Extenuating Natural Beauty to Feel Like a Princess

Ciao perfectly executes the natural and soft glam look perfectly. The extenuated our natural beauty rather than caking on makeup. Our moms, bridesmaids, and I all felt so beautiful and confident.

Caitlin's team was so professional. Showed up on time and finished on schedule. As a high-stress type A bride, Caitlin definitely chilled me out when my MIL decided she wanted to get her hair done or someone was being a little picky with their makeup. We were cracking jokes and had a very lighthearted environment.

When I first reached out, she told me the most important make of a HMU is to make sure you vibe with them since you're spending 3-6 hours with them, and they were the perfect fit!

Caitlin is amazing!

Caitlin and her team were an absolute dream to work with! From my initial inquiry to my wedding day, Caitlin made everything feel easy and comfortable. I am not a makeup girly, but Caitlin made me feel absolutely beautiful! I did a hair/makeup trial with Caitlin and it honestly felt like we had been friends for years! She was down to earth and incredibly easy to talk to. She took her time to understand my skin and how my hair would react to the heat and the different products she was using. When I showed her my inspo pictures, she knew exactly what I wanted and how to translate my desired look to my face with my skin type and tones. She also recommended a beautiful lipstick which I used on my wedding day and continue to use! She showed up on time (even a few minutes early!) the morning of the wedding and added the perfect amount of energy to the room with her team. Caitlin did my hair and makeup, and both lasted all day through the humidity, dancing all night and even the rain at the end of the night! She truly played an integral part in my wedding day and I am forever grateful for her. I highly recommend Caitlin and her team!

Most amazing, fantastic wedding experience

When I tell you I felt like a beautiful sexy princess, I mean it. Caitlin and her team were just absolutely fantastic from the very beginning. Every detail I wanted was spot on! My hair was everything I had ever dreamed of for my wedding and my makeup was breathtaking. I wish I could hire Ciao Bella Beauty to do my hair and makeup every single day. I have recommended every single person I know or those I have seen on socials looking for hair and makeup, so I can only recommend them on here as well. I will scream it from the rooftops of every venue, HIRE CIAO BELLA BEAUTY!!! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!! Let your dreams and wishes come true and look and feel absolutely amazing

Highly recommend!

Caitlin and her team did an amazing job for my trial and at my 11/11/23 -- and her price point was very competitive! She did an amazing job -- I am completely un-savvy about makeup and she was able to understand and create what I wanted. I loved how I looked and would recommend her whole-heartedly. I'd also love to work with her again for future events.

It was an amazing experience!

I hired Catlin for my wedding on 10.15.23. She did my hair and makeup, my MOH's hair and makeup, and my mom's make up. She did a wonderful job! All of our hair and makeup stayed put all day! She also did a great job listening to our preferences and feedback which resulted in us getting the exact look that we were looking for! I had a small bridal team and only my MOH wanted her hair and makeup professionally done, so I appreciate the fact that Catlin's contract only required the bride's hair and makeup as a minimum.

Caitlin is THE BEST

Hiring Caitlin was the #1 decision we made for our wedding day. Caitlin and her team did hair and makeup for a total of 10 of us for my wedding day and they even finished earlier than what was originally planned. Prior to wedding day, I did two trials with Caitlin. Caitlin has such a calming presence and is truly the perfect person to be there for your special day. #2 best decision was hiring Caitlin to stay for touch ups- DO THIS!! Caitlin stayed through my photos at my venue and left right before our ceremony. She was there for our first look photos, bridal party and family photos and it's so evident in our photos that Caitlin was there to fix hair issues, redo lips, etc. Not only did she notice when my hair or makeup needed fixing she was SO good about jumping in to fix my bridesmaids hair and makeup in the middle of photos too and we are so thankful for this. You will not regret hiring Caitlin and her team for your wedding day!

Flawless hair and make up at its finest

I am so happy and thankful that I chose Ciao Bella Beauty Co.! Caitlin and her team were professional, sweet, positive, and a pleasure to work with. When I met her for my bridal hair and make up trial, I felt so comfortable and at ease to be around her. Not only was she so talented with my hair and make up, she was so down to earth, funny, and such a sweet person. Caitlin also gave me some great tips and was so knowledgeable about skin and hair treatment in preparation for the big day. The morning of my wedding, she was so sweet and helped make the atmosphere so relaxing and fun! I absolutely loved my hair and make up! She put in so much effort to make sure I was 100% comfortable with my hair and make up for my wedding day. She helped me feel so comfortable and my absolute best. All of my bridesmaid’s and my mother’s hair and hair up were stunning! I received so many compliments throughout the night on my hair and make up. I would definitely recommend Caitlin and her team for your upcoming wedding or event!

Absolutely amazing looks with a fabulous team!

I have now had the pleasure of working with Caitlin and her team for three weddings and all three looks have been absolutely amazing! The first time I met Caitlin and her team, it was for my friend's wedding, and not only did I absolutely LOVE my hair and makeup, the team was fun, personable, and set the tone for the joyous occasion! When it was time to plan for my wedding, it was a no-brainer about who I wanted to work with for hair and makeup. The prices were the most reasonable that I had seen, and I knew Caitlin and her team did fabulous work! It was a nice reunion because most of the bridesmaids were the same from one wedding to another. Everyone had different looks that they had wanted with updos, half-up half-downs, natural makeup and more glam. No matter the look, Caitlin and her team made it happen, and everyone looked beautiful! Caitlin made me look and feel like a princess! My look lasted the entire day and night, perfect for pictures! I was elated when I got to reunite with Caitlin and her team and my other friend's wedding about a month after mine. Her team feels like old friends that are amazing at hair and makeup instead of just another wedding vendor. I highly recommend Caitlin and her team!

Always fabulous


We’ve used Caitlin and her team more than once! She and her team did my sister’s whole bridal party’s makeup for her wedding. I loved that our natural looks were enhanced and not overdone. We all still looked like ourselves but felt beautiful. Unfortunately, Caitlin was not available for my big day, but she promised that the girl she was sending my way would do an awesome job. She did not disappoint. Melody showed up, on time and was so sweet & funny. She asked what I wanted for hair and makeup, and I ended up loving what she did. She even asked me if there was anything I wanted adjusted. I pointed out that I wanted a little less eyeshadow and she adjusted it perfectly. I would definitely recommend anybody from Caitlin’s crew for any occasion.

Perfect hair and makeup!

Working with Caitlin was so amazing. She did the hair and makeup for me and my mom before my second wedding celebration, and it was absolutely perfect. She was so much fun to talk with as she was doing our looks--Immediately t was just like talking to a friend. Caitlin nailed exactly what I wanted and it held up through humidity and hours of dancing. I am so grateful I found Caitlin!
