Bridal Glam ✨👰🏼‍♀️

I am so happy I had Carolyn’s makeup artistry for my wedding day!! From the very start communication was great and there was never a question on pricing as everything was very transparent. They worked with me on timeline, adding people to my contract, and made sure everyone was done at my preferred time with time for last minute touch ups. Carolyn and her assistant were professional and so nice. They listened to everything from full glam to more softer glam for some and it was exactly what everyone wanted. They made the morning fun and calmed my nerves. The airbrush makeup felt great and stayed on even with an outdoor ceremony in 80 degree weather. Very happy I chose Carolyn and her team for making me feel my very best on my wedding day😊❤️

Gorgeous Bridal Glam!

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Carolyn and Daly! They were absolutely incredible from beginning to end and played such a special part in making my wedding day feel perfect.

They took the time to understand exactly what I envisioned and brought it to life beautifully. I felt so confident, comfortable, and beautiful, and my hair and makeup stayed flawless throughout the entire day—even through all the photos, dancing, and celebrating!

Carolyn and her team were also extremely professional, organized, and punctual, which made getting ready feel completely stress-free. They were so talented, sweet, and genuinely such a joy to have around on my wedding morning.

I am beyond grateful that I chose them for my wedding day. If you are a bride looking for a hair and makeup team that will make you feel absolutely beautiful while also making the morning fun and enjoyable, I could not recommend Carolyn, Daly, and their team more! 🤍

The absolute best glam experience!

Carolyn absolutely KILLED my wedding glam! From the second she started, I knew I was in the best hands. My makeup looked flawless, stayed beautiful all day, and still looked amazing late into the night.

I got the VIP package, and it was 100000% worth it. If you don’t have that booked - definitely book it!! She stayed with me throughout the entire day, constantly touching up my makeup and lip gloss so I never had to worry about a thing.

On top of being incredibly talented, Carolyn has the sweetest, most bubbly, and warm personality. If you’re a nervous bride, I promise she will make you feel so comfortable and relaxed. It honestly felt like having another friend by my side all day.

One of my favorite parts was that she captured little video clips throughout the day. Those behind-the-scenes moments are so special, and now I have memories I’ll cherish forever.

I truly couldn’t have imagined anyone else doing my wedding makeup. Thank you, Carolyn, for making me feel like the best version of myself on the biggest day of my life. I recommend her to every bride without hesitation! 💕

Long lasting / stunning transformation

Let me just say that if you’re in look for a full glam, this is the artist right here. I booked her just a few months before my wedding in NY, I didn’t do a makeup trial and went off solely her portfolio. Honestly the best decision because she delivered! Blown away at how stunning she made me feel that day, makeup lasted all day in this summer heat! Mind you I am an oily girl ! Would 100% recommend!

Worth every single penny!!!

From the moment I had my trial with Carolyn last year, I knew I was in the best hands. On my wedding day, she seriously made me feel like the prettiest I’ve ever looked. Getting ready with her on my wedding morning, she felt like a best friend I have known for so many years, she seriously knows how to calm your nerves having the best time while creating magic on your face. BOOK THE VIP SERVICE! From the tears to the sweat to the non stop kissing family on the cheeks, she made sure I looked perfect in all those moments.

My makeup was absolutely INSANE! It was everything I dreamed of and more. The amount of I received from my guests was insane! My makeup lasted flawlessly all night. The touch ups here and there throughout the day seriously were the best.

She is incredibly talented, professional, calming, and genuinely cares about making you feel your absolute best. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful and confident on one of the most important days of my life. I will forever be grateful! ❤️

Most amazing MUA ever!

There are truly not enough words to recommend Carolyn and her team enough! She not only made me feel the prettiest I have ever felt in my entire life, but she was such an amazing hype woman the entire morning from the minute she stepped into the room. She lit up the room with her energy and made getting ready such a fun and stress-free experience- I felt so happy and confident sitting in her makeup chair, I felt like I was on cloud 9. She and her whole team are SO talented, it was a super hot day and our makeup didn't move at all. She truly cares so much about her clients and you can tell from how communicative and caring she is right from the start of the process, to the trial, to the wedding day. If you are thinking about booking her, don't hesitate for one second it will be the best decision I would chose her time and time again!!!!

The Perfect Wedding Morning Starts with Carolyn

Carolyn is truly one of a kind! From the moment she arrived on my wedding morning, she brought the best energy. She was like my own personal hype woman—celebrating every moment right alongside me and making the entire getting-ready experience so much fun. Her warm, uplifting personality was exactly what every bride hopes to have by her side on such a special day.

Her talent speaks for itself. Carolyn’s airbrush makeup is unmatched. She created a look that made me feel like the best version of myself while still looking completely like me. My wedding day was incredibly hot, and despite the heat, happy tears, and hours of celebrating, my makeup stayed absolutely flawless through the very last photo.

Carolyn is not only an incredibly talented makeup artist but also someone you genuinely want with you on your wedding day. She has a gift of making you feel excited, beautiful, and completely at ease, and her work is simply exceptional. I can’t recommend her enough!

Glam of my dreams!!

I'll make this easy - hire Carolyn AND do the VIP service! I've been a bridesmaid in 12 weddings, and I've never been satisfied with my makeup. For my own wedding it was extremely important to me to find a MUA who took acute care to listen to what I was looking for - oh my goodness Carolyn delivered! I felt truly beautiful at my wedding. Our day was also 90 degrees and the VIP service was absolutely worth it!! At every corner Carolyn was there to touch me up, and took some of the most precious behind the scenes videos from our day. I truly cannot recommend Carolyn enough!!
