BRIDES STAY AWAY! BUYER BEWARE!
Decent work, not the best, overpriced and unprofessional.

I contracted this service provider for my wedding only a month before my wedding. She agreed to accept my deposit May 7th and balance due May 21st, per her written and signed contract. The package included a trial makeup run, facial, and then the makeup for the wedding day for myself and three bridesmaids. I got my trial run prior to the following.

Donyale called me on May 3rd, a whole four (4) days before my deposit was due, to demand payment “now”. She wanted to know “what you gone do” because she had other clients eager for service the same day as my wedding and they were willing to pay “today” as she stated.

I didn’t have the energy to fight her about it, nor was I willing to pay on demand, so she canceled the contract. She had also mentioned billing me for the trial run and the call ended. I was not going to review her, even though she was ugly and unprofessional. But since she decided to call me again at work, and text me, and furthermore doesn’t understand how contracts work, I decided to review her. She wants me to pay her $80 for the trial run and stated that “I will see you in court” and “ FYI stealing of service is against the law”.

It is and would be had I canceled (breached) the contract. But she chose to dishonor her signed contract for business she had not received yet. I suspect those subsequent plans fell through and now she has nothing but time and opportunity to attempt to collect on what she is not owed. Her contract mentions nothing about paying for included services rendered if the SERVICE PROVIDER cancels for no acceptable reason.

I look forward to being serviced so I can serve her in court. She needs to take a business ethics class and one on contracts too. Reading is fundamental. Brides' lives matter!!
