Royalty-worthy makeup

Throughout the entire process, April was so amazing and kind. The pandemic wedding season has taken a lot of flexibility on everyone's part and she made it work! My trial was spot on and somehow the wedding day makeup was even more dreamy! She created absolute artwork on my bridesmaids and me. I truly wish I could get my makeup done for all special occasions and weekends... and Tuesdays... by April! She took care of my skin imperfections and made me feel like an absolute queen. Totally recommend. I will absolutely be calling her again! It was so fun to work with her and just an incredible experience all around.

Highly recommend working with April!

April was wonderful to work with for my wedding day make-up. She did an amazing job and I was so pleased with how my make-up looked in-person and in our wedding photos (and it still looked great at the end of the night, after an outdoor summer ceremony & photos and a full night of dancing!) April’s styling was elegant and perfect for what I’d wanted. She did a wonderful job on my mom’s make-up as well - everyone felt their best for the wedding day with April’s help. She was very quick to respond to any questions throughout the planning process and willing to accommodate any requests. April is also a wonderfully positive and friendly person - her presence was very appreciated during the flurry of getting-ready on my wedding day. I’d definitely recommend April for wedding day make-up (or any occasion)!

You must choose april!

April was nothing short of amazing! She did an incredible job on makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, and both mothers. I was planning my wedding from out of state - and from the moment I talked with April I knew I was in good hands. She made the process very smooth and stress free - which I appreciated! She is very accommodating , quick with communication, and has a great energy. Not only are her makeup skills amazing - but she is quite amazing. She is easy to talk to, and honestly made the getting ready process very enjoyable. My mom and I laugh that we keep trying to come up with a reason to have April do our makeup again! If I did everything over again I would definitely choose April again and recommend her 100 times over.

I have no words! April was amazing in every sense of the word. She was very professional but also very easy-going as well... she made you feel relaxed, which is exactly what you need on your wedding day! I am not huge on wearing a ton of makeup and April did it perfectly, it looked so natural and highlighted my features. Pick April for your special day, you won't regret it. My vendors definitely made my wedding!

One of the best decisions I made as a bride was hiring April! April does fantastic work. She was pleasant during my makeup trial, and open to feedback. She made sure I had a look I was happy with, and that I still felt like me. The day of the wedding, she helped me, my mom, my mother-in-law, and MOH look and feel so beautiful! My makeup stayed all night long, and turns out it also looks great in pictures! On top of all that, she is just an awesome person to get to know. April is personable, kind, and encouraging. We developed a relationship, and we've kept talking even since the wedding. April is the best!!
