The Best Experience!
We Felt Like the Best Versions of Ourselves
From the moment they arrived, they brought such a calm, kind, and positive energy that made the entire morning feel relaxed and fun. That set the tone for the whole day, and it meant more than I can say.
Gina made me feel so beautiful — not overdone, just like the best version of myself. She was so attentive and thoughtful, staying with us for touch-ups and even putting together the sweetest little bridal touch-up kit. I felt completely taken care of and confident all day because of her.
And Jasmin absolutely nailed everyone’s hair. My mom, grandmother, great-aunt, and sister-in-law all looked flawless and felt so confident, which was so special to see.
I would also highly recommend doing a trial. They took such detailed notes and really listened, and on the wedding day they were able to refine and enhance my look even more. I even changed my mind on a few things after the trial, and they adapted everything perfectly.
What really stood out was how personable they both were. They took their time, made everyone feel comfortable, and created such an easy, enjoyable experience for all of us!
They are truly talented at what they do, and I feel so lucky they were part of our wedding day.

I've never felt so beautiful!
I got married in Disney in April 2024, but my experience with AFDT started a few months before with booking and coordinating logistics. Nina was an absolute pleasure to work with through this process. Her professionalism, responsiveness, enthusiasm, and upbeat energy made the entire experience effortless. I felt supported, cared for, and excited working with her. So much of the wedding planning can be tedious, so it was an incredible relief to be in such good hands with Nina, who made the whole process smooth, easy, and enjoyable.
On the day of, I had the privilege of working with Rachel (for makeup) and Katie (for hair). WOW! They are truly artists. I have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day. They also did my mother and maid of honor's hair and makeup and we were all blown away by how GORGEOUS we looked and felt. Rachel captured everyone's natural beauty and highlighted our best features while still delivering a glammed-up look that lasted in the Florida sun for a daytime, outdoor wedding. Katie embraced our natural curls (which was really special to me, to be able to wear my hair in its natural curly state) and amazed us with her careful technique, patience, and close attention to detail. In addition, both women were so FUN and so pleasant to work with. We spent the morning chatting and sharing stories, and it all flew by as we we were just having such a joyful time.
I 100% recommend AFDT to any and all - they are the BEST!
Love these ladies!
