Brittany is wedding-day GOLD!

I had the good fortune of hiring wonderful vendors for my wedding weekend, and both Brittany and her assistant Jessica are at the very top of that list!

Brittany transformed regular me into an incredibly glamorous, blue-eyed, babe of a bride who felt like she could be a runway model. I'm generally a confident woman but WOW I could have taken on the WORLD on my wedding day! I still looked like me - but my best features were enhanced - and beautifully so. Brittany achieved a natural make-up look that I dreamed of leading up to my wedding, and a hair style that I had been lusting over. And both my hair and make-up looked just as flawless at 2am during the after-after party so I'm eternally grateful for that as well.

Also, I'm Italian and it's very difficult to cover up my dark under eye circles on a good day, so I figured a week of sleepless pre-wedding planning nights would be a significant challenge but Brittany (miraculously) airbrushed them away for a seamless, elegant look.

Countless thanks, hugs, and high fives to Brittany and Jessica for making me and my bridesmaids look and feel stunning.

Brides: planning for your big day can feel like an endless stream of Googling various vendors and comparing rates and reviews, but your search for the ultimate hair and make up artist stops here...Brittany's talents are unparalleled!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Absolutely amazing in everyway! Brittany and her team were such an absolute pleasure to work with. I was recently the MOH in a wedding, and I handled the coordinating with Brittany. She was so sweet, professional, flexible and all around easy to work with. The day of was perfect. She was set up by the time we even got there, and made all of us feel more beautiful than I think we've ever felt! At least I know I did! Her and her team are just so talented and personable, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend Elite Makeup Designs! I’ve already booked Brittany for my wedding this year as well!

Absolutely Amazing!

Brittany is the absolute best wedding makeup artist and hair stylist out there. It is obvious that she loves what she does and that clearly comes across when she is working her magic. I've been a bridesmaid in a few different weddings that Brittany has worked on and really hope she's available when my big day comes!

Wedding Make-Up

I can't say enough wonderful things about Brittany Renee from Elite Makeup Designs and would highly recommend her to any bride. Brittany is talented, personable, relaxed and professional all at the same time. She took my ideas and inspiration and created a look that was gorgeous, flawless and totally me; I've never felt more beautiful. She also did a wonderful job on my bridesmaids, really taking into account each personality, skin / face type, coloring, etc. and tailored each look to their specific requests. They looked absolutely stunning and kept telling me how much they loved their makeup. Most importantly, the make-up photographed so beautifully and was perfect from the start of the day to the very end.

I cannot speak highly enough about Elite Makeup Designs. I was a bridesmaid in a wedding that booked her services and I was so in love with my hair/makeup that day, I booked her for my own wedding the following year. Brittany and her team cranked out 10 bridesmaids, a mom and a grandma like it was no challenge at all. Everyone absolutely LOVED how they looked.

During my trial, I showed Brittany pinterest pics of what I wanted and she understood exactly what to do. When she had me look in the mirror, I didn’t have to request a single change. I felt more beautiful than I ever could have imagined!

I researched a lot of hair/makeup teams and not only do I feel Elite Makeup Designs was the best quality, they definitely had the fairest pricing as well. So many other businesses charge $20-30 extra for airbrush makeup and another $20-$30 extra for fake lashes; Brittany includes those in her service pricing and her prices were STILL lower than the others.

Just as important as the quality of service, was the team’s friendliness and kindness. I hadn’t slept well the night before which caused me to wake up very stressed. Brittany was so kind and reassuring, I instantly forgot how tired I was once I got in that chair… although my mimosa probably helped with that too. Having a hair and make-up artist with a bright smile and friendly personality makes the morning that much more fun :)

Brittany was amazing! She did all of the hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party for my wedding this past weekend. I couldn't have asked for anything more. She was so accommodating for my initial hair and makeup trial and even more so for my second makeup trial when I was looking to make some changes from round 1. She is an absolute professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. I don’t normally wear a lot of makeup and everyone commented on how beautiful both my makeup and hair turned out. Can’t thank her enough for being such an integral part of making my wedding so very memorable.

Brittany at Elite Makeup Designs was referred to us by our photographer Yair Haim and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Brittany and her team arrived on time, got us all GORGEOUS and we were all ready in time for the BIG EVENT. The Hair & Makeup lasted beautifully throughout the evening. We will forever recommend Brittany to anyone & everyone!

I used Elite Makeup Designs for my wedding hair and makeup, and I absolutely loved the way I looked on my special day! They did hair and makeup for me, as well as my wedding party. They took time to make sure that each girl loved the way that they looked, and all of my girls were so happy with their services! I loved the airbrush makeup and how it looked in pictures, it really did last the whole night! Brittany and her team are truly professional and very talented, I 100% recommend them to anyone who is wanting to look perfect on their big day!
