Marti was great. I had 3 previous make-up consultations, each one making me look like i had stage make-up on. I stressed to Marti that I wanted a natural look, and she did wonders. She was careful to make sure that I was comfortable with everything that she was doing. In fact, she listened so well that i had to tell her to put more make-up on. This was perfect for me because i felt that i had complete control over the process. Lastly, my fiance hates it when i put on too much make-up and so when he told me that my make-up was perfect, i knew marti had done a spectacular job.

Marti did my sister?s and my makeup at both of our weddings. I had makeup trials with 4 different makeup artists before contracting with Marti. The other women covered my eyes with dark charcoals and grays for dramatic effect and never listened to my desire to have more subtle colors. Marti took the time to find out wanted and was able to capture the colors and effect I envisioned for my wedding day. Additionally, she was a pleasure to work with. I will undoubtedly return to Marti any time I need makeup done in the future.

Marti was amazing! I loved how she did my makeup and I was very pleased with the bridesmaids makeup too (the girls loved it!) as well as my mom! I got so many compliments and Marti did a great job of bringing out the green in my eyes. I would recommend Marti to all of my friends!

Marti did an amazing job on everyone's makeup!!! She arrived early and did makeup for the bride, mother of the bride, mother of the groom, bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids, and flower girls. The make up for each person was complimentary and beautiful. No one looked over done. Guests (and parents) particularly commented on how well she did on the young girls - she made them up without making them look made up!! My makeup was perfect. Marti has a great personality and was a welcome addition to our getting ready "party." She listens to what her subject wants and carrys out a vision she agrees upon with the bride! Everyone looked so beautiful!

Marti did an amazing job on my makeup on my wedding day. She was the second makeup artist I had a trial with and she did a great job. She talked with me about what kind of look I was going for and she did exactly what I wanted. During the trial I told her I wanted my eyes to pop and she let me look at my eye makeup and see if it was enough or if I wanted more. She was so nice!
On wedding day she came to my hotel to do my makeup and was about 30 minutes early and came with everything she needed. She was very professional and got along with everyone including my photographer. I highly recommend Marti if your looking for lightweight makeup that will make you look and feel beautiful on your wedding day!

Marti was great. She traveled to the hotel where we were getting ready and did make-up for me and my maid of honor. She was early, which was great, because there was no rush. She is so personable and relaxed that she kept me relaxed, too. After I got home from my trial, I decided that I wanted different lip color. When I emailed her, she said no problem and she noted that on the very detailed notes that she made of the trial for use on the day of. I can't recommend her enough.

I located Marti originally from the Knot. I then spent a good deal of time searching for her information online, for reviews given by other customers. I was struck by the fact that, on multiple wedding websites, she received several reviews, all of which were overwhelmingly positive. I felt pretty strongly that, for the amount of money you invest in a photographer you should be camera-ready that day, so investing in a makeup artist was important to me and I just wanted to find the right person for the job. My goal was to look beautiful and polished, but not airbrushed. When I contacted Marti, she made it clear from the start (and pictures of other brides showed this too) that she is not heavy-handed. She also has a very impressive resume and has made a career of helping women to look beautiful. We met for a trial sometime in the spring of 2009, and despite the fact that I had completely lost my voice and couldn't talk above a whisper, I had a very enjoyable time with Marti. She made me feel comfortable, and she put up with my lack of a voice with grace and humor. I was extremely pleased with the level of coverage she provided, and her explanation of the different steps involved--preparing your skin, matting the skin, and applying the foundation. She was so flexible, and told me that we could do more or less coverage, just to let her know. I wasn't sure what type of look I wanted, so during the trial she picked some colors for us to try on the eyes. She explained what colors are complimentary to certain eye colors and skin tones, and helped me to develop a look that was right for me. On the wedding day, Marti showed up a few minutes early, was bright and relaxed, and took her time with me. She did such a beautiful job. I received countless compliments throughout the day on how beautiful I looked, and I am so grateful. It makes me so happy to know that my wedding pictures will capture me looking truly elegant and lovely and I thank Marti in no small part for that. Perhaps the most amazing part is that, despite the August heat and humidity of Virginia, and a long and hectic day of driving, the wedding, more driving (on Rte. 95 traffic), and a reception that lasted until after 11 p.m., the makeup held up--the only "touch ups" that I needed were to use the oil blotting sheets (that Marti recommended), and one touch up of the lipstick that we bought from her. It was a great day, and I thank Marti kindly for her wonderful assistance in the day.

Marti was wonderful! She is not only personable, but punctual, reliable, talented, and professional. I got a lot of compliments on my make up and my mother-in-law also loved her make up. She has a very " natural" style. Marti was very flexible and went to my mother-in-laws home and then came to the hotel I was getting ready at. She was also very affordable and a lot less expensive than other make up artists. I would highly recommend her services for your wedding day! Thanks again Marti!

A month before my wedding I made the decision to have my makeup professionally applied. Tica Beauty was referred to me by co-workers. She responded and fit me in quickly. She kept in contact with me and on the day of my wedding she arrived nice and early to accommodate makeup for my 2 attendants; while keeping my makeup the priority. She kept me relaxed as my moment approached. I had wonderful compliments on my makeup.

Marti is an amazing person and make up artist! She not only is very talented in what she does (finding the perfect shade of foundation and complimentary colors to accent cheeks and eyes), she is also a wonderful caring person.
From the trial to the ¨big day¨ she makes you feel so important and special and allows you to feel comfortable with your decisions. (For example, even though the color of blue eyeshadow brought out my blue eyes, she could tell that I was just a little timid about it and she made the brown, more of my comfort zone, look just as glamorous!)
On a more personal note, she was very comforting to me when I was worried about arriving late to the ceremony. I had a friend do my hair and he is very talented but it took much longer than expected. She only had about 10 minutes to apply and she was able to do a beautiful job without appearing rushed and was calming me the whole time. In that 10 minutes, I feel like the make up looked like it took hours upon hours- just glamorous! She even helped with my veil!!
Marti is the BEST person for wedding make up and I would recommend her to EVERYONE!!

Marti did AMAZING!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend her(Tica) and without a doubt will use her again and again! I live in Winchester,Va which was a hike to her studio for my trial but was worth it completely! I'm already looking for a reason to get my makeup done again! I had gone for a trial somewhere else proir to finding "Tica" and it was a nightmare! I am so happy to have found Tica and now after seeing the prof. pictures for the first time know without any doubt that Marti is a "True" professional who knows just what she's doing! My mother also got her makeup done for the wedding and is still talking about how wonderful of a job Marti did on her! TRULY A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE!!!!!!! : )

I cannot say enough good things about Marti Wright! I called her less than two weeks before my wedding day and not only was she available; she came out to my house to do the make-up trial. She was extremely friendly and kind and she kept trying looks on me until I found the one I liked. Then on the day of my wedding she arrived early like she said she would and she got right to work. We had a very fun experience getting ready in my bridal suite and Marti was lively and joking and laughing right along with us like we had known each other forever. She was the absolute right person to have done our make-up on my wedding day because she made everyone laugh and also feel calm and relaxed at the same time. Marti did my sister, my mother, and my own make-up and it all came out beautifully. She never met my mother or my sister before that day but she gave them looks that enhanced their beauty and was not in the least over done for my Sunday afternoon wedding. She also helped the Best woman with her make-up even though I had not paid for it and she did not charge me extra for it - just purely out of kindness and generosity. The make-up lasted for the entire day - I didn't even need to do retouching! I just can't thank Marti enough for the wonderful job she did. She is professional, responsive, and flexible and her prices are very reasonable. I would whole heartedly recommend Marti to anyone wishing to have their make-up done.
