Oh, Natalie! What wonder of magic she works! She worked so hard on all of our girls (and then some) for the entire day of my wedding. We started at our hotel suite, and we had girl after girl line up in her chair, and she got through them like a champion! And they were GORGEOUS. I can’t believe how glamorous all of my bridesmaids and family members looked. She was sweet, and we all had so much fun getting ready! In fact, we were so ahead of schedule, we were all just hanging out before my wedding. When we moved over to the venue, Natalie graciously came with us for touch ups, and she has her mobile station up quickly! Thank you so much, Ms Natalie for coming, and I can’t recommend her enough!!

Natalie was great. She is so nice and her makeup skills are amazing. She made my mom look beautiful! Very reasonable rates and didn't charge me a truck charge to go on location. I would highly recommend her to family friends and everyone I know!

I was a nervous reck both my trial/bridal shower and wedding day. Natalie B. was professional and spoke kindly and softly to me… which is totally what I needed! I would recommend to any person booking anything, to make sure that you pay the deposit or whole amount via paypal and keep a spreadsheet of receipts, because last thing you want to be doing is worrying about money on the day of... and last thing you want is for them to say sorry you didn’t pay me and I booked another event on the day of your wedding (which happened to my sister). I would also recommend bringing a foundation that you absolutely love and know works and give it to your makeup artist to use. Go to MAC or Bare Minerals and get the right color for your skin, because in the trial, there was somethings that we ended up correcting before the wedding makeup day. She did take about 2 hours per person for hair and makeup, so factor that into your timeline plans. I would also recommend getting Natalie’s To-Go kit(s) they were so cute and got used a lot day of the wedding when we needed touch-ups. Natalie’s makeup didn’t budge the whole wedding and looked fabulous! I would totally recommend her again. Thank you so much Natalie!!!

Natalie was awesome! All my girls loved her! She was recommended to me by one of my bridesmaids because Natalie did her hair and makeup last year for her wedding. From beginning to end, she was always responsive to my emails, passionate about what she does, very sweet, and made sure I was happy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

I looked at a lot of profiles before choosing Natalie to do my hair and make-up for my wedding. I keep getting drawn to her profile and her price was the most reasonable. I had my trial run and things went great, she even offered to give me another trial run because she needed a different iron to complete the look I was going for. I could tell from the trial she knew what she was doing and had confidence it would work so I did not make her do another trial. Natalie keep in contact with me up until my wedding and was very professional.
I was getting married on the Queen Mary and wanted to bring back the feel of the 1930's to my wedding day. I hired her to do my mother's and sister's make-up and hair also. She did a great job and they were very happy with the result. My mother's hair is very thin, I was impressed how full she made her hair look. Natalie listens well and is easy to talk to.
I was going for finger waves that pin up in the back with large curls. She pulled it off to a T. The make-up was great, I do not wear much make-up so wanted something not to drastic. I LOVE what she did. I got so many compliments through the night people telling me how great I look and that I looked like a movie star from back in time. I could not have accomplished the feel I was going for with out Natalie.

Thanks for everything Natalie.

Natalie did such an impeccable job with the makeup and hair of me (bride) and the bridal party, including the groomsmen on our 8-10-12 wedding. My vision coupled with her expertise and style, was instrumental in the way she transformed me into a beautiful bride. I loved her attitude, and she was very compassionate about what she was doing. It was clear to me she loves her profession and she goes through great lengths to do her personal best. I don't wear much makeup on a day to day basis, and she knew that, and accentuated the natural look for me on my day.

I usually don't write an unsolicited letter of praise for a job well done, but in this case I have felt very compelled to do so. Quite simply there are certain people who deserve to be recognized for their outstanding service, and Natalie Buketov is one of those people.

Natalie your performance, professionalism, and expertise leading up to and during our wedding was nothing short of phenomenal. You pulled it off flawlessly. I will post pics once I get them.

PS.
J&I wish you nothing but the best!!!

Natalie is a rock star. She came in and did everyone's hair and makeup and made them look spectacular. Above and beyond that, when the hotel was being evacuated for a fire alarm she rallied the troops! She got everyone moving. Somehow every bridesmaid and flower girl was carrying something down the stairs. Every dress, shoe, and piece of jewelry was evacuated with us! Beyond that, she scouted a location for us to continue working on hair and makeup OUTSIDE. She'd grabbed her key gear as well as the antique hair pins I wanted put in my hair [my "something old"] and was all set to keep working. Because of her quick thinking we were able to keep the prep going and we marched down the aisle ON TIME! My "makeup chair" was a concrete ashtray that we covered in plastic to keep my clothes clean - it was the perfect height. On top of it all, she even managed to please my cousin who hates EVERYTHING and is NEVER happy with how anyone does ANYTHING. Oh, and not only were we on time, but she was able to help my mom with her makeup and do my aunt's hair. Frankly, five stars is just not enough for this wonder-woman!

I found Natalie on Weddingwire.com and immediately contacted her after looking at her portfolio. I couldn't have made a better choice for a hair and makeup artist for my wedding ceremony and reception days. The first time I met Natalie, I knew she was the one that I needed to hire. I gave her a brief description of what I was looking for on my wedding day and she did that and more. I felt like a princess! She also did a wonderful job on my mother in law and my bridesmaids. She was prompt and so professional in answering my emails and I can't tell you how many times I had to email her because I had to keep changing the services. And she was prompt when she had to come to my house for us to get our hair and make up done. I can't say enough about Natalie. She's the best!

I cannot say enough great things about Natalie! Where do I begin? Natalie is so genuine, sweet, and TALENTED! Natalie can do it all. She also is one of those professionals who listens to you describe what you want and totally gets it. She knew exactly what I wanted and respected it. She was also able to do my bridesmaids' hair wonderfully...some had short hair and some had hair down to their booty! Natalie made my 82 year-old Mom feel like a princess. She also made me feel gorgeous not just because of the hair and makeup but because of how she treated me. Plus her makeup matched my skin better than ever and it lasted all day and night. Natalie is the best!!!!

All I can say is I looked FLAWLESS!!! If you are looking for an experienced make up artist for your wedding, you have to book Natalie. I found her on wedding wire and she had everything I was looking for. Her website and reviews are on point and she was easy to work with. She listened to what you wanted and accommodated all your needs. I was having a diva princess wedding and when she did my trial, I was so happy ( Kardashian "gold" look) when she got it right! She also introduced me to my new red MAC lipstick obsession!!!!!!!!! She was on time and accommodated the extra guests that needed their hair and make up done as well. Thank you Natalie for a perfect wedding!
