day, and could not have asked for a better experience!

    They do beautiful work!

    I had two hair and makeup trials before contacting Brides by Kelly, and I was disappointed in them both. Kelly asked me right away to send her specifics about what I was disappointed in, what I wanted, how I usually wore my hair and makeup and asked for pictures for inspiration. I really appreciated her eagerness to make sure a third trial with her girls went better. I did a hair trial with Ryan and makeup with Natalia. Both of them knocked it out of the park, and I felt a huge weight lift from my shoulders, and booked them right away. Hair and makeup was not something I had expected to be stressful, but Kelly, Ryan and Natalia wanted to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. On the day of the wedding, Ryan and Natalia were AMAZING. They were right on time, were fun and chatty with my mom and my bridesmaids and of course, their work was beautiful. All my girls loved their hair and makeup. Some girls knew what they wanted for hair, some girls let Ryan do her thing, but all of them turned out absolutely gorgeous. Natalia has such a knack for enhancing people’s natural beauty, and paying attention to their skin and preferences instead of just painting a face on. My hair and makeup turned out even better than the trials (and both girls made changes based on a few notes I gave them) and they both held up all night even after dancing the night away! I would absolutely recommend them. They did a beautiful job, and I’m so appreciative!

    Christmas Wedding

    Kelly and her crew were excellent at accommodating my December 23rd wedding. Paige did an amazing job with my make up and Kelly made sure my hair was done the way that I wanted it even if that meant touching up a curl or two. Brides by Kelly is a great business who goes above and beyond to make sure their bride is happy and feels extra beautiful on their special day!

    Loved working with Kelly and her team!

    I was a little late to the process of booking hair and makeup. At 4 months out before my wedding I got in touch with Kelly and let her know we had a large group (15). She responded immediately with pricing and walked me through the options. I also needed my hair cut and colored with very little notice before my bachelorette weekend, and she fit me in at the last minute. On the day of, my girls and I were extremely satisfied with our hair and makeup. Kelly and Agnes did my hair and makeup and I felt stunning. Kelly did exactly what I wanted to match the hair trial and Agnes made a few changes I requested from the trial. Overall, Kelly's team is great - professional, prompt, and able to deliver! I would highly recommend.

    Amazing Price, Amazing Service and Great Quality!

    Looking for a reasonably priced hair and make up stylist in the city is no easy task. Kelly and her crew were recommended to me by a friend and they truly did a really great job on myself, my bridesmaids and mother's hair and make-up. There was a point on the day of where I thought my hair did not look as full as it did during the trial and she listened to what I had to say and re-did my hair! I was so thankful she was ok with re-doing it and it ended up looking exactly how I envisioned! She was also very flexible with my bridesmaids requests and many changes we had to make from the original estimate. Also, I was concerned about how my hair and make up would stay throughout the day. Through hours of dancing my hair and make up stayed put! Overall, she was great to work with, great price and we had such an amazing experience!

    Great Experience!

    Kelly and her team were fantastic to work with! They were prompt to arrive, easy to communicate with, and did a great job with both hair and makeup for my larger group of women. The only thing I would say is that my hair stylist left before my makeup was completed, and I would have liked to have had a final spray/touch up before pictures. Other than that, everything else was fantastic. I would definitely recommend them!

    Kelly (hair) and Agnes (make-up) did the hair and make-up for our wedding, and we were so pleased with the result. They both were so professional, responsive, honest, and helpful. My bridesmaids, mom, and I all felt like queens and our make-up was set for success on a 106 degree day. Kelly is takes great pride in her business, and she was so responsive as I was working through details for our ceremony. Agnes did an exceptional job with our make-up and she is a perfectionist who really wants you to like the way you look. I would definitely recommend working with Brides by Kelly for your wedding!
