Beautiful work!

Working with Ellysa and Erin will be one of the best vendor decisions for your wedding. They are incredibly talented, kind, and responsive. My wedding party and I are so grateful for their beautiful work and felt so taken care of. Ellysa's makeup work is flawless and Erin's hair styling abilities will leave you speechless. They are amazing!

The best experience!

Elyssa and her assistant arrived on time and got right to work on hair and makeup for me and my girls. They work very efficiently without sacrificing quality which is so hard to find! There were 8 of us that needed services and we were done early. I had a specific vision in mind for what I wanted and Elyssa absolutely nailed it and I felt beyond beautiful and confident on my big day!

Amazing results, flexible, and ON SCHEDULE

I left finding a hair and makeup artist for myself and my wedding party a little bit to the last minute, but I got so lucky with Bride's Best Friend. Ellysa and Cristina were amazing, and actually finished hair and makeup for 6 people ahead of schedule, which on a busy wedding day is SO important! They were also super flexible about people changing their minds on what they wanted, and accommodated us all easily. I got so many compliments on my hair and one of my engaged friends has now booked them for her wedding next summer!

They do have a minimum number of services you need to book if they're traveling to you, but I added a friend to the group and it was no problem for us. 5 stars across the board :)
