Drake Artistry Collective is proud to serve all weddings regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, or religion.
Crystal Drake and Drake Artistry Collective is an on-location team of highly-trained hair and makeup artists, specializing in bridal beauty services. Crystal has over a decade of experience and has served hundreds of brides in that time.
When you book professional hair and makeup for your wedding, what are you really paying for? Hairspray and pins, foundation and lip gloss? Maybe, but not really. What you're paying for is the ability to relax on your wedding day. That is what Drake Artistry Collective offers. We combine our years of experience, attention to detail, and laid back but professional attitude to create a stress-free experience for you and your bridal party in the comfort of your home, hotel room, or venue, no matter where you're located.
We offer customized hair and makeup bridal packages for weddings and special events and accommodate both small and large parties. Our services include:
Airbrush Makeup (complimentary with all makeup services)
Faux Lash Service (complimentary with all makeup services - optional luxury upgrades available)
Bridal Previews (trials)
Tattoo Coverage
Men's Grooming
Hair Extensions
Updos/Styling
Bridal rates start at $560 for bridal hair or makeup (includes Preview and on-location service) and most brides invest in a customized package that is between $1000 and $1700. We create customized proposals for each bride and we would love to discuss your needs and create a customized quote just for you!
Like many others, we ended up having to change all of our original wedding plans and ended up going with a much smaller family event. I first reached out to Crystal less than two weeks before my wedding, and she was nothing but professional from the start. Her process included an initial phone call, questionnaire, highly detailed brochure showing different customized packages, and a timeline for the day. Despite the wedding being so close, Crystal was also able to make time for a trial, and took photos to make sure everything was perfect. She was thorough and organized, and put me at ease immediately. Everything went extremely smoothly the day of the wedding. In addition, she has gone above and beyond to take the necessary measures to keep her clients safe during the pandemic. I would not hesitate to use her services again.

Fantastic Job on Hair and Make up
Crystal and her crew did a great job on all of our hair and make up for the wedding. I wear wigs and she still made my hair look great. Also everything lasted for a long time. Thanks again!

Working with Crystal and her team was a breeze! We chose make up only services and they really did make our visions for the day come alive! Sarah did my make up, and she made me feel like myself but with a much better make up job than I could have dreamed of! The make up was lightweight, so I didn’t feel it on me at all! I never wear foundation so normally that doesn’t feel normal to me, but I couldn’t even tell I had it on. My bridesmaids all looked amazing and cohesive, which was important to me. I booked the retaining services for the time between first look photos and the ceremony starting and I am so thankful I did. One of my bridesmaids forgot her shoes in her car at the hotel about 15 minutes away. Sarah jumped up and volunteered to go get them and she was out the door before I even noticed she was gone. The retaining services was more than just making sure everyone’s make up stayed put, Sarah held my bouquet, fixed my train, and made sure I had everything I needed. She was a godsend on my wedding day. I cannot thank her and Janay enough for making everyone look perfect and thank you Crystal for having such a great team!
Crystal and I have collaborated three times so far, and each time she has been extremely prompt, professional and reliable. Her services are second to none - I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a MUA.
